Finding Services and Travel-Related Resources

I want to try travel nursing, but I am nervous about leaving home. If I go somewhere new, how will I know who to trust for my repairs and services?

I know where to go for everything that I need. I have spent a long time figuring out what companies are reliable, who to take my car to for repairs etc. Any advice?

I know this sounds scary, but you may find that you won’t actually need that many services in your new place. Travelers have a lot fewer responsibilities on the road. It’s one of the great luxuries of traveling. If you choose to live in the company-provided housing, you won’t have to worry about any home repairs anymore, which takes a lot of everyday stress away.

Also, people you work with can sometimes be a good resource. Ask for referrals from your co-workers. Some human resource departments can also be of help if you are new to an area. Also, most travel companies are very knowledgeable about the areas that they place travelers in, so make sure you ask your recruiter. There is someone that usually seems to know these things.

Also, just the other day, someone told me about a website designed to help people just like you. It’s a website that helps people find trustworthy service in their area. The website is called AngiesList.com. You might want to check it out. Also, yelp.com is a user-centered Web site that lets people review and rate their favorite (or not so favorite) businesses, restaurants, salons, repair shops—you name it!

Don’t let this stop you from traveling. There are plenty of resources out there that can help you adjust and thrive in your new destination.
