Andre Durham hasn't added a story.
My love for Eurovision was immediate. From the first note of the first entry during the 2007 Semi-Final, I was hooked. In late 2009, I started a blog dedicated to the Contest, "Eurovision Obsession" (eurovisionobsession.wordpress.com), in which I explore my passion through reports and posts looking at the ESC from my unique perspective as an American in love with this European phenomenom.
Two years ago, I was fortunate enough to be able to attend the Contest for the first time. Due to a few personal connections and an unexpected payment, I was able to afford the trip. However, despite these things, I still accrued debt for the experience of seeing my biggest passion live.
This year, I am once again returning to the ESC. Not only that, I was able to secure Fanzone (that is, the standing section in front of the stage) tickets through the ESC fan club.
To help avoid the financial strain that I encountered last year, which had effects that lasted throughout the summer, I am requesting financial support to help offset the costs of attending the ESC this year. Those costs include flights, meals, lodging, and tickets.
