<p>When two German tourists got lost in Iran, Abbas Barzegar invited them with open arms into his home. He had no idea this would lead him to be one of the most successful men in Iran&#8217;s tourism industry. </p>

									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I like this as a business idea overall, but I believe they can improve their image by making their site more visually-appealing. For example, the fonts on the website are not very aesthetically-pleasing, and as silly as it sounds, something as simple as a nice font can make all the difference in a good website.</p>
