I live on cruise ships in my 30s and no, I’m not rich and I’m not retired. 🚢 In this video, I share how I ended up living on cruise ships full-time after leaving my high-paying sales job, and why this lifestyle was never actually part of my original plan. Hello and welcome to AbroadThatTravels! I’m a full-time traveler currently living on cruise ships, and this video is a little more personal than my usual travel content. I talk about how this lifestyle happened, what surprised me most, and what living on cruise ships in your 30s really looks like when you don’t fit the typical retirement narrative. I’ll be sharing my travels, honest insights, and real-world tips as we go—especially for anyone curious about alternative lifestyles, digital nomad life, or long-term cruising. If you’re interested in the logistics and how my partner and I afford to live on cruise ships full-time, you can also check out his channel: @CruiseCompCaptain 🚢🎰 Thanks so much for watching and getting to know me a little better. If you have questions about cruising full-time, living on ships, or this lifestyle in general, drop them in the comments, I’m happy to answer. #travelvlog #cruisevlog #cruiselife #fulltimetraveler #digitalnomad #earlyretirement
