Hi, I’m Atiyeh — originally from Iran and now living in Istanbul 🇮🇷🇹🇷
▪️ I’m a curious person, always exploring new paths in life.
▪️Sometimes I’m very social, and sometimes I’m not 🧐
But don’t worry! 😉✌️
When I’m not in a social mood, I won’t host, meet, or stay with anyone. So whenever you see me, it means I’m fully ready for talking, listening, discovering, and connecting — like a little energy bomb ✨

▪️For a few years, I worked as a graphic designer in Iran, and teaching photography was also part of my work. After moving to Turkey, I wanted to try different kinds of jobs — and I did. These experiences gave me a deeper perspective on work, quality, and even life itself.

▪️I’m very passionate about art; from ceramics and calligraphy to Iranian music and singing. For me, art is not just a hobby, but a way of self-discovery and building deeper connections with people.
Besides art, I love traveling, discovering new cultures, and having long conversations — conversations full of stories, poetry, music, or even the simple everyday thoughts of life.

▪️One of my big dreams is to have a home in the future that becomes an artistic and cultural space — a place where people can come together, create, learn, and enjoy being with each other. 🏡

▪️These days I’m also learning English. For me, learning a language is not just a necessity, but a new way to see the world from a different perspective.

▪️I try to be a good listener, I pay attention to details, and I’m always curious to hear about other people’s experiences.

▪️I believe even a short encounter can leave a lasting impression.🥂❤️✨

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

First of all, I truly love traveling—and this is not a cliché. It has been a part of me since childhood. Since I cannot travel as much right now, I want to meet countries, cities, and mysterious places through people. It’s something that is within reach for me now, and at the same time, a bridge to my future journeys.
My very first hosting experience was when I was 8 years old: we were on a bus, and I heard someone speaking English. I asked my father to talk to him and translate for me. That person became our guest and visited us several times afterward. It was my most fascinating hosting experience, and from that time on, curiosity has been deeply rooted in me.
For me, Couchsurfing is not only about practicing languages or making friends—it’s about feeling that the whole world is my home, and that friendship has no borders. After immigration, sometimes the lack of close friends is difficult, but meeting new people from different places makes me feel I’m not alone.

兴趣

I love discovering new music and sharing it with people.
Skating and swimming are among my favorite activities.
I also enjoy talking about lifestyle, different ways of traveling, and people’s mindsets. It’s fascinating for me to hear how others experience and interpret the world.

• learning new things

音乐、电影和书籍

I usually like traditional and classical Iranian music
But I mostly listen to instrumental music while working
I am open to listening to every kind of new music.

I read more books about photography and the history of photography, but now I try to read and learn English with basic English books.

usually I don't like watching movies.
But I sometimes watch social movies.
But I prefer to watch disneyland animations and all kinds of documentaries: about the planet, animals, cooking and under the seas and oceans. . .

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Diving and flyboard in Persian Gulf (Khalij-e Fars)
I work in a coffee from workaway that was amazing it was the first experience that I did something out of my field

教，学，和分享

If someone speaks multiple languages, I’d love to hear about their experiences and learning methods. I also enjoy sharing ideas for quick and simple cooking—even just recipes or fun random finds from the internet. I usually cook in a spontaneous way, and I find that randomness exciting.
As much as I know about photography and graphic design, I’d be happy to teach and also to learn more.
If anyone is interested in learning Persian or Turkish, I’d gladly teach. In return, I’d love to learn even a few words or sentences from other languages.
