Hello! I'm not very good at these 'about me' sections but here goes. I'm Elijah, I'm 30 and currently I live in a small city called Bangor in North Wales.

I am a steel salesman, I live alone and share my two young daughters with their mother. I enjoy getting out for walks, watching films, listening to music, and reading books and comic books.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Way before covid I travelled to Holland and Canada and benefited massively from Couchsurfing. I would now like to give back and offer somewhere to stay, as well as potentially using Couchsurfing for any future travels.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - Arcade Fire, The National, Deftones, Olafur Arnalds, LCD Soundsystem, The Flaming Lips, Green Day, Cliff Martinez, M83, Tool, Taylor Swift, Beck, Beastie Boys, Breaking Benjamin, the list is pretty long so I'll leave it there.

Movies - Drive, The Departed, Everything by Quentin Tarantino, Spiderman, The Dark Knight Trilogy, Her, Gone Girl, The Lego Movie, anything Studio Ghibli. Again, this list could go on forever.

Books - Anything by John Ajvide Lindqvist, The Bernie Gunther series by Philip Kerr, A Single Shot, American Psycho, The Fault in Our Stars.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Had two amazing little girls :-)

Teach, Learn, Share

Sadly I do not have a lot to offer in the teaching department. I can talk all day about various hobbies and interests, I can show you interesting parts of North Wales, and I can introduce you to my favourite films or music.

You are welcome to teach me, I'm happy to learn, whether it be language, origami, cooking, drawing, etc. But don't feel you have to.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm more than happy to help with any chores or jobs that need doing. I'm also happy to pay my way, I wouldn't possibly expect you to provide everything! I'm also not too bad when it comes to DIY so I'd be happy to try and help out as much as possible.
