"I'd just got back [to Christchurch] from the Measina conference in Samoa, which was about the psychological effects of the tsunami on the region a year ago," Mr Gorrie (22) told the Otago Daily Times when he landed back at Dunedin International Airport on Saturday afternoon.
"I got back to my parents' place in Avonside Dr about 7pm, but I didn't get to bed until about 12.30am, because I was talking to mum and dad. I'd only been asleep for a few hours when it felt like someone was violently shaking the headboard of my bed.
