Hi,
It's Ali.
A guy from Iran. Currently in the US.
I have been a student my whole life and apparently I still am! It supposed to be in the US from now on tho!
After realizing that I am a student for life I decided to follow my other interests too.
So I went to YouTube and searched for the coolest hobbies out there and found skateboarding!! But seriously, I found it really pleasing and its aesthetic truly inspired me.
One other thing that I found in YouTube was indie filmmakers who are putting out great content with little to no budget and that made me interested in movies and cinema and so I started watching films from then and even started film making and made a couple of ads and demos for clients.
I was also lucky enough to run a marathon while I was in university and finished in 5th place!

Teach, Learn, Share

I could probably teach you how to use YouTube properly in a way that you can get actually something out of it! or how to skateboard!
I can learn cooking from almost anyone at this point.
And we can also share a run with each other if you are down. I like to run👍

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can be totally invisible throughout my time at their place or have conversations if they are interested!
I have watched a lot of movies and listened to a lot of kinds of music, so we'll never go out of topics to talk about.
