Posted over 2 years ago Has there ever been someplace special that you wanted to visit? This week's question fantasizes about the jet-setting lifestyle of a travel nurse, and we want to know:
If you could become a travel nurse, where would you go? Or, if you're already a travel nurse, tell us about some of your favorite places and where you've been.

| Posted over 2 years ago I would love to go to Paris, London, Germany, Japan, China and Italy. Those are my top picks for when and if I become a travel nurse. Really anywhere in Europe sounds appealing! |

| Posted over 2 years ago Great question! I still have to finish my RN training and look into MSN, but Alaska for the hunting and fishing is very appealing. I had my buddies laughing about working in a remote part of AK like on "Northern Exposure" during the hunting/fishing season. I really would like to see the Northern Lights. Working overseas for a contractor in Saudi or ME would allow for great R&Rs to Australia and Europe. I love the Alps and motorcycle riding there. I'd also like to take a photo safari in Africa. Might be fun to try "Drs w/out Borders" for a spell and tag a R&R at end of 6-12 month tour.

| Posted over 2 years ago Wow....so many places I would love to travel and work as a nurse. Let's see, Peru, Great Britain, Hawaii, pretty much anyplace tropical. My only concern might be having to work in sub standard conditions depending on what country I ended up in. I don't mean sub standard as in comfort, I mean sub standard as in supplies, technology, equipment, having access to meds, etc. ~ Laugh as much as you breath and love as long as you live ~ |

| Posted over 2 years ago There are so many great and beautiful places to travel and see. To volunteer as a nurse in Africa or Haiti would be great. Allergies makke it impossible for me to go to a tropical country, but the reservations in Montana could use nurse as the outer regions in Alsaka. There is a need for a nurse volunteer about any where you look. There is a group called "Volunteers in Medicine" that can help a person find a place that needs volunteers. |

| Posted almost 2 years ago So many places, not enough time. In the US, Hawaii, Colorado, Alaska, Maine, California, and Utah. Don't ask me, but I thought these places would be awesome to work in for a short time. Outside of the US, there's Ireland, Greece, Russia, India, China, and Rome. Exotic places and I know no one. Just get away from Chipley, that would be my main thought!!!!!!!!!! |
