I came across an article last week titled A Non-cruisers Guide to Cruising and although it is quite short it is very simple and to the point. Perfect I thought considering some can last for a month and are nothing more than an information overload. When I researched information for my first cruise I was…

Cruise Cuisine Photo Blog Part 1
We all love to cruise and we all love the food we eat while we cruise (well most of it!) so it seemed perfect to do a cruise cuisine photo blog! I have noted down as much about each dish as I can remember along with the name of the ship and in which restaurant…
My 2013 Cruising Best Bits
2013 was a year filled with travel for me and looking back I can’t quite believe just how many different places I was lucky enough to visit, how many ships I stepped aboard and everything else awesome in-between that came with it. I thought it would be nice to use today’s blog to look back…
Looking Back At 2013
2013 has been a pretty intense year for cruising, We have had good, bad and just about everything else in-between that you could possibly imagine, but I wanted to pick a few things from the last 12-months of cruising that really stood out to me. The good, the bad and the awesome! These are my…

My Favourite Cruise Ship Photographs
Over the last 6 years I have snapped so many images of cruise ships that I have completely lost count of how many I actually have! Although I can’t remember every single one, there are some I could never forget. I shared my History of Cruising with you in pictures several months ago, but this time…
Cruising On Your Own
Since I started cruising I have enjoyed three solo voyages, but only my last gave me a real taste of what solo cruising is all about. I suppose the fact I am not a typical individual cruiser always becomes a talking point with people and it could be why I can form such quick relationships….
MSC Cruises Allegrissimo Drinks Package
I have had so many people asking me about the drinks packages with MSC Cruises that I decided to do this blog earlier than planned. It is also slightly longer than usual as I took pictures of the pool bar menu for you all! I opted for the Allegrissimo package on my MSC Opera cruise…
MSC Opera Cruise Overview
Yesterday I returned home from a 10-night cruise with MSC Cruises onboard MSC Opera. It was my second cruise with MSC Cruises, but my first sailing with them from Southampton. I have spent the last few days blogging about where we were and what was happening, but I wanted to use today to give one…
