🎉 Welcome newcomers. Please check the video description and other videos on the channel before asking a question as I may have already answered it. Welcome aboard. Here's how I got started getting cruise deals: ua-cam.com/video/P7xL4TmrkFI/v-deo.htmlsi=MxH6MMEGtGiCdgvW 🤗🛳💜 Welcome Aboard!
Lynelle, anyone can request a robe on Carnival ships, no matter what level you are. I’m Gold (only 10 days shy of Platinum) and I request a robe when I first see my steward. Get your robe, hon!
on the Venezia now let me tell you how i stopped the video when you said plug in. this is my 3rd time on the ship and i haven't been in that area till now. so i am happily plugged in right now
You’re right, I’ve been on deck 9 on two different cruises, and we loved only walking up one flight of stairs to the lido deck! Plus the location of the cabin was great, near the elevator, and I didn’t hear any noises from upstairs! I will keep in mind deck eleven in the future! Thanks for sharing 😎🛳🛳
@BeefromSC Yes, exactly. Well, imma make a video but this cruise I'm on deck 9 & under Guy's Burgers. It was a nightmare...kinda. 😆 Never again. Imma stick w/ deck 11 🙌🏽🏆😂 Thx for watching. 🌻🛳
This is the first video that talked about floor level. My husband has ambulatory issues so this would have been good info to have for our first cruise.
Great content!!! I too am a solo cruiser…….I work two jobs and absolutely love cruising…..however, kind of tired of going solo all the time…..I’m on the Carnival Conquest for Christmas Dec 23 - Dec 27.. my balcony is paid for.. you should come with me…..
@larryk.watson2778 😂 Where dey do dat at? 👀 Mr. Larry, thx for the offer. I'm already booked on a different Christmas cruise & I love being solo. 🤗🤷🏽♀️ Funny thing is, my ship also goes to Nassau & Half Moon Cay! 👀😎😅🎄🎉
@@PovertyToParadise where they do that at?? lol .. well….a few cruises ago I belonged to a Facebook group for a certain carnival cruise..and discovered many who successfully did it… they actually met before the cruise to see if it was a positive vibe… absolutely was not about a love connection.. absolutely not… they found a travel companion….you seem like a ton of fun……”where they do that” is funny as it is a thing, at least on Carnival….😂
@@phyllisharris2766 hey.. Hope you are well.. yep. Life is too short.. my children are grown and gone.. been grown and gone!! Praise the Lord!!! I just woke up one day during Covid and said I will live now.. I have not looked backed… I work 6 to 7 days per week with two jobs.. honestly..all I do is eat and sleep enjoy my balcony…. Get off ship at ports and shop… oh people watch.. what a sight to behold… lol
@ccpp3413 Hi. I suggest browsing through the videos on this channel. I have given lots of tips that will help you. Here is one video to get you started: ua-cam.com/video/cHiZcymJDDQ/v-deo.htmlsi=L5Un2Qu2a6ws3-Nx
I don’t like the laundry 🧺 idea. I always wash my clothes at least twice, so not loving the idea of someone else doing my laundry. I am glad you mentioned that because I didn’t realize this ship didn’t have facilities for you to do your own. My daughter booked our trip as a surprise, so I know nothing. She does being on a cruise before, but January will be the first trip for my husband & myself.
Heyyyy! Love this! I am Bermudian American I work with people on the island we would love to have you come and do an excursion with us! We are currently scheduling for group meditation sessions by the water.
Just a little safety tip, as you are a woman traveling alone I would recommend you not publish your room number on You Tube while you are still on the ship.
Your videos are inspiring. I am always scared to do things alone. I would love to travel like you and live free. You should create travel trips for people that don't like to travel alone and they can meet people like them on the trip. I am going to try a cruise first, before I can say I could do this. I love the idea of it though. Keep up the fun work. Maybe one day I will a chance to join you on one of your trips.
@ashantiagurs7002 Haha, I love the idea but keep in mind, I "retired" and I am building a soft life of ease so this is not a "business" for me, just a way to share what I have learned to help others. I'm so glad the videos are inspiring to you. Thanks for sharing that and thanks for watching. 🤗🛳🌻p.s., if you can grocery shop alone, you can travel alone. No need to be scared. 💜💛🖤
@PovertyToParadise thanks for responding. I will stay tuned in for more and one day I might try traveling alone. 😊😊 Thanks for sharing your experience with us.
I loved your video about living on a cruise ship full-time! It seems like such an adventurous and freeing lifestyle. I'm curious about how you make it all work financially. Do you mind sharing a bit about how you set yourself up to live this way comfortably after selling your home and car? I'd love to understand how you balance everything to stay within that $2,000 a month on Carnival
@laichen5170 Hi and welcome to the channel. The video below answers your question and other videos on the channel should be helpful too. Let me know if you need any clarification. Thanks for watching. 😊🛳 ua-cam.com/video/zxPeKBPawYo/v-deo.htmlsi=IT6sbb7IJ3-0vPbN
Do you no longer spend a maximum of $100/day in the casino? Have you done a comparison video between Carnival and Royal Caribbean? The Carnival ships appear to be older/old designs compared to Royal Caribbean. The ship in this video looks newer than most Carnival ships but still dated. Great video!
@SpeakSteph 😆😊 🛳 Welcome aboard. Please check out the video description and other videos on the channel then let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for watching. 🤗💜

