HI, I decided to enter the field of traveling nursing just after my husband and I separated. I felt reassured simply because there was/is such a huge nationwide nursing shortage! Actually, I just registered onto this site today because I am looking for chat rooms for my friend who is interested in traveling but, just as you are, is afraid! I will ask her to locate your user name and post you a message. She is looking for another nurse to travel with! Perhaps you two could chat!!! Thanks!
