Overview
About Me
I have been passionate about travelling around the world since my childhood and that passion has been with me till now.
I like peace and friendship, also I am open to make new friends. I like to help others and get help when I need it.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I like to meet, guide and host other people and learn new things through contacting different people.
As many Iranians I like guests, also when I am travelling I like to be a guest to get to know new cultures and languages from local people.
