No. I never worked outside of the US before, however I did work in Chicago for a few years. I grew up in a rural area of Iowa, so working in Chicago was like moving to a different planet.

No nor me.

If I had my time again I'd take my nursing career and work elsewhere in the world.

I never worked outside US. But I think it will be a real great experience to work in places where medical assistance is almost not heard.

I've done nursing only in the US; but I've been a medic in Israel and the US.

There are quite a few nurses who volunteer on medical missions and such.
