I would say i'm quite sociable and curious. i try to connect people over differences. i love Iran, its rich and diverse culture and opinions, languages, religions, customs, the food and the people. for me it's the most hospitable country in this world and i guess my deep love for the value of hospitality will never stop. i like to discuss, to talk seriously, to laugh. i enjoy meeting different types of people with unconventional ways of thinking and living. I love water and swimming in it. I love mountains, climbing, nature. i try to respect human and non-human animals. I'm a queer-feminist. I try to live freegan.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've hosted some people in different places. (Feldkirch, Esfahan, Utrecht and Göttingen) I think its nice to meet people from Cs cause they are often easy going and i gained valuable friendships and experiences! i also travelled by CS and i had good and amazing experiences. I like the idea of helping each other out.
