I was born in a city called Kermanshah in the west of Iran. I was raised in natural environment full of glorious mountains and I was inspired by the nature and also literature of my country and hometown. I studied MA Persian literature. I started mountain climbing as I entered university. I taught mountaineering courses as well.
I also took ecotourism courses and learned a lot in that time. I have recently moved to the UK to experience a new life.
