I am thinking about the travel thing. I am married with 3 kids, all grown, but one is still at home, in highschool. I am wondering what assignments are like, the length of assignments, how often you can travel home, does the cost eat up all the extra wages, what kind of assignments are there, just a lot of questions?

Assignments range generally from 13 weeks to 26 weeks. Although you'll occasionally find a four week assignment. Are you planning on leaving your child at home so they don't have to switch schools? Agencies generally will pay for your housing possibly even your car. So your likely to save money. I would call a couple of agencies had ask them these questions so you get concrete answers. Good Luck!
