Creator's Key Takeaways

pack twice the amount of money you think you need and half the clothes you need

the less hassle the less lines I have to wait in be that are between you know me and being on that ship with a drink in my hand

if you miss the ship and the ship leaves without you and you're standing on the on the dock you either have to take a flight home or a flight to the next Island and that's out of your own pocket

make sure that phone stays in in Wi-Fi mode I'm sorry in airplane mode because otherwise you know we've seen people come home with you know thousand dollar phone bills
