Prince Carl Philip's Education/Work in Photography and Design

[avrilo]

I once heard Felipe had a similar incident in NY, please take it as a rumour cause I cant point exactly when it was anyway...Is always like that with the US customs, drama!, I had friends that had been stripped. I had been question three times why I was shopping in Sn Antonio and then drivin to Austin to see a friend. I dont like them. Poor Carl Phillip I bet he had a bad time and they weren´t exactly nice to him... but a part of me is happy to hear from him.

I find it odd that prince Carl Philip had such trouble with American customs. Why did't they honor his diplomatic passport? Was really work permit necessary in his situation? I hope the story was exaggerated. But if history is true the custom officers behavior was silly.

^lol. It must be awkward going to the US knowing you forgot your passport, but yes they can be intrusive. Anywayz: no further drama so all is good :)

[wanderer]

I just think the custom officers were simply inexperience.

i think they're just being cautious.....poor carl phillip.

So everyone is taken into consideration even a real life Prince...

If you're a foreigner coming into the US without a work visa (or hotel reservations, etc. for tourists) getting through customs can sometimes be quite a hassle now. Showing a diplomatic passport might have actually complicated matters for CP because Customs may have wanted to contact the Swedish consulate as he was traveling off his planned itinerary.

[linneatherose]

This was likely regular procedure that has been wildly exaggerated by the press. It is unfortunate for the United States, however. I feel like over the last several years we've done many things that make us unpopular with the rest of the world and this is just one more smudge on whats left of our reputation. Sometimes I'm really ashamed to be an American...<:(

[Sebastiana]

That's true. If there really had been a problem the Swedes would presumably have lodged a formal complaint, and I'm sure we'd have heard about that by now.

[Zonk]

Apparently...this is not true. Another example of the truth getting in the way of a good story.

Prince Carl Phillip Not Detained in US


Sweden's Prince Carl Philip Reports that Prince Carl Phillip was detained at a Miami airport recently are untrue according to a spokesperson for Sweden’s Royal Family.

Media reported Wednesday that when the Prince arrived in Miami he presented a diplomatic ID identifying him as a member of the Swedish royal family, but the immigration police apparently didn’t believe a prince would arrive unescorted and took him for an impostor.
Nina Eldh, of Sweden’s Royal Court, says the story is untrue, and that Prince Carl Phillip never told authorities he was a prince to get special treatment.
According to Eldh, Carl Phillips incoming flight to Miami was delayed and because of long cues at immigration, he missed his connecting flight.

I dont know what it says but im happy to see him again. I miss him soooo much

[Piqui]

The title basically says that CP did an internship with (world/nature) photographer Mattias Klum and this man says that CP is a great guy to work with. He never complains. I couldn't read the rest of the article since the text was too small

The exhibition only opened today, so this far I think the only place to buy it is the Museum Gustavianum, where the exhibition takes place. I don't know if it will be on sale in regular book shops later, but I guess so. Perhaps you can then order it online via Bokus webshop, or you could always contact the museum and ask them if it's possible for them to send you a copy via mail. You can find the museum's website here (there's an email address at the bottom of the page).

I was fortunate to attend the press viewing yesterday, so you can see some of my own pictures and a little resumé of my impressions of the exhibition in my blog here.
