Music, Movies, and Books

Music: a little bit of everything, enjoy the traditional Persian music

Movies: not a big fan of sitting in front of the magic box but I enjoy some classics such as "Before Sunset" or animations such as "Home" or "Inside-out"

Books: long list but my most recent favorite is "Sapiens"
