You should do a "get to know Graham" segment - he seems so sweet and I love your friendship!

[@sueartz6830]

We are going to miss him. Hope your next contract you’re together again

[@jessicagreen2351]

Yes please 🙌

[@karbear26]

I’m so glad your aunt and uncle were able to be on your cruise! That’s awesome that you get to eat for free while they’re on too for normal Dining! Chops looks amazing!! Enjoy the rest of your time on this contract!

[@mackenzieb2218]

jordan i really appreciate these long videos!! i know it's a lot of editing daily, but i love them!

[@jbauth]

I appreciate you!!! thanks so much 🥺

[@gloriouslyimperfect]

Order compression bags for your packing on the way home. There are some that you can just roll the air out of instead of needing a vacuum cleaner. That was the on,y way I got my semester abroad stuff home. 😂

[@bethgintx]

That is so great that you are able to spend quality time with your Aunt and Uncle and they treated you to Chops. Thanks for your honesty with talking about money - it is such a personal thing. So looking forward to hearing about your next contract and hoping it is on one of the 8 future cruises I have booked!

[@doxiemomma2014]

You have been my new favorite comfort vlogger since I found your channel this month. I immediately loved your content and your vibes. You motivate me to keep up healthy habits but also be realistic with myself when needed and give myself grace. I like the financial content so keep that in rotation for sure.

[@HazelHammond1505]

I hope Your Aunt and Uncle had a fun time for there first cruise.

[@sbragdon212]

Day 1 ended and i was so sucked in i thought the video was over. Then i realized I’m only 8 mins into a 34 min video!!! Yess! Thanks for the long one 😂

[@ladydove45]

Hi Jordan, I really enjoyed your video/vlog today. It sure was nice that your aunt and uncle came to cruise, and spend some time with you.

[@designdoctor247]

[@lisaclark4555]

I love ❤ your videos. So glad your family comes to visit and you can introduce your other family to them. ❤. Please be safe. Have a great day and thanks for sharing your story.

[@mkcheergrl12]

I JUST GOT MY HOODIE!!! Although I will say it’s. 2X and it’s really on the small side, more like a large. I haven’t washed dit yet so I’m thinking it will shrink. Something to know for those of your fans who are plus size. LOVE YOU and hope you’re doing amazing!

Can’t wait to hear what your next adventure will be!

[@shellysmom7002]

Jordan, I don’t know where you buy your coffee but, if you’ve ordered pretty consistently thru Nespresso they may send you a new machine for free. I called for support w/ what sounds like a similar problem and at 1st they offered me a discount and I said no thanks I’ll just switch back to my old drip pot… they said hold on, you’ve been a loyal customer( ordering my coffee from them) we are sending you a replacement for FREE!!! They even let us pick the machine.

[@inwood1121]

The fact that you referred to you aunt as your uncles "partner" is disrespectful on so many levels. You might as well call her the woman your uncle married.

[@jenniferferreira9061]

Oh how fun. You got to spend time with your uncle and his partner. First cruise, how fun. ❤❤

[@designdoctor247]

12:17 sad 😢the onion soup ...my fav does not even look nice ...we cruised Voyager of the Sea a couple weeks ago...sadly the food was not memorable n two nights we went back to our cabin n ate protien bars we brought ... this was our first experiance w bad food on Royal...ww were shocked n disapointed.

[@beccy8679]

I absolutly love all your Videos. The Vlog Style and the lenght is so perfect 😍

[@jbauth]

thank you so much🥺

Just find you today and bing watch your videos, they are so fun. I'm subscribing!! (one less step to get to 100k eheh)

[@kathim182]

Hi Jordan, I just watched your video and enjoyed it. I was wondering if the cruise companies usually only hire young people and do they hire Canadians? If you don’t know the answers, who do you think I can contact? Thanks

[@harborspringsgirl]

My husband and I ate at Chops on our Alaskan cruise a month or so ago and it was so yummy!!

[@kristinlueb5606]

I love Graham!! You surround yourself with the best people!! It shows what a good friend you are when all the good ones gravitate to you every contract !!!

Not you making me tear UP RN KRISTIN!! 🥲🥲🥲but Graeme is just the best right🥹

[@kristinlueb5606]

@@jbauth he is!! 💗

[@dwellspompano]

Hi Jordan, I love all of your videos. I especially enjoyed this video because I was on this cruise. I got to meet you in person and say hi on the last (I believe) open skate session, while you were in the upper seats overseeing everything. For anyone else reading this comment Jordan is just as charming in person as she is on video. I also saw you perform twice on the ice and also in the parade. Side note, Labadee wasn't a total washout. It lightly rained for a few minutes. But I was able to spend about 2 hours on shore buying souvenirs and taking in the sights. I wish you much happiness and success in your future endeavors 👍🏼😁

[@designdoctor247]

eeekkkk best comment EVER!!! very excited for u!!!😊

[@tomcollins5112]

LOVE you and your Work Husband, Graham!!! Please do more contracts with him!!!❤🧡💛🛥

[@Randilynn66]

Btw, Trump removed most FEDERAL work related deductions and that is still in effect until 2025( will probably renew if he is elected). Work related expenses are deductible for State taxes.

