Day 7 – Saturday and castings

By on Sep 9, 2017 in Shanghai, China (2017) | 0 comments

Today we met up to go to 3 castings together. On the weekend, can you believe it. No rest here. We took a taxi together and I was just going to wait outside. At the first casting, we stopped in front of a buffet type restaurant. Since it was 11AM and I hadn’t eaten and I had about 30 minutes to wait, it was time to overcome my fear of ordering. I did it.

The girls finished up around 7PM and msg’d that Kaatje had a job in Nan Jing, about 300km away. She would have to get a taxi at 5AM and get on the 6:12AM high speed train. Needless to say there was some tense moments here and decided it was best if I also came along to ensure no issues (lets face it not many emails coming in at 8PM-2AM local time). I booked my...
