Hello beautiful people! I am looking to travel and meet sweet souls along the way. I am very easygoing and low maintenance. My friends say I make delicious food and am funny, I'll let you be the judge of that :)

I can't host right now because I sold all my things and left my old life behind. However, as soon as I find a new home somewhere I will be accepting guests. :)

About me? I really feel weird talking about myself because I believe actions speak louder than words.
I am very short, and I enjoy short jokes so give me your best shot!

I have a strange educational background because so many subjects interest me. I have studied literature, Ancient Studies, Religious Studies, Ecology, Biology. I've always been very good at school but I could never handle the system. The anxiety, the exams, the overcrowded classrooms. I prefer to learn at my own pace. I still remember a lot of random information about my classes so ask me anything and I'll do my best to answer :)

I don't like bitter foods or drinks! Sorry but no coffee, beer or dark chocolate for me! Give me some sweet tea, whiskey, and candy any day. :D
However I am willing to taste anything once!

Je parle aussi français si jamais vous cherchez des francophones :)

I was born in Iran but was raised in Canada. I don't speak fluent Farsi unfortunately but I can teach you some simple words if you're curious.

I love animals, nature, learning all the plant names and species in a new area.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I am quite stressed about travelling alone, I've never been in this situation before. I am looking for friendly people who don't mind hanging out and laughing with me. :)
People who enjoy going on long walks, talking about life, watching the stars, and eating good comfort food.

Intereses

I am addicted to books! I don't think I've ever left home without a book in my bag.

I love to write as well, but I am never satisfied by my writing. I wrote a book but I will never have the courage to publish it. I don't mind though! I don't think I want people to read me, I mainly write for myself. I write as I breathe, freely and without a second thought.

I love science in general, but especially Animal biology, Ecology, and Wildlife Conservation. One day I hope to join the volunteers in Africa risking their lives conserving the biodiversity.

I have been on a few Ecological excursions and it was the most fun I ever had!!! Taking notes on tree populations, taking plancton samples, calculating the PH levels in different soil types, tagging micromammals, excel charts, graphs!! Oh yes please! :D

Algo increíble que he hecho

I was volunteering in a hostel in Sibiu, Romania and found my way as a passenger to a car rally. Some Belgian guys drove me and a guest all the way to Bucharest through the famous Transfagarasan highway. They were all driving beautiful vintage cars. It was an amazing spontaneous experience.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I am a volunteer English teacher and have received my TEFL certificate. I can teach you if you want! I can also proofread. I can also teach French!

I love to teach and learn everything I can about cooking. I can make amazing vegan and vegetarian meals as well ;)

I love to share stories, smiles, light, and pleasant moments. I especially love to share FOOD!

Teach me anything! I firmly believe I can learn something new from anyone in the world, no matter their cultural or religious background. Everyone has something special to talk about. Talk to me!!

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I can share funny stories, recipes from different cultures, my kind attitude, help doing chores. I am a good listener and am always willing to talk about anything and finding solutions to all sorts of problems. It sounds weird to say, but I am very authentic. I laugh a lot!!!

I am very respectful of boundaries and encourage you to let me know right away if I make you uncomfortable! I love transparency and if we sadly don't get along we should be able to be open and honest about it :)

I don't expect every single person to like me, that would be unrealistic ;)
