Tile Art From Around The World

July 17, 2016 By Louise

Tiles, whether made of ceramic, porcelain, or marble, are an integral part of the art and design world around the world – but they’re also a pragmatic feature of many homes, used for flooring and to add character to kitchens. Still, there’s no good reason to hold these two realms, the artistic and the practical, as opposite realms; rather, adding tile detail to your home can be a way to travel without leaving your house, and exploring local tile art can make a wonderful vacation experience.

When abroad, talking to artisans who work with tile or visiting factories are great ways to get a taste of the local culture.

5 Reasons to Consider Travel Nursing

April 3, 2015 By Louise

Many people dream of a life on the road, but that doesn’t necessarily mean having to become a pilot or travel blogger. One of the new specializations that has appeared in the healthcare sector relatively recently is professional travel nurses. According to TravelNursing, this career path offers a combination of stable finances and opportunity for career growth with the flexibility and adventures of traveling.

1. Professional Growth & Career Enhancement

Nursing itself already offers a wide array of professional growth and career enhancement opportunities through specializations as well as continuing medical educational options. According to educator Allied Health Institute, one of the great things about working as a travel nurse is the experience of working at a range of facilities and experiencing the difference between hospitals and private practices or other facilities. Each new location allows the nurse to pick up new skill sets, meet new challenges, as well as putting them in contact with several new people. [Read more…]

The most famous skiing mountains in the world can be found in Europe or the USA. You may think that they offer similar experiences, but in reality, they are quite different.
