INTERVIEW COMING SOON
Ute’s world fell apart when her fiancé died suddenly and unexpectedly at the age of 50. Inspired by her own healing journey Ute gave up her career in management consultancy to set up luxury retreat holidays in beautiful locations in Scotland and France for widows and widowers creating safe spaces for widows to just be, take care and learn to enjoy life again. Originally from Germany, Ute has been living in Scotland for over 20 years - “I fell in love with Scotland instantly the very first time I visited - the scenery, the people, the creative buzz. Scotland is home for me, it’s where my heart is.” “When I lost the person most close to me, my soulmate and traveling companion, I turned from being a confident traveler into an anxious scaredy-cat. I’ve learned that being in the company of people who really understand – who are in the same situation or have been there - really helped me. When I took time to just be it was scary as I didn't know what would well up inside me. But I eventually learnt how to to just go with the flow and observe how it feels. That was the key to my healing.” “My journey inspired me to help others in my situation. Widowed people often forget to look after themselves properly so I set out to create breaks as reminders that life is still worth living to the full!” Ute has kindly created a special offer for Love Everything Travel listeners.

INTERVIEW COMING SOONGo Anywhere Travel Nursing - Rachel Sullivan, a Canadian trained nurse working and traveling in Australia talks about how to be a travel nurse, what to look for, why she does it and how she met Sam. Rachel grew up in a small town in Ontario, Canada and had never done much overseas traveling, but she had always had the dream of being able to travel as part of her job. Rachel is now only three years into her nursing career and has already worked in three different countries (Canada, Australia, and New Zealand) and she is starting to check some amazing travel destinations off her bucket list: "I love the Australian climate and find it a great place for someone who enjoys the outdoors like myself. Surfing, hiking, swimming, snorkeling are some of the daily activities I get to enjoy because I travel nurse in Australia. Another thing that draws me to Australia is the incredible job opportunities as well! My boyfriend, Sam Martin, and I have developed Go Anywhere Nursing (www.goanywheretravelnursing.com), a travel nursing blog assisting other nurses to take their career travelling, and a platform for us to share our travelling experiences with others. We aim to inspire other nurses to travel and help facilitate them through the process of being a travel nurse (gaining registration internationally, figuring out immigration, to finding a job etc.)."

We met in Hervey Bay, Australia in February 2016, where we were both fresh to the travel nursing scene and completing our first remote and rural contracts. We have since worked in several locations on the east coast of Australia and in New Zealand. We are taking a trip to North America over the holidays and planning to head to the west coast of Australia on our return, to explore the remote and vast state of Western Australia as travel nurses.
