Anyone in Naples, FL? I am starting a travel nursing contract on January 10 to May 28, and I would love to make some new friends before I get there! I love spending time with family and friends, reading, shopping, going to the beach, painting, drawing, watching movies, and just having fun! I want to explore the sunshine state while I am there, so I will be traveling around seeing new places :)

I've been in Naples for about a month now working as a traveling nurse at Physician's Regional. There is a lot of seasonal nurses down here, I think my hospital hired around 185. What hospital are you at? So far everything has been going good. There is a lot of money to be made down here, but the cost of living is high. Weather is wonderful. Let me know if you have any questions about the area and I can try to help. Still learning my way around!

LadyTiger and Carrie, I'd like to learn more about Naples. I have a quote from travel company, not submitted yet, though. What company are you using? Carrie, you've been there awhile - enjoying the area? I've been there as a tourist - how's the company housing?

Carrie-I am at Naples North Community. I heard they are hiring alot of travelers also. Would you want to stay in touch and meet when I get there? I am staying at Waverley Place. nursin-I am with American Mobile, and my recruiter has been great. The virtual tour of my apt makes it look great, I will find out on the 6th. Which hospital is your offer from?
LadyTiger, I've been submitted for Naples Community Hospital for the OR. Company is Novapro (part of CCTC). I dread lugging kitchen and linen items down there - what about you?
3 hospitals in Naples? That's surprising.

We are shipping my stuff through fed-ex to my apartment. I have about 11 boxes, which includes my clothes, dvds/books, kitchen stuff, and pictures. I am not taking my bed, but I'm taking my pillowtop, which is like a tempur pedic. And we are driving. Where are you from? Do you think you are going to take it? I hear the travelers love it down there. I'm getting so excited! I'm from Indiana so it will be SO nice to get in some 70 degree weather!
Haven't interviewed yet, just submitted a few days ago. Submitted for Miami too. Good idea to ship your
stuff! Smart. You'll drive past me in Louisville to get to Naples! Yes, i'm sure you'll love the weather.

Lol, if you hear anything by Tuesday we can swing by and pick you up
It would be cool if you got something in either Naples or Miami, I would love to know one more person down there! Good luck, and keep me posted! Have you traveled before? Tiff
