Creator's Key Takeaways

I've said in previous videos that it's really easy to make friends on cruise ships because you're in a really small environment and because everyone is away from their loved ones and their families at home everyone is open to making friends

if you are finding that there's someone on the team on your team that's being quite icy and quite Frosty usually it's because they're at the end of their contract

if you come on board and you're really negative it's not going to go down well people are tired people are working every hour God sends people only have a finite amount of energy

โœ“Don't try to befriend someone at the end of their contract

YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

Hey sailors, In the past, I have made videos stating that it is very easy to make friends on cruise ships because you are in a contained environment far away from other friends and family so you are usually quite open to making new friends. However, it happens sometimes that when you join a cruise ship you can find that you have quite a frosty welcoming and in this video, I'm going to explain why that might happen.
