originally from Iran and now based in Montreal, Canada. I’m self-employed and love working on creative projects that connect people and cultures. I enjoy meaningful conversations, exploring new ideas, and sharing experiences over good food or coffee. Friends describe me as curious, warm, and open-minded. I believe travel is about more than visiting places—it’s about meeting people and learning their stories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

joined Couchsurfing to meet new people, share cultures, and build connections beyond borders. I enjoy hosting when possible and showing guests the local side of the city, away from the usual tourist spots. At the same time, I’d love to experience other cultures more authentically when I travel—through real people, real stories, and real homes.
