Descripción

I have been working as an Occupational Therapist on an Inpatient Psychiatric Ward/Unit for the last 3 years. I started a 2 year sabbatical/career break in April 2021 in order to travel and experience the world as I have spent my life up until now in education or in work. I have a passion for human beings and a love of all life and I particularly love to work with people who have experienced trauma or are experiencing severe mental illness. I have a particularly calm and grounding temperament which enables me to work in high stress environments and with people who may be perceived as challenging.

Therefore in the next 2 years I wish to travel the world to experience different cultures, meet people I would never have the opportunity to meet at home, build skills and generally expand my life.

I grew up on a dairy farm and have lived for the majority of my life in
the beautiful countryside of Pembrokeshire in Wales. Surrounding me is a stretch of some of the most beautiful coastline in the world of which you can walk the whole of the coast path. I love living in Pembrokeshire and wish to return after my travels to live with near my family.

I would describe myself as a strong and assertive female however this is balanced by a calm and groundedness which generally makes me easy to get along with. I have a keen interest in alternative ways of helping others such as through energy healing, meditation, yoga, herbalism and maintain my own regular practice of qi gong, meditation and yoga however I am no expert in either therefore I would love to expand my knowledge in these areas. I also enjoy being and working outside, in particular growing vegetables and producing food. I would love to learn further about beekeeping and making cheese. I love cooking and food generally therefore I am very keen to learn about local cuisine.

Que habilidades tienes?

I have a bachelors of science degree in Occupational Therapy and I have specialised in inpatient acute mental health working for the NHS. Therefore I have a lot of experience working with people who are severely mentally ill. Due to this I am experienced in working in very challenging, high pressure and high stress environments. I am a very calm person and have often been described by others as having a calming and grounded presence. In my work I have been responsible for managing others therefore I can be assertive and am responsible.

I have also worked since the age of 12 in the catering industry and have many years experience working in bars and restaurants.

I have maintained my own vegetable garden for 2 years and have volunteered with a local producer of organic vegetables and I would say I have a good knowledge and understanding in this area.

Unfortunately I only speak English! and a bit of Welsh however I would love to learn as many languages as is possible. I am also a patient teacher and wold be very happy to help others to learn English.

I have a very strong work ethic and can enter into intense periods of focus and can get work done quickly! I actually love repetetive tasks and am quite happy to do the same thing all day! I am particularly physically strong in comparison to other women and came 1st in Wales at shot put when I was 15! I am fit and healthy, I enjoy physical work, I eat well and I quit smoking 1 year ago though I have no problem or judgement regarding others that smoke.

I have no criminal history and have been working in healthcare for the last 6 years.

I would love to expand my knowledge and learning in spirituality and self sufficiency and how engaging in these can benefit how you feel.
