Creator's Key Takeaways

My very first cruise. I nearly I nearly died.

I thought I had to do everything. I thought I had to get up early for breakfast, go on an excursion, come back, watch all the shows.

When I got back, you talk about somebody who was literally dead tired.

Understand you don't have to do everything. Understand when you pull into a port, you don't have to do an excursion.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Pace yourself and don't try to do everything on a cruise.
You don't have to go on an excursion at every port.
Understand that you can choose what activities to do.
