Hi all,

I'm mentally gearing up for a TV show as the A 2nd that will be traveling & shooting between NY and Paris. We will be shipping our personal gear/kits back and forth as we complete each leg of shooting. Production has us working with an air freight company to secure a carnet and guide us through the rules and regulations (IE: Battery shipment). I'm looking for general advice or any added tips and tricks that only an AC could offer about doing a multinational show. Does anyone have a reliable Carnet spreadsheet they use for their initial inventorying? Any tricks for making sure everything goes into the right case at the end of each leg? Anything to keep in mind about working in an unfamiliar foreign city? What helps keep you grounded during a long stay overseas? 

This is something that is going to be new to me  - very excited but I expect to learn a lot of things I didn't think of or expect. Any thoughts or advice is welcomed! Thank you in advance.
