In the past week I have received a lot more information. It's very exciting, as you can imagine!
I received a quote from a tour guide, with a potential itinerary. I haven't approved either, since it's not really exactly what I want-- too much time driving, and not enough time walking.
Also, I've now heard from a few Persian people who are either friends of friends or who reached out to via Instagram. I'm getting a lot more information on foods to try! Pistachios soaked in lemon juice, and then roasted!?! I've never heard of those before, but apparently they are delicious.
I also was recommended a very good Persian language immersion course. It will be great to learn to read and speak some Persian before my trip! It's so much easier to make new friends when I can speak a little of the local language. :-)
