Creator's Key Takeaways
I took my first ever transatlantic and those of you who know me know I normally avoid SE days too many SE days because I do get travel sick
I'm glad I went I'm glad I went I I always say I will try absolutely anything uh once and I will but yes now I know it's sort of just confirmed to me that a transatlantic is not my kind of cruise
I think it's so much better to know because there's a million different cruises you can take I just want you to be able to look at my content and say yeah that one not that one
I paid £79 for an eight night cruise and Cunard are not they're not on the cheaper end of cruises normally they're a bit more luxurious
