23 days to Iran!

This picture is my first attempt in covering my hair... I was just looking around the house for what I got and what I dont have in terms of cloths. As I walked out of the office I started to go into shops to see what I could buy. Quite hard, all that I generally saw where short jeans, short skirts, tang tops etc. I need large, wide cloths, not too transparent, not too open. So I decided to first look at home what I had. Seems like the veil is covered. I can get another one in Iran once Im there! For the rest, got to do some shopping, and the rest will come in the bazaars in Iran!

On the meanwhile more remote/out of place comments to me going to Iran. This one came on facebook: "You're going to Iran!?! I don't think there's a country in the world which hates America more." and my Reply " I think you are wrong, and what you say is what one could expect to hear due to all the propaganda from the media. Iran is clearly not all nuclear weapons, anti amercian feelings and extreme muslims. So far I have not met a single Iranian like that. To be honest the more I read and reasearch the more interesting the country seems in terms of hospitality culture and history. I think the country has been wrongly misjuged by all the news on TV, and it’s a pitty people make up the wrong ideas of countries. To see how reality really is, nothing better than to go. Ill be heading over for 3 weeks on holidays, and as far as I can read, it should be a great experience."
