Hey, I hope you're having a lovely week! I've been doing one of my favourite things this week... researching potential cruises I'd like to book. 😂😂

The problem is, there are approximately 79547054 different cruises I'd like to take and so I need your help deciding! 🙏🏼🥰

If there’s a cruise line you’d love to see me try next, tell me here:

You can tick as many as you'd like. So far, Holland America are in the lead. I've never cruised with them but I'm sure I'd enjoy it. 😁🥰

Going on a cruise isn’t like most land based trips. You’re miles from land and if something goes wrong, it’s much harder and more expensive to fix.

That’s why regular travel insurance often doesn’t cover cruises, you need specific cruise cover.

THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING ABOUT CRUISING, DON'T SKIP THIS!! If you only ever listen to one thing I say, MAKE IT THIS!! 😂

AD - I've found an aaaaamazing price for a cruise on my favourite Marella ship if anybody is free in April and fancies seeing the sun... 😂✈️

7 Nights - Includes flights from the UK, transfers, all gratuities/tips and drinks (including alcohol) - £990 per person!! 🥰🛳️

I'd book it if I hadn't already been on the ship twice within the last 12 months. Videos on YouTube here! 💻🩷

Price correct as of sending. Cruise date: 10th of April. Marella Voyager.

When I got an email asking if I wanted to bid on a cabin upgrade for my cruise, I honestly didn’t think much of it.

I’ve been cruising for years and I’ve never once had an upgrade bid accepted, probably because I always bid the absolute minimum possible.

If you are sailing on an Azamara ship, you aren’t going to want to miss a trip to “The Patio”.

The Patio can be found on all four Azamara ships.

Yes, I have a strange haircut here. This was after my second charity head shave. We raised $45,000 for a cancer support charity by doing it live on my channel! You can watch that here.​

It’s not uncommon to hear about cruise ships undergoing refurbishment.

With the high passenger turnover and the sheer number of people taking cruise holidays, it’s perfectly understandable that ships need a well-deserved makeover every so often.
