When I host guests...
I’m helpful and hands on. I can show them where to go and help them get there.

A cozy and quiet 100-sq-m apartment with direct bus access to Imam (Naghsh-e Jahan) Sq. The area is not touristy, so you can be sure the supermarket stuff, fruit & veggies that you buy have the real local price. ;) There's also a balcony available in case you want to dry clothes, smoke or just get some fresh air.
WE'RE A FAMILY OF 4: I'm a digital marketer/translator and I love nature, animals, sports and traveling. My mom is a housewife (she quit her job when I was born to take care of me) with some music and sports hobbies, who will make sure you eat breakfast (and other meals if u eat with us) a bit over your full potential, just to be sure you don't leave the table hungry :D (She does the same to us!) My dad is an engineer and he would definitely take you fishing if the river was full enough. He loves fishing and teaching it to others. And last but not least, my brother. He's younger than me and will be your contact person in case I'm away (told you, I loveee traveling). He speaks good English, plays tennis and is a student at the same time.
My mom cooks and that's why we offer meals as well (the price is 3$ per meal, whether you want to eat with us or get a lunch box). We have a healthy diet so my mom always tries to buy organic or high-quality ingredients.
**Upon arrival you will receive your "shower kit" which consists of a bath towel, a hand towel, shampoo, body lotion, slippers, and a razor. We change the towels and sheets every 3 days, as we try to be more environment friendly (your slippers are not disposable). So, in case you want them washed everyday, let us know :)
**BONUS FOR EVERYONE WHO LIKES SPORTS: You can do sports with my brother (tennis) mainly over the weekend (Thursdays and Friday). Depending on which tennis court you go to, the cost will differ. But right now it's between 3$ to 4$. **
I can also show you around a bit if I'm available and if you want to. But I work and also travel, so I'm not always free. And I'm not a tour-guide, so no historical info unfortunately ;)

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
