Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm going to start doing a blog series of my time onboard piano Oceania this will be all the pictures and videos that I put together and hopefully this will be really fun and a bit more casual compared to my other videos

I love being able to stay the night before because it means I'm well-rested for embark ation day which can be quite tiring

seeing the ship for the first time when you're driving towards it is probably one of the best things about embark Asian day

Oceana has tons of space it feels very open and especially on the open decks there is a huge range of things to explore

Creator's Tips & Advice

Stay the night before in Southampton to be well-rested for embarkation day
Use online check-in to potentially get on board quicker
Take seasickness tablets as a precaution, especially if the ship is moving
