Creator's Key Takeaways

today has been quite interesting for my first experience on NCL after over 30 solo cruises it's my first solo cruise on Norwegian Cruise Line

I felt nickel and dime before even stepping onto the ship since this was my first time cruising NL I for a basic package that I could get

I love love love my state room this solo Ocean View cabin I absolutely love it and I would recommend it

this was the absolute best solo experience ever for meeting and connecting with other solos
