Happy to report that Princess has offered me a port lecture position on the Island Princess in the Mediterranean. Will be happy to be back in Europe.
My role on board is as a Port Lecturer. I will have to provide a lecture about each port and answer questions at the end. My previous role as a Destination Expert was a bit different. Just happy to be working again with Princess.
Are you or someone you know sailing into Antigua on a cruise? Check out my Port Lecture that I presented in February 2019 as Destination Expert on Royal Princess.
If you or anyone you know is travelling to Barbados on a cruise have them take a look at my port presentation. This video was recorded in February 2019.
I am just now getting around to putting up my port lectures from my role as Destination Expert on the Royal Princess. I will make sure that they are easily found via the search function. Note not all the lectures will be going up, but I will try to put up most. Here is the first one - Trinidad and Tobago. This lecture was actually recorded in Princess Live prior to the cruise as we had four port stops in a row and we were not able to schedule a live presentation. I must apologize my voice is very raspy. I got quite sick and even lost my voice and it was just coming back when I recorded this lecture. The show must go they say. So if you or someone you know is going to Trinidad share this post for them so they can check it out.
After turning down the Sky Princess for the Baltic, I waited patiently hoping I might get offered one of the two ships that was sailing to South America. But as August came to a close, I knew it was probably not going to happen. I then started getting my name out and applying to other lines as a Port Lecturer and even as an Enrichment Lecturer. Today I am happy to announce that I was offered a position as a Port Lecturer on Celebrity Eclipse! It is a 15 day cruise from Santiago (San Antonio) to San Diego.
We are both ecstatic and excited. Neither of us has sailed Celebrity but we have always wanted to. We are visiting ports we have travelled to numerous times and only three ports that I have to compose a new lecture for, although I have lots of material on them. Stay tuned, as I will report here when I get offered something else. My other question is, should I join the Cruise Critic Roll Call and introduce myself as the Port Lecturer? Bernie thinks I should and I am not sure - don't want to overstep, but want to build a following too. Thanks for all the support.
