Creator's Key Takeaways

I loved the world cruise. I think I have to tell everybody that.

We were in an inside cabin. And I may have mentioned this in the past, but balconies are wasted on me.

I didn't gain any weight at all. Matter of fact, my weight was a little bit down from what it is at home.

I'm a big big fan of bringing all your electronics with you.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Get good travel insurance for long cruises.
✓Have a plan in place for emergencies at home.
✓Monitor home bills and set up cameras for security.
✓Bring all your electronics, including a Kindle for convenience.
✓Use Google Translate for navigating foreign ports.
✓Bring folding organizers to maximize suitcase space.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Gaining weight on a cruise — It's not true; you can maintain or lose weight by eating in phases and exercising more.
Home insurance for long absences — Check if your policy reclassifies your house as vacant after 30 days and change if necessary.
Losing items in a small cabin — It's easier to find things in a small room, but be careful at home where it's harder.

After finishing a world cruise I have a few ideas about how to prepare for long cruises. I forgot one important item - power adapter. We just finished a cruise in Europe and there were no American style outlets. Fortunately, Kate remembered her adapter so we were OK.
