But, to win his heart, you'd have to accept his rather unconventional lifestyle.
Amou Haji has not washed for 60 years, because he believes being clean will make him sick, and his favourite food is rotten porcupine.
To relax he likes to sit down and have a smoke, from a pipe packed with animal faeces.
Mr Haji, 80, says he chose this way of life after going through some emotional setbacks in his youth and since then – perhaps unsurprisingly
– he has become a bit isolated.
His home is in Dejgah village in the southern province of Fars in Iran where, once, a group of young men offered to give him a shower – but
luckily he managed to escape.
At night he either sleeps in a hole in the ground, which is quite like a grave, or in an open brick shack which concerned locals built for him.
