Working in a foreign Country----PLEASE help!

I'm very interested in working in a foreign country someday...and i'm not talking about Canada...I want to work somewhere where they are in deadly need of nurses. I really don't care about the area. Does anyone know where I might be able to do this, or programs in the US that involve this? I'd really appreciate any help.

Hey! What's wrong with Canada? (Kidding)

What about Doctors without Borders. I've met 2 nurses who have worked for them and had AMAZING experiences in Africa and Asia.

Gotta agree with zen on this one - cold is bad, snow is bad, ice is bad unless it's in an indoor rink or crushed up in a margarita.

Africa would be in need.
