Ali is from Los Angeles. Saeideh is from Mashhad. They found each other in 2015 and have been living in Vila Shar, a suburb of Mashhad since 2016. We spend a lot of time travelling around Iran and post our stories and photos here: http://escapefromtehran.com/

We'll be travelling in Spain this summer, exploring the possibility of someday having a second home there.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
