LIVING IN IRAN
Hi everyone! I lived in Esfahan, Iran during the 70s and the start of the revolution. I am now writing a book about that time (humorous, hopefully), and know it's quite different now than it was then.
If anyone out there is living there now, or has in the last say five years, I'd love to be able to include that in my book. As it was quite severe in the 70s, I wonder if it has calmed down any, as far as Americans are concerned.
My book will retell the crazy culture shock, the inadequate roads and transportation, and a few scary situations that I got myself into because, well, I guess I'm just plain nosey!
You can view the book on my website, dodiecross.com, and click on my blog which tells a little about some of the incongruities that faced a newbie expat. After Iran, I was ready to take on the world.
Also, if anyone has any recent pictures of the mosques or Tehran, I'd be happy to pay for them.

If you look up Farshad Hoseini on facebook under 'search for friends', he will tell you everything you want to know about Iran (Persia). He is an Activist against torture at the European Union and sends daily reports on Iran to all Iranians. He is an Iranian but lives in Holland. He knows everything there is to know about Iran.

I actually meant to send that message to 'a broad abroad' but sent it to Dodie instead but maybe A broad abroad will read it anyway.
