SUBSCRIBE to CRUISE SHOP SAVE YouTube Channel or Get A Reminder on Facebook to watch this Friday's LIVE which you won't want to miss. This week I chat with Nadia and Jannie who met at the beginning of their cruise career, either 1982 or 1983; they can't agree on the year. Either way, Nadia and Jannie became fast friends and cruise colleagues through stormy seas, sewerage flooded ships, delays that lasted for days. Through it all, they keep calm and carried on entertaining the guestsβ€”many guests boasting that it was the best time they ever had. Jannie is now the esteemed Director of Silversea Experiences and Nadia Founder and Owner - Africa Easy & Expedition Easy, a Seattle-based Safari + Tour Company. We will take a trip down memory lane to find out what cruising was like in the 1980s, '90s, and beyondβ€”how things have changed and the future of cruising.
