Creator's Key Takeaways

I wanted to take a vacation that I could just do nothing I didn't want in an itinerary I didn't want to make decisions with someone

I just got addicted from cruising solo from that point on

I love the variety that probably on any ship you know you can eat gluten-free

Don't focus on the double occupancy to actually determine what you want to pay for for a particular cruise

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Determine your price range first, then look across cruise lines to find a cruise that fits
✓Avoid the buffet if you have a gluten allergy to prevent cross-contamination
✓Use the shared table option in the app to socialize if you want

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Paying double for a solo cruise — Focus on your desired price range rather than the double occupancy cost
Being alone or not being able to talk to people — Cruisers are friendly and outgoing; it's helped me come out of my shell
