Hello everybody,

I've been looking for just such a bootcamp experience for a long time - this seems to pull together a lot of different elements that I haven't found anywhere else. Just wondering, though - I can't see any information about people coming from abroad. I live in the UK - does anyone have any experience with or information on whether it's possible to join the bootcamp re. visas and such?

Many Thanks,

- Jojo

Welcome to the forum!

Here is one answer to your question:

Paul said, We have had people in the bootcamp from all over the world.

Maybe someone can speak up from the UK.

I know nothing about the visa question though I would feel those are handled in the UK on an individual basis so I recommend getting in touch with that dept in the UK.

Hi Anne - thanks for that! It makes sense. The last I knew, you could visit the US for a short period of time with no visa, as long as you had a return ticket and money in the bank. I'll check to see if anything's changed.

And first-rate artwork there from young Fred. Glad to see he's representing the Mothership well.

This will all take time to plan, but I really hope I can come over at some point...
