Creator's Key Takeaways

We bought a cabin on a ship. That's right. So you guys haven't heard from us for a while.

We paid 100,000 for a cabin cuz we were in ground floor one of the first people before they had a ship.

We're just happy we locked in a low price and we just got to cover that and money for excursions and then we're good.

The cabin is only a bedroom. Remember that. We only sleep there and shower there.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Use Chase points for excursions when possible.
โœ“Ask ChatGPT for local activities and plan routes back to the ship.

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

Cabin size โ€” The cabin is only a bedroom; the rest of the ship is your living space.
Cost of living on the ship โ€” Locked in a low monthly price for 15 years, making it affordable.

Why did we leave the Villa Vie Odyssey? Why did we disappear for six weeks? In this honest life update, weโ€™re sharing the full story โ€” the emotional, the unexpected, and the deeply personal moments that pulled us off the ship and away from the channel for a while. From a difficult goodbye in Puerto Vallarta, to precious family time in Phoenix (including meeting our two brand-new grandbabies ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ‘ถ), and an unplanned journey across the world to Sweden to be with Johanโ€™s dad โ€” this season reminded us that even the most carefully planned life at sea can change in an instant.
