I love Scentbird! Such a fun way to try new perfumes and the site makes great scent suggestions. :) Also, love your videos! :)

[@wulfeman9948]

are you back on a ship ??

[@kellyyoung5153]

do you have OnlyFans or Passes?

[@MIB_Inc]

your coupon code didn't work

[@bluemoonbookarazzi]

just ordered!

[@xiaowei1]

If you ever give up performing, you can take up video production! That was epic!! Clearly you commit to whatever you throw yourself at.

[@RobertHansenRob]

I have cruised a bit now. You always get to meet the incredible wait staff and activities staff but never the singers and dances. So it was a great vlog so we can appreciate what you guys do too.

[@wanderlustalley]

Aw thank you so much 🤗❤️

[@Serpentius]

Wow, so much energy. Your dancing and showmanship is just off the charts! Thank you for sharing, you are such an incredible performer!

[@wanderlustalley]

Thank you so much!!🤗❤️💕

[@rulerofearthnyc]

Every performer should really do at least one cruise ship contract. It's like performance boot camp - for both stage performers and musicians. You're constantly doing what you love, for live audiences that are always really into your show, and you get get to travel the world and get paid for it!

[@wanderlustalley]

It’s a great experience! So glad I’ve had the opportunity to do it now 🤗

[@Seadog7981]

That what my great uncle thought till he took a job with White Star Lines.

[@c97f]

It's not for everyone. Couple friends were pit musicians for Carnival. Sometimes living with all your coworkers isn't great. Imagine office drama that you can't escape.

[@jetsetginger_]

The editing Alley! You’re Incredible! ❤

[@sgjuxta]

It makes me think of marching drum corps, except the season is like 12 months long instead of just the summer lol

[@SchuminWeb]

Thank you for completing this video with only a brief mention of your injury and a lighthearted mood. Even though we know what happened after production wrapped on this one, it was nice to come back to happier days and see you at your best on the ship, especially after a series of heavier videos as we followed your working through the injury and finally being discharged. Hope your back is recovering well as you start your next adventure.

[@ThomasTomchak]

I'm really glad you did this video. It's a great way to introduce others to the opportunities on a cruise ship, and it's a very well done video. Great job!

[@JadoVO]

First off, I really hope your rehab is successful and you come back feeling great. I was injured in the military and it comes back occasionally to say hello - no fun. Next, I really really hope to see more Alley and mystery boyfriend. That would be wonderful. I also hope you find more opportunities to flex your creative muscles. Regardless of what you choose, our family will be here to support you.

[@jwdc7784]

Hope Japan is treating you well and the back is feeling good! Good to feel your vibes come thru here again. 🙋🏻‍♂️

[@wanderlustalley]

Thank you so much 😊 feeling so much better!

[@captainnemo6723]

Enjoy seeing your story

[@bogdi131313]

This video editing is so gooood!

[@wanderlustalley]

Thank you so much 😭❤️ I’ve put hours into this 😂

[@Calebs_Aviation]

@@wanderlustalleyIt is very clearly edited well and filmed well! 🎥 As a filmmaker and avid viewer I really enjoyed it!

[@grahamdrummond2412]

​@@wanderlustalleyIt's ultra professional, & very interesting

[@jacknolanguitar]

@@wanderlustalleydid you do it yourself?!

[@wanderlustalley]

@@jacknolanguitar yes I did 🤗

[@TheGeminista]

I was sailing on Liberty of the Seas back in December of last year and I remember watching you guys perform Saturday Night Fever! It was amazing and I can't believe it's the end of it now :(

[@captainnemo6723]

One of my favorite things of the day is to look for your next video

[@bobhowe2234]

What a great vlog! One of the BEST on KZbin concerning cruise ship performing!

[@dgrock2484]

Love this woman ,really hope you continue doing videos, don't need to work on a ship to enjoy your content, and you have a great voice , like documentary quality 👌

[@JaimeVivar13]

I saw Ally perform In The Air back in September 2023 on the way back from Bermuda without even knowing it. Looking at the costumes she wears, I can tell she was right in front of me! What a great show. Thanks for showing us this backstage view and how you prepare. Very interesting.

[@wanderlustalley]

Oh my gosh!! Such a small world🤗

[@miniruss123]

This is totally one of your best videos!!

[@glennbeau]

I really enjoyed this episode. The content is interesting and the editing is great. Bravo as the audience would say.

[@wanderlustalley]

Thank you ☺️❤️ I worked really hard on this one!

[@nationalparktravelguides]

Such a well-done video, Alley. And so well edited (five Alleys?!!). It's amazing to follow you and watch how much you've grown as a dancer and performer over all this time. Thanks for sharing this part of your journey and yourself with us. I can tell this one was so personal to you. Can't wait to see what's next for you!

[@wanderlustalley]

Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️

[@Trekkie143]

Wow! I’m super impressed. And the editing was on point. I was surprised when she would be in or around what shes mentioned in an instant. This was a super dope video. ❤ There’s no denying her talents! I know even a year wouldn’t have my skills half as sharp. Maybe a decade or three.

[@rons1566]

Outstanding job! Can’t imagine how proud of you your family is 🌻

[@dylantrinder1571]

It’s lovely to see what you did for work when you were on the ship. Thanks for sharing, keep smiling and have a great time in Japan. ❤

[@karadanvers42]

Hope your recovery is going well Alley. Are you still planning to have Graydon to do your voiceover for a future video? I am looking forward to watching you "talk" with his voice 😄

[@willcookmakeup]

Omg loved this one. You're such a great performer

[@ET-jm7wl]

Awesome Alley, Cant wait to see what you do next!

