Hi, beauties!
I have on my mind the idea of doing a modeling trip through Europe or US. I've never done such and I'd love to hear some advice from you on how to organize it and so. Do I have to post a casting, contact some photographers to see who would like to work with me before buying the tickets and looking for accomodation? I get the idea is to get enough paid shoots to cover the expenses and earning some money. Is that so?

Thanks a lot!

Laura

Be careful if you are asking to be paid, because in many countries as a visitor you are not allowed to do any work for pay. From what I have read here on Model Mayhem, getting the proper paperwork set up so you can work in another country can be very difficult and in some places impossible. Some models reportedly have been stopped by customs if it appears they are travelling with the sort of clothing that would be used for modelling assignments.

Oh, damn, the paperwork, permissions and so. I totally forgot about that... I'll visit the Embassy to get information...

And thank you for remind me so... My head in the clouds forgets about bureaucracy issues all the time.

Si pasa por Copenhague (lo que debe ser possible puesto que estamos en la Unión Europea), por favour mándeme un mensaje por una session de retratos con luz natural.
Gracias
