I Cruise Explora Journeys To See If It Lives Up To The Hype! (Podcast #455)

Before boarding my Explora Journeys cruise, I had many questions, including if this new line would live up to the rave online reviews, who it is competing with, and who they were aiming at as I’d started seeing many ads targeting families with kids. So, as I boarded Explora II in Barcelona for an 11-night cruise, I was eager to discover more, and I did come away with clear answers, and one hurdle that had me thinking hard if I would cruise with them again.

The Dark Side of Living on Cruise Ships: By Those Who’ve Done it! (Podcast #531)

For many people, the idea of living part, or full-time, on cruise ships sounds like a dream-like paradise.

Things I think you need to know about. In another video (https://youtu.be/qlV2QabCRkQ  ), I looked at the options and what it REALLY costs to live on cruise ships today but in this, I pull back the curtains on the downsides.
