Hello Mercy Friends

I am looking for a travel buddy!

I have been accepted for a position as a ward nurse from the 1st of September 2019 - 18th of January 2020.

Anyone traveling from New Zealand from the 1st if September who would like a travel pal?

I promise great snacks and even better banter!

Love Leah

    Hi Leah, Where in NZ are you from? I'm from Mount Maunganui-Tauranga but working in Australia at present.

    My rotation commences December to March. Hopefully I will meet you on board.

    Blessings, Permila

    Hi Leah,

    How exciting. I have only just started my application process for next year. Im an ICU nurse so that particular position isnt till Aug 2020, hence giving me lots of time to organise myself :) I am looking at volunteering for approx 12 weeks, so be great to get your perspective - keep us updated on how you go.

    Have a great time.

    Jodie

    Hi Leah, I'm looking forward to meeting you and everyone during that time. I did think of going home but too long to fly TSV-Auck-Tga and then 42 hrs to Senegal. Meet you soon, let me know all about your trip. Blessings

    Hi, just wanted to say all the best for your travels, and hope to catch up with you when we get onboard. My husband and I are coming from Nelson in December for three months. I will be working as an Outpatient nurse, but I'm sure I will still have many connections with those on the wards too. Look forward to meeting all of you!
