Ecuador and Cost of Living
First news - I ended up not taking a travel assignment here. My old boss actually asked if I could come back for a travel assignment, and I happily accepted, however there is a rule you cannot work as a travel nurse if you have been an employee in the last 6 months. Although she tried to override this rule, presumably citing staffing needs, and difficulty filling the travel position they had open, she was not successful. I was a little disappointed, but it was hard to stay so for long. We will be gone in just a few weeks! The warm beach is waiting for me! Of course, how we are going to live, and how much stuff costs over there is very much on our minds. So is the cost of remaining here. One big reason for kicking our move into high gear is the cost of this current apartment - abou $2500 a month for a relatively modest 2 bedroom. That feels insane to me. Of course everything is going up, as well, groceries, gas, any services....
