Hahaha! Report that as well in your post!

I most certainly would and will! I’d probably have to break down and pay for the Internet connection though, both to get work done and to satisfy my Twitter addiction 🙂

If you do, you have to share your experience here! 😀
The thing that I wish to have on a cruise ship is a cheap internet access. The price is killing there, so we never used the internet on board. We sometimes found free WiFi in random public places when we were on the land, but we preferred not to be bothered by that too much since the time on the land are short typically.

There are many ways to backpack and see the world, and if you can get a cheap hotel over a hostel why not? There are deals in every sector of travel – it’s best to take advantage of them 🙂 Enjoyed your post on the transatlantic, it’s something I’ve always wanted to do. Having crossed the Atlantic many times via plane I’d really like to take the scenic route 🙂

I also did transatlantic cruise ship from Florida to Barcelona. Why? It was the same cost with flying! Why not choosing cruise that gave us extra places to visits in between. I remember coming to fancy dinners where other people were wearing suits and cocktail dresses, I was wearing my dark green baggy cargo pants, or my modest summer dress at most. That’s with our backpacks 🙂

So yeah, we love backpacking and light traveling because it is convenient and cheap. If we find cheaper deal than typical backpacker’s choice, we take it!
