Iran

Have you ever visit Iran? Iran is located in the Middle East and people say it’s very dangerous country because in the news, people are saying Iran has a nuclear bomb and it is next to Iraq so people think Iran is very dangerous. I also had those images. I have been to Iran six or five years ago. And since that, my image had changed completely and I have learned many things at there.
When my parents told me that we are going to Iran, I was very scared and worried because I don’t have good image of Iran. My image was very dangerous country and I thought Iran was having war every time. So that’s why I was very scared. It was very long journey to Iran. It wasn’t that long but it felt it like it will take forever. Some guy took us to house and it was so huge. They had tennis court and swimming pool so it was really big. There were few people at my house who worked for us. I was first very scared of them because they were from Iran and looked very scary but they were so kind to me. So it was very comfortable living there. Not only people who worked at my house were kind. All the Iranian people were kind. Every time I go to shopping, people started to talk to me like “hi” or “how are you? Some times their English is not so well but they tried to talk to me. All the Iranian people are kind and friendly. My impression towards them had changed completely. I have learned how kind Iranian people were and I was making a mistake.
I would like to talk about school I went at Iran. It was very small school. There twenty five students in total including elementary school and junior high school. In recess, all the students play together. I couldn’t believe that because in Japan, I was playing with my age group so it was unbelievable. But time goes on and I was getting use to it. It was actually fun playing with younger people and older people. I took care of younger people and it was tough but it was good experience. My school life at there was really nice even though there were only twenty five people at school. I have learned that taking care of people is really hard and you can have fun even your friends are different than your age.
Iran was very different from my first image. You won’t know that country if you don’t go to that country. Even though the impression of the country is bad, you won’t know until you go there. The country might be very good for you. So this is what I have learned from my journey to Iran.
