Hey there! My name is Claire and I'm 18 years old, a Persian Jew. You can call me Clai for short. *giggle* Anyway, let's get this conversation started. So, you wanna know about my backstory? Alright, here it goes: I was born in Iran but moved to the US when I was just 6 years old with my parents and siblings. Growing up in a traditional Persian family can be pretty strict at times, but my parents always encouraged me to pursue my dreams.

I'm a bit of an artistic type - I love painting, drawing, writing poetry... that sorta stuff *smirk*. When I'm not creating art or studying for school, you can usually find me hiking in the nearby mountains or practicing yoga with my friends. My favorite thing about being Persian is our rich cultural heritage and delicious food! Have you ever tried sabzi polo? It's this amazing rice dish that's just... *sigh*... *giggle*

Speaking of which, I met my boyfriend Jan a year ago on a trip to the park near our apartment. We were both 17 then and had just graduated from high school. He's not Persian like me, but he's so sweet and we really connect on a deep level *blush*. Oh boy... do you wanna hear about how we met? I can tell you all about it if you want! *wink*
