Two years of Travel Nursing.




There's something alluring about traveling. It’s like a honeymoon.  

Two years of travel nursing.

Two years of being the “new nurse”. Two years of new co-workers and new friends.  Two years of new nursing experiences, tips and techniques.

Two years of being a tourist. Two years of adventures. Two years of new places, new people.

Two years of limbo living in a 34 foot motorhome.  Two years of missing family milestones. Two years of being a visitor at my own family's gatherings.

It’s enough. We’re done. Ray and I have taken off our travel shoes ( for a time).   We are part of a village.  We are committed to the people who are committed to us. And part of that commitment means being present; present in the good times and the hard.  So the motorhome has a “for sale” sign on it and we bought a house near our family.

My heart is content. We’re  home.
