About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Surprise yourself!

ABOUT ME

My goals have never been about money. I always like to do something creative. When I research, teach, or create my own art work, I always try to find secrets. Sometimes those secrets are in the stories that people who I meet tell me, in my hidden feelings, or in the illustrations of an old Persian manuscript and..... Infact, I try to surpeise myself by giving myself the opportunity of meeting new people, new places, butiful nature, different cultures and etc...

PHILOSOPHY

I believe life is too short, and everyone should use every second of it in the way that fulfil an indivual. Personally, nothing motivates me more than being inspired to create an artwork, and in that moment of my life I experience real happiness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can help couch-surfers to adventure the place I live in, and I can share my experiences about jurnies and activities I had before. I have lots of artistic skills that I can teach everyone who is curious to learn.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing is the exact thing I was looking for since I've come to the USA because I haven't had any close friend here to have the same interest that I have for hanging out. I met wonderful people through my first meet with CSurfers in MN, and I realized that I can survive in the US with CS.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a movieholic!!!, but I prefer not to watch the movies that don’t have any impact on me, and I forget them easily. Music: I'm a Jazz and Blues fan, and you can find different kinds of ethnic and traditional music in my collection. Books: I'm not a fast reader in English, but I always have a book in my hand even if it takes a long time to finish.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

wild water rafting in Haridvar, India.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've been more than 20 years in Arts and Crafts, so I have lots of artistic skills that I can teach them to others, and actually I used to teach some of them in different level of the educational centers in Iran: Drawing, Painting( Water color, Oil color, Pastel), Persian Carpet Designing, Persian Carpet and Klim weaving, Persian Carpet Repairing skills, Pottery Making, Glass fusing, Eastern Geometrical Design,Wood Carving, Wood Crafts, Metal Carving. Additionally, I have some other skills that I'm not proffessional at them, but I spent some times to learn a little bit about them like Playing Setar( a Perisian traditional Musical instrument), and Persian singing.
