I've been nursing a little over a year and I got a full time line pretty early on in my career. I know I "should" feel grateful but honestly all I want is to go back to casual. I made more money as casual and I got to pick all day shifts which suited my body alot better. I find doing two days two nights really messes up my body and mind. I also want to spend the next five years of my life travelling which is pretty impossible with the vacation time I get in my line since im low senority. Is it bad that I want to go back to casual? Any suggestions? I'm also worried my manager won't let me go back to casual but I don't know if that's possible ?

It's really tough when you have something, and you think you should feel grateful, but then you just aren't. You seemed to really like the casual position opposed to your full time line, and it also seems more in line with your plans of traveling. Only you can make this decision, you seem to already have made the decision, do what you feel makes you happiest.
