Creator's Key Takeaways

When I tell people I worked on cruise ships for 10 years, the first thing I hear is, "Wait, you worked 10 to 12 hours a day, seven days a week, and lived in a shoe box cabin with a stranger from the other side of the world."

And it absolutely was because cruise ships have taken me to places where I would never have even thought to go if I was traveling on my own.

I always say the best thing about working on cruise ships is the people that you meet.

But all of these things are the reason why working on a cruise ship is the best thing that I ever did.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“If you want to work on a cruise ship and you don't do it, I guarantee that when you reach 80 years old, that niggle will still be there.

๐Ÿ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

leaving family and friends behind โ€” By overcoming that, it kind of makes you feel invincible because if you can deal with all that change at once and not only deal with it, but thrive, you're going to be fine.
sharing a cabin with someone from a different background โ€” You will of course both speak English, but and most likely you've got different ways of doing things because you've both been raised in opposite sides of the world.
