Other foreigners living in Iran

Post new topic

Sirline

Hi
I have lived in Iran for about 3 months and I am looking for other foreigners to share some thoughts. I am originally from Scandinavia and I am living now in Karaj. Until now I haven't seen any other foreigner in this country. I haven't even met anyone who could speak english and I don't speak farsi. I am suffering quite hard culture shock and would like to talk with others who have experienced same than me.

Hi sirline
I live in iran (shiraz city) but not in karaj, however I think that its not difiult to find some english-speaking gathering in a city such as karaj, which is so near to capital city(Tehran). I suggest you to go and find university of tehran where you can meet some foreign eng-speaking student specialy in medical school.
Furthermore, I can introduce you to my iranian freind near by you in tehran who can speak eng with you for further help and sharing of cultural issues!

Best wishes

Hello Sirline,

I know how you are feeling, it was difficult for me too at the beginning living as an expat in Iran, I would advice to try learning Farsi language it will help you alot , I dont know about Karaj but in Tehran there  are Farsi language classes that would be helpful, there arent many foreigners in Iran in general, if you want any help or someone to talk to about living in Iran, please dont hesitate to contact me,

Cheers

Hi, I'm an Australian woman living in abdol abad in Tehran. I'm married. I have no English speaking friends or family here. Just my husband's family. I would like to connect with a female so that we can talk and be friends. It is very hard here. I'm not allowed outside alone. I feel like a prisoner. Just someone to talk to would be helpful.

Hi friend,

This is Sahar.  Sorry to hear that you feel homesick and are behaved like a strange and alien here in Tehran.
In that part of Tehran, most of the ppl don't know English. But in other regions, it's easier to find English speaking friends. Most of the Iranians don't know English, but those who majored in English or had lived in English- speaking countries. You can go to language centers to kill the bird with two stones, you can make friends with English teachers and also you can teach English there. There are many language institutes that need native teachers.

Further, I can help you too. No worries.

Hi,
Are you still living in Karaj ?
I’m in Karaj also. I’m a native english speaker and have lived in several countries. Im of Persian origin and it’s my first time in Iran since I was a little girl so I’m having culture shock too !
Feel free to contact me. It would be great to speak English !

Deze guestposter72,
It has been some time ago that you post this and I hope you got good contact with some women already.
I am a woman from Holland (the Netherlands) who is married for 26 years now with an Iranian man. Unfortunately I am not living in Tehran (or in iran at all), but I visit it a lot. I speak the language. Maybe you like to talk and I can advice you or just become good friends.
Next time I come to Tehran i can visit you if you like.

Good luck
