Creator's Key Takeaways
the stereotype of a cruise ship is not something I particularly want to go on so we thought you know if we can create the kind of cruise ship that our self and our friends would want to go on then we'd go on it
they've created magic every corner you turn on the cruise ship it's it's literally magical
I'm absolutely convinced we can do the same in the cruise or what we call voyages business
