About Me

[2017] Currently I teach English part-time and I understood I was born to teach ...for me teaching is about planting that seed in their unconscious so later it grows to a tree and I have a little part in this ...

If you're coming, feel free to contact me, I might have a place for you in my couch. ;)
I'm a kind of person who would love to see other people happy ....

Well this life is just like a big puzzle for me, I believe every person I meet or whatever happens in my life has a reason to take me to the path I need to really be on, I'm figuring out how it works, let's say I love to know about creepy things and experiences and somehow spirituality and knowing the meaning of life , not through a religious point of view
At this stage of my life ,every single step I take ,everything I do is because I must travel the world, in order to become a better teacher.

[Update 2019]:
So it’s been a while since the last time I wrote this “about me thing”. I have a lot to add it, but just to make the long story short I’d say: There are no obstacles in life. Whatever you see or whoever you meet is just a part of yourself. As we call this oceanic feeling, everything is you... So when you define the reality you realize obstacle is just something that doesn’t exist but in your own mind. Easy to explain but hard to apply. I’ve applied for Arctic tourism in Norway to start my journey around the world. Right now I’m waiting to get the results... wish me luck ;)

[Update April 2020]

I got accepted for the university in Norway to study Arctic tourism however My visa to Norway was rejected last September only because of my nationality. So now, I'm staying in Iran and continue living. I strongly believe, everything will exactly happen in the way it should be. Nothing has a meaning unless YOU give a meaning to it. A visa rejection might be awful, something that I planned for about a year or you could see it in this way that, THERE IS A REASON. [2023 upd: 🤷‍♂️]I already think it was a good thing that happened to me... Everything happens so you realize what life has in store for you, so you take the path that eventually know yourself better.

[Update Aug 2022]

I finally decided to start a trip without return.
Now I’m in Turkey and probably after this I cycle to Georgia… It’s so amazing with all the challenges.

[Update Sep 2023]

Did a 3 months cycling trip south of Turkey and working as a volunteer for the most part of it. Attended the first Rainbow 🌈 gathering there and then I came back to Iran. I felt even more lost and there was a huge brain fog in what path to take and what to do…I started to work as a Yumeiho massage therapist because it gives me more independence…It’s interesting when I read all the previous journals here on CS to realize how fast I’m changing every time. I started a trip almost a month ago and came to Georgia for the Georgian rainbow gathering and after that went to Armenia for a 10-day Vipassana meditation course which I feel very fortunate to experience and feel that it was absolutely a turning point in the course of my future decisions and the direction I would take. I also started an Ayurveda course and I think after coming back from this trip to Iran I switch to Hatha yoga instead of Ashtanga and I start living more independently on Qeshm island south of Iran for some time. I feel my view of the world was constantly changing since the first time I started writing here…
