What's your bio, solo cruisers?

[JosieCat-MN]

Hi. I will be taking my first solo cruise in October. I went on my first cruise in July which was supposed to be solo until my sister invited herself along :)

 

I am 50. My BF has no interest in cruising. I do go to Vegas a few times a year, and about half of those trips for me are solo, as he doesn't like to go as much.

 

I love solo traveling. I'm perfectly happy with my own company. But the nice thing about a cruise is everyone is SO friendly that it's easy to have a nice conversation with someone.

 

I just splurged and upgrade to a Junior Suite. I had been on the waiting list for a balcony but the final payment date came and went, and nothing opened up. So for a few $100's more than that would have been, I just did it. I'm very excited and looking forward to my October cruise!

Hi JosieCat. Join the Solo Cruiser Roll Call if you wish to share which cruise you are taking in October. Maybe someone else is on the same cruise. Find it in the Solo Cruiser Forum (same forum as this thread)

I'm 48, cruising for the first time in a cabin by myself and divorce. I've been on 16 or 17 cruises while married and can't wait to do my own thing!

Wow! Look at all the babes he collected on that cruise.

Duuude!

 

 

I really wrote to say

thanks for that recent photo of yours, showing all your cruise cards!

That's quite a personal collection you have there! All yours, I presume.

I'm Kefren from Belgium, in my young 20's and have taken 2 cruises so far. I'm kind of an semi-solo traveller, as I like travelling with friends as well. I've cruised with colleagues and did the last cruise on my own. When I am in desperate need of some rest (I always work in the crowds at the airport, so rest is welcome after a busy summer), I like to travel alone. Not alone alone, because I love meeting new people, which is harder when you've got company you know travelling along. I love Holland America for its chill atmosphere and no rush whatsoever. Smaller ships then some of those cities at sea, although I'd love to try them out as well, at some point.

Glad you joined us. We've learned that we are not dependent on a BFF, SO, or spouse to enjoy a cruise.

Do you feel that one line is better than the others are all basically the same ? For you is a ship basically a ship ?

[GTVCRUISER]

All the cruiselines are a little different from each other , it is hard to pick a favorite , but I will have to say RCCL and Celebrity have the best programs for returning passengers.
