(Update July 2024: heading back to Iran for the 3rd time yooo!) My name is Boryan, but my friends and family call me Sharky. I am a resident doctor in Taipei; just finished two years of GP training, and I’m now specializing in emergency medicine. I played the electric bass in college, edited films for several school projects, and currently trying to be better at off-road motorbiking. No matter it’s crazy partying, discussion of philosophy, or simply hanging out— I’m happy to partake as long as I get to encounter new people and know what they think!

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing
My couch held me at gunpoint, said it wanted to go surfing, so here we are! :D Seriously though, I’ve met some of the most intriguing humans here. It’s good to wander off the track with locals and experience the unexpected. Hoping to form some genuine connections & friendship with people!
Muzyka, filmy i książki
MUSIC: Mostly metal/alternative when I was a teenager (yes I’ve been through that angsty stage don’t judge me lol), very into stoner rock; now I listen to hiphop, house, techno, afrobeat, and occasionally experimental stuff. Hey but I could still easily lip-sync to Lady Gaga hits, or impress you at pop karaoke no problem at all haha. FILMS: Big fan of horror & comedies, but I watch art house cinema too. Favorite films: La Haine, Shaun of the Dead, Bladerunner 2049, Y Tu Mamá También; favorite directors: Edward Yang, Stanley Kubrick, Robert Eggers. Trying to watch more Iranian films recently! SERIES: Currently watching the new season of Donald Glover’s Atlanta! Some other shows I love are What We Do in the Shadows & Bojack Horseman. BOOKS: Reading ‘Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance’ on this trip :)
Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem/am
Arrested by the police in Tehran.
Ucz, Ucz się, Dziel się
I can teach you how to swear like a proper Taiwanese! In return, I wanna learn to deliver the cheesiest pick up lines in your language lol. Slowly learning how to cook some Taiwanese cuisine, might take forever. :P If you make food for me, I will happily devour it even if you’re trying out a new recipe. I’m basically down to learn anything you want to teach me! Always glad to learn about your culture, talk politics, or listen to your philosophy. I can share with you the culture, history, & politics of Taiwan, also the fine art of choosing the right boba tea🧋 ; teach you how to use chopsticks, play Mahjong, play the bass, and ride a motorbike (but not all 4 at the same time, it’s illegal to be THAT badass).
Co mogę zaoferować Hostom
All kinds of stories: from my travels, surviving 6yrs of med school, off-road motorbiking, and weird-ass experiences growing up in Taipei. My off-beat sense of humor, pseudo-intellectual philosophy on life, and sophisticated taste (according to one of my ex lol) in music & cinema. And ofc, helping out with chores or buying groceries.
