ABOUT ME

Hello! I'm Amin, a linguist and professor of Persian language and literature, currently pursuing my PhD in linguistic theory and epistemology. After spending six transformative years living and studying in France, I’ve been back in Iran for the past year and a half, continuing my academic journey. My passion lies in exploring the complexities of language, and I enjoy diving deep into its structures, philosophies, and histories.

I’m not the most talkative or easy-going person by nature, but I genuinely value meaningful and thoughtful exchanges. I’m particularly interested in linguistic diversity and love learning about the languages and cultures of the people I meet. Conversations about language, literature, and different ways of seeing the world are something I truly enjoy.

Beyond academics, I have a love for cinema, literature, and the quiet beauty of nature. Spending time outdoors, whether hiking or simply enjoying the tranquility of natural surroundings, gives me a sense of peace and inspiration. I believe nature has a profound way of connecting us to ourselves and others.

If you're visiting Iran and looking for a thoughtful connection, I’d be happy to host or meet like-minded individuals to share perspectives, exchange ideas, or simply talk about languages, cultures, and the world around us.

Looking forward to meaningful exchanges and new discoveries!
