A cruise can be many things:
- A chance to relax
- A chance to party
- Time spent with people you love
- A way to meet new friends who also love travel
- A chance to (briefly) see new places
- Time to fall in love with the ocean
- A way to try new foods or drinks
- An opportunity to disconnect (if you want to)
- A way to learn new skills or hobbies
- A break from normal life/responsibilities (including making your bed)
Whatever makes you happy!
