California“I love being so close to the ocean here in California. The scenery is amazing and I am able to take my four wheeler out to the dunes, go kayaking or even ride my bike through the vineyards.” ~Jeff Schulcz, RN

Some reasons why Access Nurses travelers love California:

Relaxed lifestyle: There’s an easy-going aura about California cities that must be experienced. Maybe it’s all the sunshine that melts away the stress.

Miles of flawless beaches: After all, who wouldn’t want to spend the summer near the beach? In California, you’ll find fabulous beaches up and down the state.

Big on entertainment: Everyone is looking to have a good time in California—whether it’s camping on the weekend or spending the day at an amusement park.

Arizona“I love the big city feel of Phoenix, but also knowing that I can drive five minutes and feel like I am in a quiet secluded town. The nightlife is great and there are always great concerts and sporting events.” ~Jennifer Gamez, RN

Some reasons why Access Nurses travelers love Arizona:

Natural wonders: The Grand Canyon, Red Rocks in Sedona and Canyon de Chelly National Monument are all amazing must-see sights.

Sports teams galore: No matter your preferred sport, Arizona has a team for you to cheer on to victory.

Outdoor adventure: You can’t keep locals inside on a beautiful day. There’s too much to do, including boating, horseback riding and hiking.

Traveling with Pets

I traveled for five and a half years and then took a permanent job, but now I want to go back on the road, but have two dogs and would like to take them with me. Let me know how life on the road is with pets. Do your dogs get used to it. Handle the change well? is housing okay? Thanks.
