While in Belize I decided to have a real talk and tell you what I really think about working on a cruise ship. Jump to 5:02. What do you think?

Fascinating information in here - I'm always so interested in the views from the crew onboard the ships - thanks for sharing!

Thank you, @FraserAtSea! I am sure you have heard many? Before I started my contract, I was looking for something like this to get an understanding of what life is really like for crew onboard. There are different stories and outlooks, and I wanted to offer mine for anyone seeking information as well.

Wish you'd chosen a less windy spot! But thank you for sharing.

You and me both! It wasn't so much the wind as much as my wireless mic wasn't properly connected to my GoPro. It picked up all the other noise quite well! :)

Hey Dan , just want to say your vids have helped me a lot . I’ve actually been hired by princess to work in the same position as you ( asst purser ) . I’ve just received my L.O.I. with a provisional sign on date on August 18th which is around the corner lol . I’m super excited and nervous. But just reaching out because maybe I’ll run into you one day who knows ! Anyways , thank you so much for doing these vids . I searched KZbin countless times to find others in our same position but I never could find it 😂. But , take care & I wish you well on all your future endeavors!😊

I’ve just handed in all my documents a couple days ago. I’m going to be a Jr Purser. How long did you have to wait to hear back about your assignment?
@DANOVERBOARDvlogsАй бұрын
It was about a month, I believe. I have a video about being in limbo while awaiting to hear, and when I did, it all came together very quickly. Let us know which ship you'll be on?

@@DANOVERBOARDvlogs Yeah I’ll let you know when I find out. On my visa letter they put The Emerald, but that was just for the visa application. It could be any!

Seems my GoPro mic was defaulted instead of my wireless mic. I didn't want to scrap the information and I hope it's valuable to anyone who wants to know.