[@Pinkkermit17]

I have knowledge on how much performers - cast- skaters typically make on a cruise ship.. for the amount of hours worked including the side jobs they make them do ,working 7 days a week, the pay is crap. I feel even worse for the staff who work in the other areas who have little time to themselves. I understand the experience- people would not do it if they didnt love it. Jordan clearly loves her job,which is more then most people can say, but do they get paid well.. nope…..

[@jpmiller99]

$60 a week is insane. I'd love that. Free room, food, laundry, and no wifi expense. It's amazing. Just make sure to invest that money LoL

[@elizabeththompson1525]

So informative! That’s incredible that you can save 85% but disappointing that you didn’t get any grief compensation.

[@user-zl3qe8lx1d]

Seeing those views, from the ship, of the port locations is absolutely breathtaking!! And the sunsets! 🌅 ❤️🩷💜🧡💛I can see why you love your job so much! Having your Aunt and Uncle on board looks like such a wonderful time and amazing meals!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@RiverWoods111]

I just found your channel, and I am really enjoying it. I've been doing a bit of out-of-order binge-watching. This question is from an earlier video today from like 8 months ago. You were showing off your heels, and then talking about your skates you said you have to buy child sizes. How do you find high heels that look like grown-up shoes in children's? Forgive me, I was cursed with clown shoe size feet, meaning I have feet to match my legs that belong on someone 6'3 inches tall so big feet. The thing is I am only 5" almost 8 inches tall. I only mean that I am "only" because of my legs that belong to a 6'3" tall person. To have small feet would be a dream to me! 😂 I know the struggles of finding big sizes in extremely narrow sizes, and I have heard people who wear super small-size shoes have a similar experience.

[@abbyabroad]

I’m from FL & live in China so seeing Publix made me go 😭😭😭😭

[@pcakes122]

It's great that you are being super smart with your money!! 😀💰💰💰👍🏻 One thought might be if you were at risk of missing a scheduled upload, you might just purchase a few dollars of WiFi then since it would be tax-deductible! 😀 👍🏻💖

[@julietaylor6080]

When are you going to tell us what ship you will be on next?? My fingers are crossed that you will be on Icon hopefully when I cruise in Sept. I would love to see you skate in person. I heard you say that you will only be doing one more contract. How amazing would that be to go out on the incredible Icon of the Seas!! I will miss your ship vlogs so much when you quit, but I'm sure you will continue to do amazing things with your life. Many blessings! ❤

[@ethnebasson8233]

Thanks for sharing your expenses for the week I find it interesting. And nice to see you spend time with family I hope they enjoyed their cruise. So when you log off this contract is Callum logging off to or will you meet up with him later.

[@ElsaLoui]

Great video as always ❤

[@NancyLiedel]

If you're home right now you are exactly on the opposite side of the lake from me as the length goes. I'm in Monroe, MI

[@sarinapolmear2894]

wondering do you have to book at the windjamer? or can you just turn up? how do you pay for it? taken outta your wages? and when you book your specialty resaturants is there a wait list or could you go that night?

[@amiepanzer4472]

I have been watching awhile and it seems like you are ready to be done with this contract. You seem tired and ready to go home. Will you be back on a ship? Are you taking any vacations?

[@kayleighmontgomery96]

That omlet looks amazing. Mind sharing the name of the place? 😘

[@rachelbucci5459]

I’m sure you don’t really know who I am, but I remember going to elementary school with you! By the way you are a beautiful skater and It’s amazing to see what people from my past are doing and seeing all of us grow up❤

[@carlim6356]

Absolutely love your channel! I just have to say that I sincerely appreciate that you don't give amounts!

[@kristincharles83]

Is that Hogwarts legacy on the tv at the end lol. Love that game.

yes callum has been playing 🤣

[@allee541]

Must be fantastic having family visit!! time for your parents again soon! that is a cheap week 😀

[@ailsleywillcox9350]

Hi Jordan, I absolutely adore your channel. How do you manage time zone changes? Are you still collecting postcards from the Ports. How easily are they to locate when you are out and about. If you have too much stuff to take home, are you able to purchase luggage/travel bags onboard?

[@morrispearl9981]

I was thinking about you when I was at the cruise terminal getting on Oasis of the Seas during that rain storm on 18 February. I went to their Studio B to see their Ice Show: Frozen In Time, and I was really impressed with the talent of those figure skaters. All the ships are so full because many schools were off for the holiday.

[@Randilynn66]

Whenever we cruise, I can't wait to try some new foods in ports. I really get sick of the same old, same old so I cant even imagine how you tire of your crew mess.

[@HyphenDude]

Someone was playing Hogwarts Legacy, I see.

[@jbauth]

I have been watching for a while. You are an inspiration to all ages. So nice of your aunt and uncle to be near at the end of your contact. P.S. I see you eat a lot of oats. Please research regular oats vs organic oats.

[@malloryg7214]

You keep mentioning the food on board…do you feel the food just isn’t what you’re wanting to eat so there aren’t options, or is it rough overall for crew?

[@jbauth]

it’s rough overall, the biggest issue for the crew is the quality.. how it’s prepared, served cold, under or overcooked, etc

You just seem to fly on the ice.

You are so tan!! Can I make a friendly suggestion? When you're home, order some Korean sunscreens from Stylevanna or Yes style. Korean sunscreens use more advanced filters than the US. They provide a lot better UVA and UVB coverage. Way more affordable too. If you'd like some recs, let me know. They really are game changers.
