Hi Debriyana,
In order to become a travel nurse, you have to get a degree in Nursing (usually takes about 4 years). Then you have to take a state exam to get your nursing license. Travel nursing can be challenging. Imagine getting a new job every few weeks. You have to train at a new hospital, meet new coworkers, all while living in a new state or city. All of these things can be overwhelming so you'll need to have atleast a year of nursing experience first.
Finding a travel nursing job is as easy as doing an internet search for travel nursing companies and reaching out to them. They are always looking for nurses. It's not hard to maintain a travel nursing career because there's always jobs available. When you work at new hospitals, you'll do your typical nursing tasks like giving medicine to patients and helping them to take care of themselves until they go home.
