YouTube Video Description↓

I accidentally woke up in San Juan and realized it was a port day… and I had absolutely no plan. So I grabbed my camera, got off the ship, and started walking to see what I could find in Old San Juan. Welcome back to barely packed! On this solo cruise adventure aboard Royal Caribbean’s Independence of the Seas, I booked this cruise only 48 hours before sailing — so I didn’t plan any excursions. Instead, I explored San Juan completely on my own. This Royal Caribbean cruise vlog features a San Juan Puerto Rico port day where I explore Old San Juan during a solo cruise adventure. In this video: • Walking from the San Juan cruise port • Colorful streets of Old San Juan • Unexpected finds (including the famous pigeon park!) • How walkable San Juan really is from the cruise port • What you can see with no excursion booked 🚢 Ship: Independence of the Seas šŸ“ Port: San Juan, Puerto Rico 🧳 The hat and shirts you see me wearing in the videos are from the barely packed store šŸ‘‡ 🧳 This is the cruise where Traci and I realized we should work together and create the barely packed store: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVpgXoLEwxkV8-nM2Fen9NuZaAkLWZ8Hy&si=0MUvwRVrj9AyHNwv šŸ‘‡ Support the Channel You’ll often see me wearing barely packed gear in the videos — check it out šŸ‘‡ 🧳 barely packed store https://barely-packed.myshopify.com šŸ‘ barely packed facebook (merch updates) https://www.facebook.com/barelypacked? šŸ“ø barely packed instagram (new designs) https://www.instagram.com/barelypackedshop?igsh=dWprdDl6cm9tOTg3&utm_source=qr #royalcaribbean #cruisevlog #sanjuan
