The Chill Cruiser
🥈Expert CreatorThe Chill Cruiser description on YouTube:
I explore cruise ships from a chill perspective, including the spa, dining, entertainment and casino. I also share tips on how to save time, money and hassles (on land and at sea) based on my more than 50 cruises on 3 continents. More recently, I've started to focus on cruise ship casinos and how they can make it easy to earn free or discounted cruises. #cruisetips #cruiseships
