Creator's Key Takeaways

I was forced to fully experience the cruise instead of filming it.

We're all so focused on documenting the moment that we're actually missing the actual moment.

This forced digital detox made me realize how much we all become slaves to capturing everything instead of just enjoying it.

I had an incredible cruise even without my iPhone.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Always test your gear yourself before you trust it with something expensive.
Calculate your own risk factors to decide if phone insurance makes sense for you.
Put the phone down to be present in the moment during your cruise.
