Tell us all - why did you take this contract, how long is it, what are you doing as a routine and as overtime, what is your position and what are you responsible for, where are you, where are you going, what are you learning, do you prefer a big ship or a smaller one, what is the cargo, tell us about the rest of the crew, are you entertaining them with your guitar, etc. etc.
Hi Madeleine Nice to see you’re bearing up, tired, but bearing up. Work, eat, sleep- repeat. Sometimes you just got to slog through things. It’s only later you realise the difficulties can teach you more than good times. You asked for questions…what was the personal process/experience of starting in shipping and getting your experience. Costs, difficulties etc
Well look at this from a positive point of view. This little ship is still afloat & under way AND you are not tied up to a dock in China not underway. Roll with the program. Thank you for the up date.
Looks like all you do is live it up. Like a boss!! Keep up the great work M! Love anything and everything you put up! Makes me want to get to that next level as a sailor!
Lady and the Tramp rocking and rolling on to the next port. If you are learning a Ton then that is a very positive thing for being on this ship at this time. Looking forward to the next video as always and be safe out there and have fun that's what an adventure is for.
I look forward to your videos showing the behind the scenes of shipping. Do you have any "weird" cargo you can talk about? Your adventure video's make my day! Be safe and see you in the next video.
We’re always glad to hear from you ! We know your very self reliant , well traveled, and smart . But we still worry a little…haha… post when you can , calm winds and fair seas for you . Vivid blue water is a clue for us……..
Hi Madeleine, love the videos. You make it look cool. Is your regular OT just out on deck with the deck crew, or are there other OT duties for officers? Thanks so much for your work documenting your travels.
Rockin Roll Awesome bow water shot ♥️ drag your guitar around some coradors and different parts of the ship, do some licks 🎶 and bits to show us around the ship and meet your mates 😮
Glad to see you're doing better than what you're expecting. Jeez. crew of 15 ? That's tiny from what I was used to in MSC, ~100. but about what I have in the academic research fleet. Keep it up!
Size wise it is small but you are definitely spot on about small ships are actually huge nonetheless. And for you to be on a tramp ship and doing the dog watch, it’s definitely challenging. Keep rockin Mad.
Thanks for commenting! All questions/comments on this video will be responded to in the next monthly update 🙌 Loving everything I'm seeing so far!
When I’m watchin I felt that I’m f*ckn rolling too🥲I really felt that

So is the fast roll a product of how the ship is loaded or an inherent design trait?
Sounds like that ship is lucky to have you aboard. Your have real leadership skills so keep your eyes open. I hope you have some fun.
Looks like all you do is live it up. Like a boss!! Keep up the great work M! Love anything and everything you put up! Makes me want to get to that next level as a sailor!

As a new applicant to mmp how would you say is the best way to get jobs consistently
Sleep deprivation!

How many TEU is your ship? What do you do on watch?
Are you crane certified now!? 😄
Cool! The street food is supposed to be great in Singapore! How was Diego? Did you see the rats?
Food? Good, bad, too much, too little, too spicy, too boring?
How long do you plan to be a tramps mate ?
