Life On-board A Cruise ship....... For 9 months!!!!!!!!!!! #OMG

Thinking about travelling the world??? Want a change of scenery??? Not afriad of getting Sea Sick?? Over 21...........???

Get your ASS on a cruise ship!!!! See the world, meet amazing people!!! Bar work, Casinos, Shops, Restaurant, Spa...

For Spa interest: http://www.onespaworld.com/



The Work on a Cruise ship is not as glamorous as it seems and is most defo isnt for people looking for a holiday!!! It is hard work... it is long long hours and some departments dont even get a day off in a week, (CRAZY)! 

Pros:
  • You see the world, And places you may never even thought of going to.
  • You realise how strong and determined you really are as a person.
  • You save alot of money (if you dont spent it in the crew bar that is)!
  • You meet people from all over the world, And make friends for Life
  • You learn things that will take you years to learn on land.
  • You appreciate every little thing, and everyone in your life.
Cons:
  • You work extremely long hours, you become beyond tired its hard to function.
  • The food.. makes you FAT. processed and processed.
  • Lack of time to yourself.. cant just go for a walk when you feel. Your life on the ship is organised by your manager... you can get a call at 12am ''come to the spa, you didnt do this this and this''
  • No privacy, everyone knows you, your cabin and your business.
  • Share bunk beds in a tiny tiny room with a tiny tiny bathroom.
  • Spa- income is commission base. This means, you may be working a 14 hr shift with zero guests and you get $0.00!!!! 
  • You get lonely... Home seems so far away.

But Everyone's Experience is Totally Different and I recommend Everyone Interested and thinking of doing the cruise ship to apply... Whats to loose? Life is so short.. GO SEE THE WORLD!!!!



3 Things I wish I knew Before Leaving:
  • To bring a hard drive and mini laptop for movies and wifi & also to back up photos as the months go on.
  • To bring clothes for ALL weather types (packing for 9months is very hard)
  • To pack bedcovers to make it feel like home.


Home Will Always Be There!!! :)
