Creator's Key Takeaways

We are in Barcelona, Spain. The very first time for us.

The tea time was lovely. It was a little strange though cuz it was all guests from Bolandam having tea together.

We always say if you're traveling, try to have local currency.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Try to have local currency when traveling.

✓Get a new passport before a long journey to have enough pages for stamps.

✓Estimate leftover currency usage to avoid exchange fees.

✓Consider interior cabins for better value on long cruises.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Surrendering passports to the ship for an extended period — Don't worry, you're in good hands. The purser's desk has it and they've taken care of it.

Using lifeboats as tender boats — Just listen to the instructions. It's the same as going on a tender.

Questions This Creator Answers

QAre you able to get any passport stamps?

QHow does landing via small lifeboat work?

QWhat do you do with pins collected along the way?

QDo most places accept credit cards or need local currency?

QWhat currencies do different countries take?
