CURRENT MISSION: Meeting new people and making friends worldwide for life, leaving a positive mark wherever I go. https://www.thepersianwanderer.com/ ABOUT ME: Persian, engineer, and lived in North Carolina in USA for the past 9 years until I decided to quit my job and start a journey around the world beginning November 2018 for an unknown duration :) I love meeting new people, learning about different cultures, doing random things, traveling, and enjoying the moments.
PHILOSOPHY: Good thoughts, Good words, Good deeds

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting people from around the world and learn about them, their perspectives and culture, and share experiences. Couchsurfing is one of the ways I approach that goal.

I've met pretty cool people through couchsurfing and would like to continue that.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some cool things on science and I promise you would never think it could've been that interesting :) I could teach you football (soccer) tricks, and basically play any sport with you that you want me to. I have a good knowledge of Krav Maga (self-defense) and some nice Kung Fu moves. I can talk about many crazy travel stories/destinations. Teaching you Persian language and culture, and a good company are some things I can share with you. And I love listening to interesting people and their stories, and learning.
