I'm a freshly thirty dual-national Brit with a shameful lack of exposure to my paternal homeland of Iran, having recently found that my opinion of England -- my life-long residence -- went from OKish to nonplussed. Concerned that my view of the world would be forever channeled through a thick pair of National Health blinkers, I sought to correct my vision, through exposing myself completely to Islamic Republic, that is Iran.
Currently residing in a city soon to be consumed by a rapidly expanding Tehran, I devise noble excuses to escape the haphazard work environment gifted by my family, to experience moments that often require me to fabricates stories for different ears. As cultures crash, flying debris is caught and chronologically arranged for my weekly anthropological vehicle I call ddmmyyyy.org.
