And don't forget the Escapees, http://escapees.com/. They were the 1st traveling workers to organize an RV support group. Great services and support groups!

I'm about to start traveling with the UA union out of ATL being a pipe welder / helper. I don't know what to expect, I'm from a little bitty town in south Georiga. I've been to ATLa few times but never got off of I-75 except for one time with the Lowndes high band, other than that no experience.

I build powerlines for a living and have been on the road for years now.  There are tons of union linemen like me on the road part time or full time.

You'll be in very good company.  We full time and travel a lot and have been amazed by the number of traveling workers in general and traveling nurses in specific.  I would also think a 5er might be a good choice for you... the down side being having to drive around the big truck once you get set up in camp.

Following retirement a few years ago we rented a cottage at the 3500 foot level of Haleakala... the large volcano on Maui in Hawaii.  The young couple in the cottage near us were traveling nurses and having a ball.  Amazing what you learn when you start traveling.

Best of luck.

Hi, John and I are Travel Nurses. We have a 34' Fleetwood storm and tow a Jeep now. One thing with having your own "housing" is that you will get a tax free housing allowance from the agency. It is usually more than it costs to have a nice full hook up site. You also don't have to move all your stuff every 13 weeks. So far we love it. It may be a problem finding a site close to your work, we have lucked out. Right now we are less than a mile from work!
Try it, you might like it.
