fromIOWA

I am set to graduate from nursing school in April, and take the NCLEX in May. I am approaching my mid 20s and would like to see different areas of the world and gain as much experience as possible. I also have no idea what area I specifically want to focus on when I graduate and start to look for a job. My fear is that I will stay in one area too long and miss out on something I may enjoy more in a different area. What brought me into the nursing field was the opportunity to become a traveling nurse. I have found that most traveling agencies require a minimum of one- two years of experience. Other options? I have heard there are many different things a nurse can do outside of the hospital setting, but nobody has really shown me a list of those options. I really enjoy interacting with the patient, but I would like some ideas for careers outside of direct patient care. What area do you suggest for a guy fresh out of nursing school? What nursing jobs are available outside of the hospital setting? What traveling opportunities are available for first year graduate students? Thanks, I know I'm asking a lot.
