Travel Therapy

This has been a long time in the making. I've wanted to do travel therapy since I was in grad school. Two and a half years ago, I left my job at an Elementary school and took a pay cut so I could get medical speech therapy training in a hospital. I got a year's worth of experience under my belt, made an attempt at hiking the Appalachian trail, and am finally ready to travel around the country! The plan is to do 13 week assignments in as many states as I can in 2 years. The company that I am working for finds the housing for me and equips it with furniture and housewares, so I only need to worry about my personal belongings. I've moved 9 times in the past 8 years and have lived in 6 different cities. Although I am a little nervous about "the unknown", this seems to be the perfect job for my restless soul.
