TRAVEL NURSING IN WASHINGTON
Washington Spotlight
SeattleBuilt on six hills in the top left-hand corner of the continental United States, Washington's largest city is bookended by the Olympic Mountains and Puget Sound to the west, and the Cascade Mountains and Lake Washington to the east. It's no wonder that, living in this paradise of stunning nature and urban/suburban perks, Seattle residents have a reputation for pleasant personalities. If computers and caffeine are America's top factors for job productivity, we owe a lot to Greater Seattle, where Microsoft and Starbucks house their corporate headquarters.
Tacoma
The cities of Gig Harbor and Tacoma offer an extraordinary combination of outdoor activities and cultural attractions. For example, you can go kayaking in the morning and explore an art museum in the afternoon. Linked by the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, each city features a scenic saltwater harbor on south Puget Sound with a multitude of recreational options: museums, art galleries, theater and other cultural attractions.
