A couple weeks ago the moment was finally there: after endless travel adventures around the world in more than 100 countries in 7 years I finally did my first cruise. Obviously super excited I boarded one of those bigger ships in the world: the Crown Princess in Barcelona. On this western Mediterranean cruise I explored in total 6 different ports in 4 different countries. In this blog I will give you tips for a cruise around the med and everything you need to know when you are about to book this trip. Also included is the itinerary of my 7 day Mediterranean cruise and excursion tips.

After almost 7 years traveling and visiting more than 100 countries I finally embarked one of those big ships I had always been willing to go on. My first cruise was a fact!

In Barcelona I went onboard the Crown Princess of Princess Cruises and set sail for a 7-day cruise on the Mediterranean towards Rome. As I was extremely excited and wanted to go in with zero expectations, I did not do any research about a what to expect on a first cruise. For you though I wrote this guide with first time cruise tips so you get an idea of cruise do's and don'ts.

In this blog I will tell you everything about the Ocean Medallion technology you need to know.

After years and years of contemplating taking a cruise holiday or not, last month I finally did it. My first cruise was a fact and I sailed from Barcelona to Rome on the Mediterranean Sea with Princess Cruises. In this blog I will give you an inside in all the activities I did on my trip and give you the best Mediterranean cruise excursions tips.

Three months after my first visit to Venice I already flew back. Yes I love Venice, but this time it had a much bigger meaning than taking a gondola through the canals. Princess Cruises celebrated the first sail away of its brand new cruise ship the Sky Princess and guess who was invited for the Sky Princess inaugural cruise from Trieste to Athens.
