🌊 This is how you slow down without standing still.
Link to cruise quotes at the bottom of post.
I’m not chasing luxury.
I’m chasing motion, rhythm, and peace.
In 2026, I’m heading out on two side-to-side 14-day cruises—both out of Galveston.
No flights. No airports. No packing and repacking.
Just 28 days, 2 cruises, 1 suitcase, and zero chaos.

Why I Cruise
The ship moves while I rest.
I wake up somewhere new—and I’m already in the moment.
I’m not asking “are we there yet?”
Because I’m living it—already there.
This isn’t just a vacation.
It’s 28 days with:
No grocery shopping
No cooking
No dishes
No traffic
No dragging luggage
No airport meltdowns
The luxury? It’s a perk.
But the real win is flow, freedom, and peace.
This is why I cruise.
And this is just the beginning.
🚢 These are the exact two itineraries I’m sailing.
Cruise 1: Jan 18, 2026 – Carnival Dream
Cruise 2: Feb 2, 2026 – Carnival Legend
