You'll be able to spend 2-7 days in each city. Other cruises spend a few hours in a city/on an island.

I would be all over this if I didn't have kids, 375 destinations and over 135 countries is ridiculous and your spending up to 7 days in each port/ country, imagine cultural immersion instead of seeing all the tourist things.....

no

i don't like cruises.

however for the type of person that does 33k for a year isn't that bad of a deal.

people spend over 1k for less than a week.

Wait are you paying for anything or are all the expenses on the ship covered? Sorry I'm not reading that article. If everything is covered as far as expenses on the ship yes I would do it.

I would have to see how fast and reliable their internet is.

I imagine the cost covers food and all other utility costs.

If I was in my early 20s or if I’m old in my 60s then yes I would absolutely go.

If I’m in the middle I don’t think I could afford to give up 3 yrs of the most productive part of my life at $33k a year.

The young can travel, meet lots of people, and gain life experience all in a safe environment and all for FREE. If you are older and never did much traveling or fun experiences then you can make up for it with those 3 years.


EDIT: I answered without watching. :mjlol: I thought OP meant, WORKING on the cruise ship and earning $33k a year. So, he’ll no, I ain’t paying $99k for a 3 year cruise. :gucci:

I've been on a 10 day cruise and that was too much, can't imagine 3 years. Even if they let you opt out after a few months...nah. I had a blast but the longer you're on a cruise, the more you start seeing things that make you realize you gotta get out of there lol. You start hearing about people getting sick and don't think much about it, then you realize damn such and such been in their room for days. Then you start hearing things. Every day on the cruise I remember hearing an old person (who I didn't know) saying something like "did you hear Bill hasn't come out his room today? He didn't sleep last night and is too tired." Even as a kid I felt more tired as the days went by. You just feel cramped up, even if you walk around the ship.

Your entire perception of time changes. The ship never truly shuts off or goes to sleep, and many a night I'd find myself walking around eating an ice cream cone and then realizing oh shyt it's 3AM fukk. Go back to your room, try to go to sleep and suddenly it's 8AM and you slept maybe an hour. Time to get up and go to that nice breakfast spot you found lol. It feels like being in Vegas too long, but way worse since you aren't on land.
