I am Javad. My mother tongue is Azerbaijani. I was born in Iran northwest (East Azerbaijan). I am a professor in mathematics and I love travelling, mountaineering, volleyball, swimming, reading, music and also meeting new people throughout the world. I like to familiar with different cultures, different people and places.

My living city, Tabriz, is an ancient city. In this city the local language is Azerbaijani. There were many poets in Tabriz throughout its rich history. Also, it is famous for silk carpets, Lighvan cheese (Tabriz cheese), candies, nuts and handicrafts.

I like to show Tabriz history and its famous and beautiful historical places to visitors.

You can find my travel and mountaineering photos in my Instagram account "dr.javadfarzi".

I am also regularly climb to mountains and I have climbed two times to Damavand (5671m) and two times to Sabalan (4811m) and one time to Alam-kooh (4805m) and many more times to any mountain in Iran.

I can help you to have a great schedule for you travel to Iran.

Note that in Iran holidays are Thursday and Friday. Clearly, Saturday to Wednesday is working days. For me it is more convenient to host in holidays. For working days I can host but l have to leave home early morning about 7:00 am.
By the way, don’t hesitate to send me your hosting request or ask me any questions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travel is a big fun! It is, actually, learning, confidence and also growing up your soil.
I love travelling!
To be familiar with new people., new places, new dishes!

Music, Movies, and Books

My most favorite music is Persian and Turkish traditional and folklore music: Shajarian, Nazeri, Alim-Qasimov,...
But I love many more other kinds of music in any language.
For example, I don’t understand greek but I love some musics and I can receive the feeling of that music and enjoy. Like an artistic production that without knowing the style you can enjoy it.

Books like "The Little Prince" are so interesting for me!
The last book that I read is "Sophie's World" which is a novel about the history of philosophy.

Recently, I finished the reading of the book “Zorba the greek”.
