Hi! I'm a tech expert with a passion for travel, culture, and connection. I love learning from locals and experiencing places through their eyes. I can cook authentic Persian cuisine, and if you're interested, I’d be happy to teach you how to cook, code, or even dance! Always curious, open-minded, and ready for great conversations and shared adventures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing to connect with people from around the world, not just as a traveler, but as a learner. I believe the best way to experience a place is through its people—their stories, food, music, and daily life. I love sharing what I know (from Persian cooking to tech tips), and I enjoy meaningful conversations, cultural exchange, and making friends wherever I go.

Music, Movies, and Books

Some of the books that have really stayed with me are Symphony of the Dead by Abbas Maroufi,
Blindness by José Saramago, and Animal Farm by George Orwell. Each one made me reflect deeply on society, human nature, and resilience in different ways.

I enjoy country music, 80s classics, and Persian songs from the 80s. I’m drawn to music that tells a story, carries emotion, or brings a bit of nostalgia.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing I’ve done is a 4-day hike through the mountains. It was physically and mentally challenging—we dealt with rain, hunger, fatigue, and changing temperatures. But it taught me so much: how to adapt, push through discomfort, support others, and work as a team. It wasn’t just about reaching the destination—it was about growing through the journey.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Persian cooking, basic to advanced coding (especially if you're curious about tech or programming), or even a few dance moves! I'm also happy to share insights about life in tech, traveling smart, or living with intention.

I love learning about different cultures, languages, local traditions, and personal stories. Whether it’s a new recipe, a local saying, or a new way of looking at life—I’m always open and eager to learn.

I share good energy, deep conversations, and a respect for everyone’s uniqueness. I’m happy to contribute to the home—whether that means cooking a meal, helping with a tech issue, or simply being a positive, kind guest.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share great conversations, home-cooked Persian meals, and a bit of my world—whether it’s teaching you how to cook, code, or dance. I’m happy to help with tech questions, share travel stories, or just hang out and enjoy a good laugh. I also respect personal space and am always clean, responsible, and considerate as a guest.
