Persian/Farsi Conversation Group MONDAY Feb. 2

The conversation group meeting day has been changed to Mondays. The next meeting will be Feb. 2, 6-8pm @ Acadia Cafe (see link below for map). I was thinking this time bring a photo or an object that you can describe to the group in Farsi and then answer questions. Also, to practice speaking in the past tense, think about a childhood memory you could relate in Farsi.

Rick Steves goes to Iran


Nice website not just about Rick Steve's travel in Iran, but also a lot of general info about the country, culture, history, etc. Nice preview on the front page. Nice slideshow, too.
