im wearing a headscarf!

I am not very used to the head scarf specially when u have to go to the common toilet of the hotel and u need to leave ur room and put on the head scarf!!! Or when u are in the car with the window open and the wind just makes your headscarf go off... But so far so good.

Woke up this morning and got a sim card which is still blocked but I can now recieve calls!! I then asked a question to a japanese couple that was sitting next to me having breakfast and they told me they had met an Iranian man yesturday at the airport that was going to show them the city. I decided to join in. Hosein came with his wife and two girls one 9 one 4... first he took us to the famous Azadi tower!!! Toook the must take pictures. The best is this guy speaks fluent japanese so the entire day we were speaking japanese. I cant speak it and yet I understood quite a few conversations. Such as before crossing the streets. kioskete!! abunai!!! kuruma!! made - kara! ginko!gohan!tanjobi! For the first time in my life japanese soudned more familiar than any other language.

So afterwards he invited us to his home where he had ice creem, corn,pistachos. I also go to dirnk non alcohoolic beer which had a peculiar yet delicious taste.It was great. He then took us to the north by the mountains sa d abad museum complex which was the summer residence. It was great. His family was sooo nice. We put music in the car and we were all singing and dancing to it!!! We had lunch at a faboulous place outdoors where you sit down in the carpets and had some amazing rice and kebab and salad. The day was wonderfull, he later invited us again to his home and he gave each of us a free shirt (or smth to wear..) amazing!!! And having picked us up at the hotel at 11 we got back at 9pm! A long amazing day!!!

Everyone asks me what am i doing here alone, traveling alone. I hadnt contacted my famliy so they contacted my hotel hehehe to ask if i was here and the receptionist let me know adding the sentence "everybody thinks this is a dangerous place". I was the ony forign girl I saw crossing the border. But I got two contacts here so I think it will be fine!!
