Taxi trips are more than just a means of getting from A to B — they are about the experiences on the journey. Taxi trips in Iran however, are somewhat similar and somehow different. On a taxi journey in Iran, you'll likely be taken through the entire alphabet, but you can at least hop out happy, knowing that you're now 'au fait' on the latest happenings. This is because Tehran's taxi drivers are the most up-to-date resource for politics, the exchange rate, and the latest conspiracy theories in Iran.

Shanay is half Iranian, half Austrian, and has recently moved to Iran to embark on a restoration project.
