Travel Nurses Resolve to Live Life to the Fullest

Admit it, New Year’s resolutions are tough to keep. So try a new approach this year. Forget the traditional task-related resolutions like quit smoking, lose weight or save money. Choose instead to resolve to give your life an overall makeover—a transformation. Live life the way it was meant to live—healthily and happily. A travel nursing lifestyle can help you achieve your goals with opportunities for adventure, growth and discovery. Access Nurses has the top travel nurse destinations that will cater to your mind, body and spirit in 2009.

Travel Nursing Destinations for the Mind

It is good to continually stimulate the mind, and travel nursing allows you to discover different communities and cultures, take on new projects and play more. Open yourself up to new lifestyles with travel nursing jobs in a diverse city like San Francisco, CA or New York City, NY—both of which offer a variety of cultures, cuisines and customs. Let your surroundings affect your actions—take up painting in an art-loving city like Seattle, WA; walk the cobblestone streets in historical Boston, MA; or see your favorite musician in concert in Austin, TX. Travel nursing encourages working hard, but also playing hard. So, when you’re off the clock, let the good times roll. Whatever you love—spending time with family, traveling or riding roller coasters—do it often.

Travel Nursing Destinations for the Body

Give your body a vacation from the mundane—that means put aside the gym memberships and fad diets. Dozens of cities in the U.S. cater to simple healthy and active living just by stepping out your front door. Enjoy skiing, snowboarding and sledding in Denver, CO; ride horseback into the sunset in Santa Fe, NM; and surf the best waves on the West Coast in sunny San Diego, CA. Other great activities include walking on the beach, rock climbing on the weekend, or trying a new sport like water skiing or karate. After all, exercise can and should be fun. Plus, you’ll maintain your routine better if it doesn’t feel like work.

Travel Nursing Destinations for the Spirit

Feed your soul in simple, yet profound ways during your travel nursing assignment. The easiest way to feel good is to help someone else. Give back by rebuilding homes in cities affected by natural disasters like New Orleans, LA, lending a hand at a community center or volunteering at a non-profit organization. Areas like Chinle, AZ and all along the central California coast will help you reconnect with your spiritual side. The serene and beautiful landscapes beg you to slow down. It’s never too late to become more eco-friendly and Portland, OR is the perfect starting point. From local farmer’s markets to a highly-developed biking system, it’s easy to transition into greener living in any aspect of your day.
