What does President Rouhani do in his spare time?

Why, he takes a hike in the mountains near Tehran — albeit one which can also be used for PR when he gets back to the office.

The Iranian Students News Agency has posted a series of photos of Rouhani on a recent excursion. It is “to maintain his health”, but “what makes hiking more pleasing for Rouhani is engaging in conversations with girls and boys, women and men who walk with the President and share their hopes and dreams with him”.
