About Me

Hi, I'm a 28 year old who loves traveling and learning new languages. I'm happily married to my wife, who is a Chinese instructor. We both work as English and French instructors, and I also do some digital illustrations in my spare time. We enjoy camping and exploring nature, and our dream is to travel around the world and experience different cultures. We are friendly, open-minded, and respectful of others. We are looking forward to meeting new people and sharing our stories on Couch surfing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couch surfing because I love meeting people from different walks of life and learning from their experiences. I enjoy traveling to new places and exploring nature and historical sites, but I also believe that the people are the soul of any destination.

I think that Couch surfing provides a great opportunity to connect with locals and fellow travelers, whether by hosting them, visiting them, or staying with them. I am always curious and respectful of other cultures, and I like to share my own stories and perspectives as well. I hope to make some lasting friendships and memories through Couch surfing.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm not a big reader, but I have a special place in my heart for The Little Prince, which I have read numerous times. It's a timeless story that always inspires me to see the world with wonder and curiosity.

I'm a huge fan of animation and cartoons, and I have watched almost all of them in this world. One of my favorites is Wall-E, a movie that combines humor, romance, and adventure in a futuristic setting.

I also enjoy watching Indian series and films with my family, as they are full of drama, music, and emotions. I love the songs of Arijith Singh, who has a beautiful voice and a versatile style. I also listen to an Iranian band called He and His Friends, who make catchy and upbeat music that always lifts my mood.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most amazing things I have done was traveling around Iran with my wife and our car, which we nicknamed Panda. We visited several cities, such as Tehran, Rasht, Ardabil, Tabriz, Golestan, Zanjan and Isfahan and admired the rich history, culture, and architecture of this beautiful country. We also drove through the stunning landscapes of deserts, mountains, and forests, and camped under the stars. We met many friendly and hospitable people along the way, who welcomed us with open arms and shared their stories and traditions with us. It was a trip that we will never forget, and we hope to explore more of Iran.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe that learning and teaching languages is a great way to connect with people from different backgrounds and cultures. I am an English and French instructor, and I can teach these languages to anyone who is interested, from 5 to 120 years old. I love talking about languages, grammar, vocabulary, and idioms, and I'm always eager to learn new words and expressions.

I am also a digital illustrator on Ipad, and I enjoy creating artworks of various styles and themes. I can share my drawing experiences and tips with others, and I'm open to learning new techniques and tools from fellow artists. I think that Couch surfing is a wonderful platform to teach, learn, and share with a global community of travelers and hosts.
