About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to pay back my student loans!! (I know not too exciting!)

ABOUT ME

uhm.. hmm.. basically, I live in Atlanta, do immigration law and keep busy as can be! There are 8 million things to do in Atlanta on any given day! I plan on living here for quite awhile although I'm ready to leave the country again soon for some travels, I'm thinking Turkey is next on the list.

I have a couch but I also have a spare bedroom, so you are welcome to it if I don't have any other guests. If I've have free time while you are here I'm more than glad to show you around. There is a MARTA station (local transit) about 15 minutes walk from my house which you can use to see the city if you don't have a car.

PHILOSOPHY

hmmm.. this one might take some thought... I'll come back to it... let me just say that work is not everything, I want a job where I can go to work and work hard and then forget it on evenings/weekends and vacations.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

This is new to me, I just caught up with a friend last night (Starburst) and she told me about the site, I hope to host some people and then also couchsurf some in Turkey. Starburst is about to travel around the world for 3 months so take care of her!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None yet relating to this website, although sometimes when I go out I end up couchsurfing at random places.

Interests

I enjoy meeting people from all over, I've been studying Farsi for about 12 years now and translate for refugees and sometimes at the jail. And for those of you who speak Farsi, don't you like how they have Persian and Farsi as two seperate languages? looks like I speak all kinds of languages... be khoda!
