It was pretty awesome! We didn't get to spend very much time in the ports (Caribbean), but the ships themselves have a very interesting culture all their own, with many interesting people among both passengers and crew. We'd love to do it again - just need to find a better way to afford it. I'll look into some of your suggestions - thanks! Hi Sean,

We’d love to do it again – just need to find a better way to afford it. I’ll look into some of your suggestions – thanks!

The link should be fixed now, I'm not sure what the issue was. Many of these positions are definitely competitive, but I have to believe that if someone is serious about it, they would find some sort of job on a ship. The type of job I was referring to can definitely be harder to come by, but hopefully it at least spurs some outside the box thinking. If you come up with any more information about it, be sure to let me know! Thanks for the thoughts Karen! The link should be fixed now, I’m not sure what the issue was.

(your link doesn't work though to check out more info on the job!) I've pondered working on a cruise ship many a times, as a way to be paid to travel and be more location independent... Despite the down sides you describe... I've heard that getting a job on cruise ships is incredibly competitive. And I've even checked out The World a bit, and I imagine working there would be almost impossible (as it's the only of it's kind, like you describe. I haven't gotten too far in my research though... I'd love to check out that link, as I've never heard of the job you described. Cheers! Karen Hi Sean,
