I agree with NedRN...travel for the lifestyle, not the money. That being said, we all have a minimum pay that we 'can' accept. Its important to make sure that you know what amount this is. There are also other considerations that you might want to think about when choosing an agency. I would also recommend that you attend the Travelers Conference if you can. You'll gain a ton of useful information and be able to connect/network with other travel nurses.
