Don't tell me this is too long to cover! :)

I've already said this elsewhere in my profile, so keep on reading and S MMM I L E and discover me. The story goes that if you're not smiling while you're reading my profile - well, I can get talkative at times and this time too (why not ... I'm talking to the whole world this time) - you may end up 'word-withered' :)
I've already said this elsewhere in my profile, but I believe I should put it here a second time: Iranians are typically hospitable, but when it comes to Kurdish culture, you soon find out that the people here are quite different. Kurds are a hundred times (or even more) as hospitable as other Iranians. There's a saying that "all Iranians should have a Kurd friend." This means that Kurds are friendly, helpful, and always there in case their friend is urgently in need of assistance.
However, some have told me that they are afraid of Iranian hospitality! They were thinking that why Iranians are hospitable and why they treat their guests with infinite kindness! This may be the result of the give-and-take culture, the dominance of materialism, money-culture, and perhaps the cold behavior in their countries; when it's turn for Iranians and (especially) Kurds, the story of hospitality gets complicated because the foreign traveler expects the same "give-and-take" treatment toward them.
This is an About-Me section ... well, I love traveling and hosting people. This gives me the opportunity to get to know different cultures and mentalities around the world. My studies have made me somewhat familiar with other cultures, but I believe books are not enough and they're second-hand experiences. I prefer lived experiences, however I consider a limit for that.
I'm an easygoing, fun, energetic, lively, flexible, and reliable person. However, I can be serious enough when necessary. Last-minute changes of plan don't freak me out. This doesn't mean that I'm disorganized or have no clear plan. Should I start traveling one day, I will be sympathetic and understanding about everything.
No matter what nationality or language my hosts have, they're worthy of so much infinite respect and proper treatment. *I prefer to host people of the kind.*
I've been a member of CS since 2009. I'm sure you'd ask why I just have no more than a couple of references! :) Actually, it's just because there was no free time to host anyone. Also, my profile was left very simple and incomplete, and it wasn't designed for serious couch surfing then. However, I've met numerous tourists since then, and we had a great time together. Their references are not here for the only reason that they were not on CS :) I happened to meet them on the street.
The glitter of cities are nice and the historic sites are amazing too. Peaceful & quiet nature is what always attracts me. The bird twittering and flying liberally in the sky indicates independent life - a lively Life who aims at your heart, your soul, your brain, your memories...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm not on CS to break the record of References :) I prefer to host those who are considerate of other people's lives and those who are really enthusiastic about getting to know more about Iranian and Kurdish culture and history. I'm on CS to know more about other cultures, other people, and to introduce my own culture and people. CS can be a great experience, both for hosting and for couch surfing :)

Interests

Books, films, documentaries, poetry, traveling, hanging out, composing poetry, and a lot more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The experience that I got from CS website has been so far the most amazing thing I've experienced.

Teach, Learn, Share

I suppose a short integration into the life and community of Kords [that is, the people from Kurdistan] is what I can share during your stay in Sanandaj.
I'm extremely interested in eco-tourism and I want to share my ideas about this inseparably essential aspect of tourism. My guests' ideas on this point is also always welcome :-)
There's only one very important thing - to me, it's the most important thing :) I know you shouldn't jump to conclusions or see people stereotypically; however, as I (and most other CSers) are not gonna live in your country for a long time to have sufficient information for sound conclusions, I'll be judging your nation, your culture, your people, your country, your society, your education, your ethics, and your family only and only by the way you behave and based on the attitude and the conduct you exhibit during your visit :)
(So how do you feel after reading 3 paragraphs? Still smiling?)
I may sound formal at this moment, but I'm not ... no, I'm by no means formal or serious. See the sign? ==> :) I'm just explaining all these things because I'd like to host real people with real practical intentions of developing, supporting, and sustaining tourism industry :)
We can share our experiences of couchsurfing. I'm sure you have so much interesting experiences to highlight. Let's see what your stories are... :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm not traveling at the moment, but I assure my hosts that they'll miss me :)
