Joint PhD in English Literature from McGill, Canada and UI, Iran.
Love animals, nature, traveling, meeting new people, experiencing, learning about cultures, life styles, and worldviews. Mount climbing, bike riding, aerobics, handball, and recently kickboxing have been part of my "physical" life. For the "mental" part I’ve had my books (poetry, self-development, criticism, philosophy, psychology, my-style-movies,...) and solitude! Im queer (LGBTQ2S+) and, personality-wise, an HSP! Im also vegan, for animals!

If I decide to host you, which very much depends on ur profile details and references, u won’t be a “guest”- help urself and feel at home: you are welcome to use the kitchen to cook (and no meat!) or make tea for you/us but u should always clean up after u (make ur bed when u get up, do ur own dishes, etc)! I don’t appreciate those who treat someone else’s place with no sense of ethics or accountability! 🧮 Hosting/surfing is an exchange-lets keep it decent! Writing an appreciative but honest reference is the least we can do to make up for the offered trust, time, food, or couch!🧩
Although Id be happy to hang out if i enjoy ur company and am available, there might be times when i may not want to be as sociable or extroverted as i often try to be - will appreciate not being distracted when i have (online) classes or need privacy.

Update: Hosting you partly depends on my schedule, as i’m often away from Isfahan these days.
