I have been pretty busy the last couple of weeks since summer season has started and we have more and more kids/teens each cruise. The ports are still the same since we started the 7 day cruises. We have a Western Mediterranean run which includes the ports Genoa (Italy), Villefranche or Toulon (France), Barcelona (Spain), Palma de Mallorca (Spain), Cagliari (Sardines, Italy), and back to Civitavecchia (Italy). The Eastern Mediterranean run includes the following ports: Messina (Sicily, Italy), Kusadasi (Turkey, where we are today), Piraeus/Athens (Greece), Heraklion (Crete, Greece), and once again back to Civitavecchia. So you can see that we are going to really nice places and I really am enjoying everything I see.
Also, the team is changing once again because my coworker Sergio left a couple days ago as well as another girl from the team I was good friends with. I was really upset about saying goodbye to these nice people that I have spent so much time with over the last three months and that's definitely one thing I don't like about ship life. You meet great people and spend a lot of time with them in only a few months and then you have to part and you'll never know if you'll see each other again. Not very satisfying!
Besides that I'm still enjoying my work. I feel comfortable enough now to run all the activities with los of people as well as challenged to deal with all sorts of different nationalities and backgrounds. All in all this is really a great job and an awesome opportunity for me to combine all my interests and hobbies. I feel greatful and blessed to be able to travel the world, bringing my home to wherever I'm going, meeting new people, speaking different languages, and enjoying God's beautiful creation.
Sorry about not putting up any new pictures but the internet connection really sucks right now so I will have to do this some time later. Have a great week and hope to hear back from some of you :-)
