I like reading books, mostly literature and mostly in Persian. I like to read about economics, social sciences, and history. I am also writing short stories and I am translating and writing articles. I like Photography. However, these days I don't spend any time on editing pictures. I like listening to music (mostly Jazz, Blues and Rock, sometimes classic or Iranian traditional music when I am working). I like watching movies but I am not a pro. I don't like Hollywood movies. I prefer watching independent ones. I like hiking and camping. I like to go to nature.
I am not living in NY anymore! :D
