🥈Expert Creatorthiscruiselife description on YouTube:
Hey cruisers! It's Mark and Rocky sharing our cruise adventures with you! From cruise ship walkthroughs and cruise ship reviews, to port and excursion overviews - we're taking you into this cruise life by providing you with videos, pictures, and background on our favorite hobby: cruising! The idea for thiscruiselife was born during the pandemic when cruising came to a halt around the globe. Talking about #thiscruiselife allowed us to support the cruise industry during the shut down, while providing an outlet to celebrate all of the things that make this form of vacation travel the best out there! Whether you're a first-time cruiser, or seasoned on the seas, there's likely something for you here on the channel. And as we grow, we'd love your questions, comments, and, of course, feedback, to make us even better. You can find us on all socials and at thiscruiselife.com. You might say we're kind of passionate about this cruising hobby (obsession?) and we love sharing it with you!

“We loved it that much. I'm giving it six ships out of five.”
“It is my new favorite ship that I have experienced.”
“The worst part, however, about the Carnival Vista and most appalling was we had the dirtiest room we have ever had.”
“We had to eat at dirty tables with other people's dishes because there was no crew that was around cleaning the tables.”
“It was a terrible experience. Uh, with the bar service on board, honestly, it feels like the crew is stretched too thin.”
“For me to earn diamond status at 100,000 points, that's almost $34,000 I have to spend every two years.”
“I don't like it at all. It's not a loyalty program at all.”
