About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploring, reflecting on, and re-building my worldview...
Creating more peace inside myself.

ABOUT ME

I work as a teacher, educator and teacher trainer. I work with schools and help them in bettering their educational program and training their teachers. I also teach middle school :)

I love exploring new places, people, and cultures, as it extends my worldview and helps me grow. Thus, my traveling plans include nature, culture, and adventure.

I do Mountaineering, Canyoning and Caving. If I find time and accompany, I would leave the town and head to a mountain, canyon, valley or a cave! That's where you may find me ;)

I enjoy reading books, having conversations, listening to music, and playing sports (volleyball is my best). I also enjoy sketch-drawing from time to time, during my trips (you may find a couple of them in the photos section). I also enjoy sewing clothes and cloth toys.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed a lot with local people on my way to rural areas in Iran, and enjoyed their warm accompany! and they have come back to my hometown and we have met there again.. This is my informal kind of CouchSurfing :)
My formal CouchSurfing experience is still limited. I haven't had the opportunity to host myself yet; However, would love to start hosting soon.
