Top Travel Destinations for Every Interest

Travel nursing is all about following your passions. But don’t just limit that to inside the hospital. Whether you crave world-class cuisine, rich culture or a thriving night life…go to the extreme as a travel nurse in cities that cater to your interests and hobbies.

Traveling Taste Buds

If you’re a food connoisseur and you haven’t been to New York City or Dallas, you and your stomach are missing out. Embrace the tastes and flavors of NYC and Dallas during your next travel nurse assignment. New York offers the best of food by offering a variety of restaurants to tantalize every palate. From Thai to German to Italian to Portuguese, New York is a bold and decadent city for food lovers. What Dallas lacks in variety, it makes up for in quality. The city is famous for good ole Southern cooking and finger-licking barbeque…so good they’ll make your mouth water.

Family Traveler

Kids are the happiest traveling campers when taking assignments to cities like Orlando or Orange County. You’ll never be short on entertainment in Orlando, a kid’s ultimate playground with attractions like Walt Disney World, Universal Studios and Discovery Cove. While catered to kids, it’s a city that’s fun for the whole family. And speaking of family, look no further than Orange County as a great spot to bring the family. In addition to family-friendly entertainment, the city is full of safe neighborhoods and top-ranked education systems.

Traveling through History

The United States may be a young country, but the history is plentiful. Immerse yourself in the past as a travel nurse in Philadelphia and Washington D.C. As the signing place of the Declaration of Independence and Constitution, Philadelphia is filled with historical significance—from Independence Hall to the Benjamin Franklin National Monument. And in D.C., it’s hard not to feel patriotic when you’re walking the streets lined with dozens of monuments, buildings and museums filled with the history of our forefathers.

Nightlife Traveler

You like the nightlife? Las Vegas and Atlanta should be at the top of you list for travel nursing destinations. Las Vegas comes alive at night, bursting with vibrant lights and entertainment to suit any desire—from award-winning operas, musicals and concerts to world-famous casinos and night clubs. Though continually ranked one of top cities for nightlife, Atlanta is a hidden gem for nocturnal lovers. The lure of late-night bars, Southern-style restaurants and Latin-influenced dance clubs will keep the party going all night.

Paws-itive Traveler

For pet lovers, travel nursing without your favorite companion is just not an option. Luckily, cities like Seattle and Chicago make it easy for you to bring your four-legged friends on assignment. Seattle’s public transit system allows well-behaved pets to travel with you (as long as they are on leashes) and there are 11 dog parks within city limits. Chicago has an array of outdoor cafes and bars where Fido can join you for a meal. Plus, there are more than 18 miles of trails around Lake Michigan perfect for a walk with your pet.
