Cruise crew member exposes the ‘dark side’ of working as staff on a cruise holiday

“But its dark side is very heavy and difficult to cope with, it’s such a heavy homesickness covered with a smile.

“Everything is so fast paced, personal life is mixed with work, you don’t really have privacy but you feel so alone.

“When you feel close to someone then he/she is going home, or it’s you who is going home and alcohol is kind of a lifestyle.

“Being a crew member is something I don’t regret, it’s one of the best experiences of my life, but also gave me one of the saddest moments ever.”
