Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am friendly, social and outgoing. I am a follower of the Baha'i Faith that calls for Unity of Mankind. I am originally from Iran but lived most of my if Lebanon. Nowadays I am living in Norway with my Norwegian wife, Marit. I love planning in advance and I enjoy traveling.

I have been traveling a lot around Europe but will be aiming to travel to the Far East, Africa and Latin America.

Interests

I like both indoor and outdoor activities. For example, I like role-playing games, strategy games and watching movies (especially at night). I love playing football and i am not good at it. I love hiking too and glad that my wife is a better hiker, and i get encouraged to hike and ski more. I grew up very close to the sea, so I love procrastinating under the sun with a nice book.
