About Me

I live in a little island in the US that you may have never heard of, it’s called New York 🤪

ABOUT ME:
Facebook: http://www.Facebook.com/SashaEslami

- Startup Entrepreneur
I've founded a tech company called Eversnap. We provide professional photography in the top 25 cities in the U.S.

- Zouk
Recently I've been passionately addicted to dancing Zouk. It’s a dance like salse (you dance with a partner) but to modern pop, hip hop, R&B, ... music

- Music Producer
I grew up learning flamenco and classical guitar. At some point I had my own band of 4-5 musicians. Now I create my own music and remixes: www.SashaXMusic.com

- DJ
I used to DJ and host parties as a side job in college. I used to rent out clubs and throw fun events. A lot of responsibility and kind of stressful, but at the end of the night, when you realize how successful all the efforts have been, you experience an indescribably priceless joy.

PHILOSOPHY

Unconditional self-love and Unconditional Kindness

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It has nothing to do with saving the cost of Hostel or Hotel! Who cares about seeing all the historical sights when you travel! If you come back to the same city in 20 years, all the historical places will still be there. What you should not miss, are the people. The people, the relationships, the networks, the emotions, the lives, the culture, the happiness, the excitement, the new-ness, the couch, everything that comes with CouchSurfing is a one-time experience that will happen only at ONE point in time, and not the next day, next month, or the next years! It opens your eyes, mind, and heart! Carpe Diem!

I love reading books. I read 20-30 books a year. I can talk about books for days. Here is a list of some of the stuff I've read so far (which reminds me I need to update it)
