A locum tenens job can mean greater flexibility, better pay, and fulfilling work – not to mention the opportunity to meet interesting people and embark on new adventures. At TinkBird Healthcare Staffing, we love hearing travel stories from our locum tenens providers.

We place doctors and other practitioners in temporary medical jobs in cities in the Southeast, as well as Texas and Pennsylvania. Many of our locum tenens workers choose to apply their medical expertise in this way, enabling them to travel and experience new people and places. We want them to take full advantage of all the perks of being a traveling physician.

That’s why this article about “A Solo Traveler’s Guide on How to Meet People While Traveling” caught our attention. It’s chocked full of ideas on how to make friends with strangers, become a conversationalist, and use digital media to get acclimated to new surroundings. It’s a fun read for anyone working a temporary job in a new place – and for travelers in general. Enjoy!
