Working while travelin

Hi folks
Thanks for all your help that made my last two trips to Europe really amazing.
This time I want to travel to Europe or Russian sub continent. But I want to experience it a bit differently. I want to work while I travel for two or three weeks during this August. What do you think of this idea? Is it feasible?
P.S. I am 28..female..Indian. Business Research professional. What kind of jobs you think I can pick while I am there?
Thank you

not feasible unless you have a work permit ,if you say why you are visiting and say you are here to visit and work you may not even get entry.

To directly answer your question -- None. If you are a US citizen you would absolutely need a work permit/visa to do any kind of work -- paid or voluntary. If you an India resident, I assume the same would apply but you need to check that out carefully.

No absolutely not in Europe. To do any kind of work: volunteer, paid or in exchange for food, accommodation etc. you need the appropriate employer sponsored work permit. And to be very clear, failure to comply with these rules carries very sever penalties: a fine of up to 4,000 euros, deportation at your expense and a ban from 5 to 10 years from entering the Schengen area.
