Hello! I'm Haniyeh, or simply Hani. Coming from Iran to pursue my master's in neuroscience here in Germany, I'm passionate about both my studies and sharing cultural experiences.
I'm a naturally curious person—"while I might be a bit quiet or hesitant to start a conversation, I truly enjoy socializing."😊

Small update:
That description isn’t quite true anymore — I can connect with people quite easily now. Still, I don’t want to change it just yet; maybe because this new version of me still feels quite fresh.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I find great joy in connecting with locals during my travels, as it significantly enriches my overall experience. Interacting closely with people from various backgrounds exposes me to different stories and cultures, adding depth to my journey.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
Una Mattina. Ludovico Einaudi
Time. Hans Zimmer
Suite bergamasque "Clair de lune". Debussy
Movie:
There are a lot. Some of the scenes of these movies came to my mind first:
The Color of Pomegranates
Gladiator
