Shiplife

Now that I have been aboard Seabourn Pride for 15 days, I am finally starting to get the hang of it. I moved the cabin a third time now (and hopefully for the last time) and live together with a German colleague from Hamburg. It's quite allright:)
What I have learned over the past two weeks is that one should not ask any questions or try to think more than the supervisor. It is not appreciated;)
Furthermore, as in almost any F&B operation it is vital to become friends with the chefs or room service. Tonight the room service guys left us a pizza in the room and the chefs gave us ice cream. So quite a nice after-work meal. 
The last days were rather unspectacular in terms of shore-leave. Messina was dirty, Corfu I had to man the ship while in port. Today we were in Sorrent which was beautiful, but the time was too limited to see all the nice things, such as Pompeij. After a day at sea tomorrow, we will advance to Genoa, Nice and Barcelona. Can't wait to see these places!!

That's it so far, pictures will be up within the next days! :)

ah long story. first i was in a contractors cabin which is not meant for crew, but only people who stay for only 2 weeks to work. then i moved to a normal cabin where a spot freed up. 3 days letter, me and my cabin mate were booted out of that cabin so they could move girls in there... now it seems like i'll stay in the new one:) at least i got a name on the door now^^