[@abdiver12]

Thanks for this video, I've been looking forward to seeing something like this for a long time. The moves and tricks you do are amazing, requiring incredible athleticism, flexibility, skill, and coordination. What an athlete you are. Looking forward to your Japan videos! (Hope you visit Borderless in Tokyo btw if you haven't been already. A really amazing place).

[@harborspringsgirl]

The routines looked amazing and I’ve always loved the shows with Royal Caribbean.

[@garydavies2061]

Excellent video Alley, the editing was fantastic, your videos are very professional, kudos to you.

[@wanderlustalley]

Thank you so much❤️😭

[@traveloger]

Your editing level is increasing day by day❤

[@Pearly44-nm7kn]

So funny. 😄 You waited until you weren't on the ship any longer to produce, literally, your best video yet. Super job, Alley! I hope you are well.

[@wanderlustalley]

I’ve been working on it since January 🤣

[@nickvandam1214]

Thanks for going long form on this topic, so interesting. Hope Japan is a blast

[@wanderlustalley]

It needed more time 🤗

[@DavidGurjack]

Loved seeing you perform and all the hard work backstage prepping and all the preparation. Thank you for releasing the video. Well worth the wait. ❤

[@effed_up]

Love your story telling!

[@gregorylensegrav208]

You're energy vibe is awesome

[@astrid_green]

Just came across this. HOW is this some of the best videography I’ve seen from a smaller KZbinr in a LONG time. GURL. Slay.

[@wanderlustalley]

Omg THANK YOU ✨😭🫶

[@flowerobsessed_]

Not only is what you do so cool, but the editing is soooo good. Really enjoyed this vid!

[@AllStars2525]

This is great! Showing us just how much work you put into entertaining the guests. Every job has a lot of practice and prep work and a dancer is not different!! Thanks for the tip about Scentbird!!

[@kyls73]

Looks fantastic. I've been helping out backstage at one of my 23yo daughter's two dancing concerts (Her Nan and I watch the other) since she was a teenager. Ballet, tap, contemporary and jazz. Crazy backstage especially with the kinder kids and costume changes! 😅

[@Mytwistedvoices]

Just came from Explorer of the seas. The shows are exciting! Dance, theater, ball room and ice! This couple had an amazing areal act. They also had a magic show as well. Exciting!

[@kvom01]

This video is the most interesting one you've done in my opinion. 😁

[@gessyca7754]

I saw in the air the WEEK after you left the ship and even though I was SO bummed i didn't get to see you preform after following you on tiktok for so long -- BUT the show was REALLY good and im happy I got to see it. Liberty of the Seas In the Air if anyone is wondering!! :D

[@wanderlustalley]

Aw man!! Well I’m glad you still enjoyed 🤗❤️✨

[@SupaEMT134]

Best. Channel. Ever.

[@kevinhilbrunner3439]

Great video to show all the preparation and work getting ready for the shows. Hope your back gets better soon....

[@Calebs_Aviation]

Great video Alley! Hope you’re feeling better now and able to do this work again soon! 😃 Looks so fun! I loved the video! Especially Saturday Night Fever! 😅 Cheers 🥂 what a great video and what a cool ship too! I cannot wait to take a cruise someday! 😃 Also that perfume price is so crazy expensive WAY TOO MUCH, thanks but I’d rather stink 🤢 🤪 Cheers 🥂 What an EXCELLENT VIDEO also when you are fully recovered will you go back to cruise ships or Disney or where?? 🤔

[@ericmanny2190]

Yup, saw that show on the ship.....great job.....I remember your part....

[@alisonleigh100]

Your dance skills are so amazing and beautiful!

[@LordToogood]

You have nerves of steel doing those aerial things. Additional Kudos points for that. Im guessing you don't mind heights.

[@1200kevin1]

Excellent video. Glad to hear that your back is doing better. Enjoy your time in Japan.

[@shaunblevins3303]

Wow, Y’all are Truly Amazing. Calling you all Performers is an Understatement, I would have to call each and everyone of you Artist. Everyone can Perform but not everyone can Perform at that Elite Level and for the one that can Perform at that elite Level are Extremely Talented. I really hope this makes sense, Lol. It’s been an extremely long day.

You must have previous video editing knowledge? Or did you somehow learn how to do all this while working on a ship?!

Pull ups woooooooo!! 💪💪💪🤩 I’m sending healing back thoughts too

[@quailhunter9343]

Hopefully you are getting better and can maybe go back to the ship if you wish. Awesome as always

great to see you back on the ships doing what you love doing

I really hope the cruise ship had a good insurance for the dancers, if it's a "very dangerous job", like you said! ❤️

Thats incredible, thats for sharing and showing us. Wish I could had seen you on this ship and see you in the show. Hope you are recovering well and the bulge disk is not giving you too much trouble. I do have a question, how has it been adjusted to life back on land, and have you gotten land sickness yet? Well thank you, you are amazing.

They need makeup because the bright lights create a washed-out appearance. Makeup takes care of that.

Are you back working in the ship? Has your spinal injury recovered?

Looking at the aerial snips, I can well understand why you ended up with back problems. I'm trying not to think that this is a cruise line liability issue, but...
