Hi, I'm Athena. I'm a graphic designer and digital marketing manager, and I enjoy connecting with people and cultures through travel. I prefer experiencing the real atmosphere of places, local neighborhoods, nature, everyday life, and the stories behind them rather than only tourist attractions. I work as a freelance designer and I'm always open to creative collaborations and projects with people from different parts of the world. Alongside design, I’ve also had some experiences in fashion and beauty modeling, which is another creative space I enjoy exploring. At the moment I'm improving my English. I may not speak very fluently yet, but I'm learning and practicing every day, and Couchsurfing is a great way for me to connect with people and improve my communication. I’d also be happy to share stories about Iran, its culture, Iranian food, and some of the beautiful places to visit there. I'm respectful, clean, independent, and I truly appreciate the spirit of Couchsurfing: cultural exchange, kindness, and meaningful human connection. Looking forward to meeting open-minded and inspiring people along the way. CURRENT MISSION finding my mission! PHILOSOPHY Nothing is accidental...
