I just got my first travel position for Seton Medical Center and am looking for other travelers going to Austin in March and April! Anyone have any good ideas for living arrangements also while I am there? Thanks!
I bought a travel trailer which is fully contained . It has a bathroom kitchen area air conditioning. It is big enough to live in comfort and you don't have to worry about people around you making noise . I bought it past my first assignment . The company put me up in an extended stay hotel . I work the night shift and between the neighbors and staff there was a lot on noise both day and night . My travel trailer is lite enough that I can pull it with my Ford Ranger 6 cylinder engine . And if I don't like
Where I park it I can move. So far it has paid off for the highest rent that I have paid to rent a monthly space has been $425 . Also the payments are $110 a month and the
Interest on the loan is tax deductible . The trailer that I have is a 2013 Starcraft AR 17 RD . Also many RV parks offer free WIFi , clubhouse , and basic cable at no or a low
rate . There are many models that are lite weight on the market . It has been a great investment .
I found an apartment! I've been here since last Friday. I feel like nothing is close. Everything is at least 10 miles away, but I'm in NW Austin. Looking forward to starting next week. Not really feelling my work schedule for March though...I was thinking of going out downtown this weekend. If anyone's interested in joining me, let me know :)

@MotivatedOne. I just read your message. I couldn't reply back. Because this is my first assignment I didn't want to worry about finding housing. I had a TON of other things to worry about so I decided to let my agency provide housing. So an ES hotel is what was provided. Its a very nice one so I'm happy. If I extend this assignment I will find an apartment and bank the rest. But I'm living in the area NOW so I'll have time to physically view apts and areas. Hope that helps because I think I forgot the question. lol