@deborahshaffer13 Easy peasy. I come back to the states EVERY week & can get off the ship when I need to. My doctor gave me a year supply of prescriptions & I go to the pharmacy like everyone else. 🤗🛳
Hi Ms. Chirstine Garcia. If you scroll through my videos, you will find answers to most questions. Here are a couple of links to get you there quickly: What's in my carry-on luggage - ua-cam.com/video/zbht7037p64/v-deo.html What's in my backpack - ua-cam.com/video/NNt5_x4Dw-g/v-deo.html
@lynngevity3724 Um, none. I made a few lives about being stuck in Bahamas & a lightning storm from Hurricane Helene, but honestly, they were not scary. Perhaps because I know the ships are "overly" cautious so, I have not been "afraid" on any of my cruises. Thanks for the question 🤗🛳
Hi & welcome. You must be new here? I don't ONLY live on this particular ship. I'm living here for 2 months, then heading to other ships as I have done in the past. When you book a cruise, you select cabins based on availability. If the room is available, yes, I can book it again. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching 🤗🛳

You are living my dream life! *I like the way you are living on a cruise ship vs purchasing a room on a ship. Thank you for sharing your journey.

@bridgetlapointe5657 Ms Bridget, I been missing out!?! OK, new cruise starts tomorrow. It'll be the FIRST thing I ask for. Thank you SO MUCH!!! 🌻💛😊
@PovertyToParadise You’re very welcome! Thank you for all your videos! Even though I’ve been cruising since the 80s, I’m learning a lot from you.
@bridgetlapointe5657 @povertytoparadise Do you get to keep the robe or is it just for use during that cruise?
I got one this cruise! 😂🎉Ms. Brooklyn, for during the cruise or they will charge you for it if you take it home.
@@PovertyToParadise I’m glad you got one!
Living my Cruise life thru you Girllll... Thanks for the info.
I love the gold trim...its a little bit fancy 😁

Going solo is expensive. Any tips until I start getting a free cruise? How many cruises before free

ua-cam.com/video/JI27fGaMjag/v-deo.htmlsi=zD8qZC2EI31VrbsU
Would ur budget allow a trip to Europe or Greece? Just curious
I have cruises in Europe scheduled in 2025, yes. #StayTuned
How do you request your bed to be separated?
There is a spot in the online reservation that you can request it and also, you can just ask the cabin steward [housekeeper]. 🚢
What about prescription medicine?? How do you refill medicine?
@deborahshaffer13 Easy peasy. I come back to the states EVERY week & can get off the ship when I need to. My doctor gave me a year supply of prescriptions & I go to the pharmacy like everyone else. 🤗🛳

Which cruise has been the scariest, weatherwise?

you're living on the ship can't you have the same room the whole time you're living there?
