Do We Actually Love Cruising? | Steph & Rick Unpacked

Welcome aboard! 🚢 We’re Steph and Rick — a married couple from Edmonton, Alberta, who just discovered cruising and decided to start this channel, Steph & Rick: Unpacked. This summer, we took our very first cruise with Holland America to Alaska… and, spoiler alert: one of us instantly fell in love with cruising, while the other is still figuring it out. Either way, we realized there’s something pretty magical about waking up in a new port, eating way too many desserts, and having your hotel float along with you. In this first video, we: - Introduce who we are (and why we’re filming in the woods 🌲🐿️) - Talk about why cruising surprised us - Share our take on stress-free vacations (yes, even for anxious travelers) - Debate if river cruises count as “real cruises” - Reveal what happens to our three spoiled Yorkies while we’re away 🐾 We’ll be bringing you along on future cruise adventures, RV escapes, and travel moments that are funny, real, and a little quirky. 👉 Stick around, subscribe, and join us as we figure this whole cruising thing out! 💬 Tell us in the comments — what was YOUR first cruise experience? Or are you planning one? 👍 Like this video if you want to see more cruise adventures. 🔔 Subscribe so you don’t miss our Alaska vlogs, ship tours, food reviews, and maybe some RV-in-the-woods silliness.
