Personal Triumphs and Cruising.
Phew. This is an emotional story for me. It's causing me grief just trying to write about it. Ok, deep breath, here goes... For more than a decade I've been really sick. Like frequent flier miles at the ER sick. Not knowing what it's like to go a day without vomiting sick. Coughing up blood on the regular sick. Doing laps at the ICU sick. You get it. At one point I looked up and I was on an ignorant amount of meds and was over 430lbs. I was in pain. I stopped sleeping. I was miserable, I wanted to die.

Sean and Stef's Norwegian Getaway Haven Trip Day 01: March 18, 2018.
Day 1 of our Seven Day NCL Cruise on the Norwegian Getaway. We show priority check in and embarkation for the Haven, a stateroom tour of our beautiful penthouse Haven suite, muster drill, unpacking with the most amazing ebags and finishing up with a great dinner at the Haven restaurant. Can't wait to getaway on the Getaway!!!
Of the handful of rotating questions that we're asked, this one comes up often:
It seems like you're traveling quite a bit. What's the deal? You dying or something? Did you win the lottery? What's going on? Why now?It's a fair question. Perception can be reality. We've always traveled quite a bit. For the longest time it was to various Disney parks as we were Disney Vacation Club members. I get it though, it looks like we're travelling quite a bit and people want to know how / why so they can do the same.
Stefanie and I love to cruise on new ships. I'm a huge fan of architecture and technology, any time you can combine those with my love for the ocean I'm already booked. Below is a list, in no particular order, of ships that we really want to experience in the next year. Wishful thinking on some, but hey we can dream too. If you're a cruise line and you want us to vlog about your ship, contact us! Our list starts with: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mv7z3_co6kU
