Hi, my name is Gesine.
After two years of travelling, spending time in different places and not knowing where to go next, I've decided to go to Münster and stay there a while for studying.
I am very curious about everything and love to discover places, doesn't matter where they are. The best places for me are the ones still hidden and waiting to be found. I know that the most beautiful flowers grow in the ruins..
I am dreaming of opening my own organisation one day in an old, run down factory at the countryside.. ;)
But before that I spend my time walking around, participating in theatre or other artistic events, everything that seems interesting to me. All times I visit a new city I start to plan to live there. I like talking about anything..beginning with the small issues of our lives, ending with world politics.

I like to live in a simple way. My motto: Civilisation is the constant multiplication of unnecessary needs.
So..back to nature! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet people from other countries, with different cultures, backrounds and religions.
If you're lost I would be hapy to show you around and bring back the orientation.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to what my friends listen. :D
Reading books by John Green, Karen Duve, and many more.
Movies: everything except horror. I can be really happy about trashy and stupid sketches.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being a scout for 8 years, I put my passion for mountains, campfires, reading maps and guitar playing onto a group of 4 girls who now are passing their passion to the next generation, on and on and on. :)
After my highschool I spent time in Iran's huge capital Teheran working at a school. I also discovered the country with busses and a car - the most interesting people I have met and the best nature I have ever seen.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my curiosity for new things and places and if you are interesting in handcrafts I would love to teach it of course. :)
