Its definitely different with your spouse, but I've seen couples make it work. My husband works from home, so it's easy for him to just pick up and go.
I had a colleague whose husband was a teacher. They would travel together and he would just pick up substitute teaching wherever they were.
My best friend whose a nurse stayed 'traveling' in the same area as her husband for up to a year. He is a mortgage broker. Then she took a contract 4 hours away in another state and did the long commute for 13 weeks to maintain her 'non-taxable status'.
It's doable, just requires some flexibility on both your ends. also know that he might not get a job as easily as you, so be prepared to be the sole breadwinner for a few months.

So do any of you travelers take your husband and what does he do for a living?
I graduate with my BSN in April and after I have a year or so under my belt I would like to look into travel nursing more seriously. My husband is an engineer right now but would love to leave that industry....but not sure for what new career.
