However, you should know that it is not easy to find full-time employment here and wages are quite low.

PTurner always gives good advce. I think as a nurse you will be able to find employment. I don't know if the pay scale will be acceptable to you.

Something to consider is, " will you need medical insurance for yourself and your husband"?

to TOTV and I hope you enjoy your visit.
