Creator's Key Takeaways

I had the crazy idea to pack up my life here in the UK put all of this into storage get on a flight and go and see the world

I took a tiny little Christmas bubble on the ships with me that I would then display in my cabin as we approach Christmas

I would work out how to get Wi-Fi every couple of days that would mean that sometimes I would commit an hour of one of my port days

I went home for the summer holiday for a number of reasons but I had a few commitments in the UK and also cruise ships are so busy in summer

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Consider a Wi-Fi package to stay connected with home, buying passes every few days instead of a full plan
βœ“Structure long-term travel with phases and plan to go home in between to ease homesickness
βœ“Bring or buy food and drink items that remind you of home for comfort
βœ“Write a journal or record a video diary to process thoughts and feelings
βœ“Make new friends on board by joining shared dining tables or meetups
βœ“Accept that it's fine to miss home and have a list of ways to feel better
