Creator's Key Takeaways

We don't want to be sitting in a bar posting stuff on Instagram.

We remain in control of our social media that it doesn't control us.

We're not going to help a cruise line sell more cruises to people in an inauthentic way unless we believe it or we've experienced it.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Find a seasickness medication that works for you before you cruise.
โœ“Bonine (meclizine) is effective and non-drowsy for some.
โœ“Maintain a work-life balance to prevent burnout.

About our Bacon Score methodology
YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

Are we the worst travel influencers/vloggers on the internet? Probably. We don't post every day, we turn down products we haven't tried, we show you the sea sickness and good with the bad, and somehow we're totally fine with all of it. In this week's live show, Jill and Jerry pull back the curtain on why Cruising Canucks deliberately breaks every rule in the influencer playbook โ€” and why being real, honest, and balanced will always matter more to us than going viral. Join us live and tell us what you think in the chat! Hi, we are Jill and Jerry, and we invite you to subscribe to our channel. We have cruised on ten different cruise lines for over twenty years now, and we look forward to sharing our experiences with you. We will be posting Cruise VLOGS, videos that cover ship reviews, cabin tours, ship tours, and all of the fun in between! ๐Ÿ”ฅWe hope you Subscribe for more cruise adventures!! โญ๏ธ Join our Socials at: โžก๏ธ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/CruisingCanucks โžก๏ธ Instagram: @cruisingcanucks โžก๏ธ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/cruisingcanucks โžก๏ธ Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/TheCruisingCanucks/ โžก๏ธ BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/cruisingcanucks.bsky.social โžก๏ธ Our WEBSITE at: https://www.cruisingcanucks.com โžก๏ธ Check out our Merchandise at: https://www.cruisingcanucks.ca/gear/ โžก๏ธ Join our EMAIL list at: https://cruisingcanucks.ck.page/dd2b4b8b3f We can be reached at: Cruising Canucks โ€ข P.O.
