Crazy Idea Maybe?

I'm looking at a possibility of taking a contract in Southern Europe. Hard work but good pay and time off.

I've a little two place piston popper heli that is almost done with a complete refurb. The thought has occurred to me to perhaps container it over and on time off do a little flying. Maybe do some flying with co-workers and/or nationals who might want to show a bloke their country from the air.

I know there would be the usual fees, etc. but the question is, would this even be doable with an N-registered aircraft? Since my time off would afford good leeway to travel every couple months it theoretically could be based in any number of countries and flown there. What countries might offer the best shot for doing something like this? What would be the big concerns?

The thought of perhaps being able to tour a few countries in Europe in my own a/c is intriguing to say the least.
