Hi, I’m Amin – a Traveler at Heart and Storyteller by Nature!

Born and raised in Tehran, I’m passionate about connecting with people, sharing stories, and immersing myself in new cultures. Couchsurfing, for me, is about more than just travel—it's about meaningful exchanges, discovering perspectives, and building friendships across borders.

I love deep conversations, exploring hidden local spots, and learning about what makes a place truly unique. Whether we’re discussing philosophy, bonding over music, or cooking together, I’m always up for creating shared memories.

If you’re a curious and considerate beautiful soul, I’d love to connect and hear your story!

Cheers!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Exploring new ideas. New people. New Insights. New worlds.

Interests

Long and delightful debates on life are my thing. Nothing cheers me up more than having a gathering with a few like minded and hearty friends.

Music, Movies, and Books

On the top of my music list is blues, always has been. Also a fan of psychedelic pop/trance/rock/electronics. Infected Mushroom and Aparat kind of stuff. Not to leave out Editors and Black Keys.

Sci-fi and fantasy make my couch times. Other than that, Wes Anderson and Guy Ritchie rock.

Kurt Vonnegut and George Orwell novels and Edgar Allan Poe and Hemingway short stories are some of our favorites.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sat on the edge of a cliff, very very high above where the water met the sands, on an island, and watched the sun set.

Teach, Learn, Share

I’d love to share what I know about creativity, cognitive science, and Persian cuisine—whether it’s diving into how our minds work, or cooking up a comforting Persian dish together. I’m always eager to learn about your culture, your favorite recipes, or the things that inspire you. For me, it’s all about connecting, exchanging ideas, and creating meaningful moments through shared experiences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm on the way to become a holistic health coach based on Greek traditional medicine. I can also always get some ingredients and cook some awesome Persian dishes. (Ganbatte).
