How can I (an American) look into getting a nursing job abroad (Latin America, Europe, etc.) ?


I am an experienced traveler who really would like to live abroad. I was a teacher in my previous career and am currently working on a nursing degree. I would like to work abroad, in the healthcare field, possibly with nongovernmental organizations, but am having a hard time finding any PAID employment--most are just volunteer opportunities. Does anyone know about nursing jobs abroad? I am nearly fluent in spanish and portuguese and would love to work somewhere that either of these languages are spoken---like Brasil!
I am also interested in longer term volunteer opportunities but would really love to make a big move and work abroad.
Oh, and also---does anyone know about Master's degree programs in nursing or international health in foreign universities? I'd be interested in those too.
Thanks for any help!

I'm sure some hospitals or such will accept you?
