Quick Bio

After obtaining a degree from “IMI University of Switzerland” in “tourism management”, my journey as an independent traveler was further developed with his academic knowledge. .

In 2015 after 8 years of being away from my home country to explore and master my knowledge in tourism industry, i finally came back to Iran with a mission to engage my international experience with Iran's tourism industry. my plan was to create a source of practical information for the raising numbers of international explorers and independent travelers who are interested to visit Iran but face problems in different fields.

While exploring overseas in 2013 and 2014, I became an experienced hiker and trekker, leading other trekkers on Annapurna Range in Nepal and to the summit of Pico Torquino, one of the seven highest mountains in the Caribbean. I also conquered the highest peak in Cuba in less than 21 hours (36km distance covered). During this time, I also organized and led international diving programs for westerns for one diving season in Malaysia.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Now in 2018 after 3 years of discovering Iran as an Eco traveler I became one of the key member of our expedition team to host and lead "2018 discover unseen" program with the rest of the team.
