Born and raised in San Diego, California, USA. Friends call me Peddy. Persian, and currently on a mission to travel the entire world. I was suppose to go to law school, but decided that seeing all 196 countries is my new life goal. I'm an easy going guy who enjoys the simple pleasures in life. Always happy, smiling, laughing, and of course eating

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Coming to South Korea to become an ESL teacher has been the greatest decision I've ever made. I left my hometown for the first time to live elsewhere, also for the first time. It's been an incredible experience being outside of my comfort zone and meeting all sorts of people from all over the world
