THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE PICTURES
From Mashhad to LA.
And everywhere next.
We’re Kia and Mat, two Persian brothers raised in Mashhad and now based in Los Angeles. One plans. One just shows up. Somehow, we both end up with a story to tell.
We share the hotels we actually stay in, the food we try, the adventures, the costs, and the bits that don’t go to plan. Expect original photographs, honest guides, and videos in Farsi and English, with a little brotherly commentary along the way.
ما کیا و مت هستیم؛ دو برادر ایرانی، بزرگشدهٔ مشهد و ساکن لسآنجلس. داستان سفرهامون رو به فارسی و انگلیسی با شما به اشتراک میذاریم.
