Hi, this is my first blog. and I thought to start a bit about myself. I was born in Persia. You may know about Persian cat or Shiraz wine.

Born in 1967 which seems long time ago. I am the third child of two older brothers. It was a happy year for mum, which she had a daughter that year. Living in a male dominated household most of my toys were cars, and played football (soccer) with my brothers.

My childhood pets: Dad bought us chicks from local market every summer. Summer started from June to August and that was the only school holiday those days. The chicks did end in our dinner plate on winter, when we went back to school. I never ate chicken for a good few months until I got over my chicks loss. During the year we had canary. Once, I had a duck, it was like yesterday that she had to return to the shop because she was too lonely on her own. I was sad loosing her.

My family travel a bit, my first trip at age 10 was to Turkey, Bulgaria and Italy.

After high school I went to Alzahra University and become a Graphic Designer a profession that I do ever since. Coming to New Zealand in 1998 after my university study was a significant change on my career, lifestyle and future. Now living here for 15 years and call New Zealand my ever home. My day job is working as a Graphic Designer and love working with people and community.

My spare time: I have passion for many things from fitness, art, technology, gadget, travel, cooking… and I will post more around these topics.
