Hey Sailors, Greetings, I'm Lucy, and I'm thrilled to have you join me on my channel, where we delve into the fascinating world of cruising. While much of my content is geared towards guiding aspiring crew members on their journey to embark on a career aboard cruise ships, my decade-long experience working in this industry has also equipped me with valuable insights into maximizing the enjoyment of a cruise vacation. As a result, I'm increasingly dedicated to creating videos aimed at helping cruise passengers get the most out of their voyage experience. Thanks for visiting! Lucy xx
