Creator's Key Takeaways

despite all the cruises i've done i only once came across someone actually living on a cruise ship

cruise ships are designed and run for short-term vacation travel they're not set up for people to go on permanently

to really control costs if you want to live on a ship you need to stick to the caribbean rather than explore the world

it's a great fantasy it's a great idea and now you know what it costs

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Stick to Caribbean itineraries for most of the year to control costs

✓Consider an inside cabin to minimize expenses

✓Jump between ships within the same line to find the lowest prices

✓Avoid leaving the ship in ports to save on excursions

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

High costs — Stick to Caribbean itineraries and choose inside cabins to reduce expenses
