✨ Come as a guest, leave as a friend! 😊
I’m Mahdi, a Persian in Lecce. By day, I’m an engineer; out of work, I’m exploring or shooting photos as a freelance photographer. I love coffee, travel, and meeting cool people. A bit introverted but friendly once you get to know me. Need a place to stay? I’ve got you covered!

☑️ What I don’t care about: if you’re male or female, your age, where you come from, your job, how much money you make, your religion, or the country on your passport. None of that says much about how we’ll get along.
✅ What I do care about: your references, high five if you’ve hosted others, and building a genuine connection that lasts beyond a few nights. Bonus points if you’ve actually read my bio instead of sending a random template message.
🟥 Check my house rules and photos, and mention the keyword listed so I know you’ve read them and they fit your style.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

To give a helping hand, make new friends, and expand my social circle with people from different nationalities. I love to know people beyond what the media dictates and find genuine connections. Plus, there's the bonus of potentially meeting hosts who might extend a helping hand to me when needed. I can't deny that! 😊
