This is a story that documents my week-long road trip through Iran – one of my favorite countries on earth. Please note that this video was filmed and edited months before the recent escalation between Israel and Iran. While the timing is challenging, I believe it’s essential to share stories that highlight the people, culture, and humanity of a country, especially when headlines focus mostly on conflict. My heart goes out to everyone affected by violence — from the mosques of Tehran, to the synagogues of Tel Aviv, to the streets of Gaza — and I continue to hope for peace in the Middle East.
Iran is an absolutely amazing country, and I hope you will watch this video with compassion and an open mind!
