I work in audit and it has been only 8 months. My Plan is to move to advisory as I like traveling and I believe I like consulting and advisory! Can 8 months of experience at PwC help me to get advisory position at other big 4 firms?

You can travel just as much in audit as you would in advisory, all depends on the market you’re in and what projects you get staffed on.

8 months of experience won’t get you far and if you get interviews your reasoning for why you want to join can’t just be “I believe I like consulting and advisory”. Definitely express your interest but need to phrase it far better

8 months is a little light being perfectly honest. I think after busy season with a full year of experience your chances would be better.
