    There's an apparently good club called Club Odal www.clubodal.is I think. I've emailed them to ask about travelling there too but not for another few months. They responded pretty fast.

    Try and get in touch with them and see what they say to you.

    I really wouldn't recommend Iceland. I worked at Club Odall in 2000 and it's upscale, but people don't spend at clubs there like they do in the states. You are much better off earning money here. If you go, winter time is the best b/c people are cold and it is dark almost all day and they need stuff to do. If you are dark skinned it might be worth it though b/c your look will be considered exotic.

    I've heard good things about Keflavik (sp?). Anyone have a 1st hand experience? Do agencies furnish visas for US citizens? Thanx

    Really? Are you sure you just weren't working at a bad time of year? I thought it would have been a nice little moneymaker. Was serously considering a short stay there.

    I hate to get your hopes down, but I think the opportunity for making good $ in Iceland has well passed. I was there in the winter of 2000, I don't think it was the time of year. Some controversy was starting up about the clubs at the time among the local community, but I think even since then it's never returned to being as profitable as when the clubs first opened there. I'm sure you can make the best with anything (and Club O. is the nicest one there), but it is definitely not an easy money-maker.

    If you're going for a short stay and aren't worried about the money, why not go. But if you're depending on the income, I really wouldn't risk it. Especially if you're a good hustler in the US.

    Thank you all for your valuable input in my post.

    Sara. I have some questions. Were you happy about how they split private dancing money? If I am not wrong I think it was 50%.

    I am Asian do you think it will work advantage for me?

    If you can give me some more detailed information about the accommodation and working condition I will really appreciate.

    Awhile ago (2-4 years) I remember another dancer forum where many dancers of color (black, latino, and asian) were saying Iceland was a gold mine. I have no personal experience but that is what I heard.

    I've never been to Iceland but there was a thread on it a few years back on a different forum. And from what I remember, you should pack every single little thing you think you might need. I heard sundries/toiletries can get expensive. Also, I swear I remember reading this dancer said she even packed some food. Maybe Sara can comment on that.

    The reason to pack food is b/c the club holds your money until the time you leave (or at least they did when I was there). I didn't see any Asian dancers, so I bet an Asian woman would do well! 50% of the money sounds right - it's been a while so I can't remember. They also take out an amount for taxes. The accomodations were okay - it was like a large connected apartment with a shared kitchen. The owner said they would be moving into an even nicer place in the future.

    Transportation was provided to and from work, and for this club there was nothing to worry about safety wise. No prostition going on or anything like that. No extras either.

    The girls from eastern europe were very happy with the money they were making (due to the exchange rates) - I was not. I think the club owners actually favor eastern european girls b/c of this.

    I was planning on going during Easter time or something. I don't have the time to dance just yet so I'm looking into potential clubs I can visit in a few months time. The owner told me to email them some photographs.

    Yeah, and they only pay you at the end of your stay and normally girls stay for ~4-6 weeks according to them. After what Sara said though, I'm considering maybe dropping that idea. I've thought about two other clubs, www.dreams.no in Norway and Pure Platinum in Frankfurt.

    I know that the Danish are supposed to he crazy on dark skinned girls, as are the Estonians but I haven't looked into those clubs yet. I think I may do as well.

    For my expirience I can say that Iceland is a bit like other scandinavian countries in general but little bit more special.I love the dark winter of scandinavia, so actually for me the lighty summer is the boring part.But tastings...
    At work, the icelandics mostly like dark skinned girls, latins especially because they feel exotic...
    The work goes very up and very down, in the end you make GOOD money anyway!
    You don't need many customers to make money, just the right ones.
    About the clubs I can say, Goldfinger is basically a brothel, champagne and vegas are not good either ( maybe girls don t get paid???)
    Bohem and Odal are fine...
    Try iceland...
