am 24 years old and have worked in health care for 6 years mostly with children in a psychiatric hospital. I am travelling the US until mid September before I go back university to study my PHD in counselling psychology. I love being out doors enjoying hiking, riding horses, rock climbing and kite surfing amongst other things. I pride my self in my cooking abilities and love to do this in my spare time. I am a big foodie 🙂

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I am a traveller who wants to feel the authenticity of a place and feel that couch surfing offers this. I love to meet people and live like the locals.

I love being outdoors doing almost anything

音乐、电影和书籍

I love jazz and blues music when I can listen to it live but I tend to listen to indie music on my iPod.

My favourite movie is one flew over the cuckoos nest.

And I tend to read books on psychology and mental health

教，学，和分享

One thing I have recently learned from reading psychology journals is that back in WW1 & WW2 the percentage of troops with PTSD was significantly lower than in our troops today and that has a lot to do with the transition time between being in a war zone and being home in civilisation. Back in the world wars troops would be sent home on ships that would take weeks for them to return home giving them a long transition period where as troops today can be in a war zone one day and at home on that same day, this gives little transition time and making the adjustments somewhat harder
