I started my travels by mountaineering when I was at university, 10 years ago. I've been on top of many peaks in Iran and traveled to lot's of cities of my country. I enjoy to be in nature and spending time there.
Also I like to communicate with native people in my trips and understand their cultures, so I prefer to find a place for nights in their houses instead of hotels.
Now that I've visited many parts of my country, I'm eager to visit other countries and find out new cultures.
I'm married to Laleh (https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/laleh-shah) and we travel together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I mentioned in about me part, I like to be in touch with native people on my trips and find out their culture and habbits. So I prefer to stay on their houses and also be a host for foreign tourists in my country.
