I've been traveling by cargo ship as a single female since I was 20. Years later I even took my two small children on one when they and I moved to France. Out of all the things in the world I've done, it is my favorite thing to do. The passengers are far more interesting than on cruise ships and the same applies to the crew. You learn what it's like to live in their countries and make friends for life. It gives you the personal space to think creatively, to slow down and become a lot closer to the world around you. If I could, I'd live on one!
that was just to good! haha BTW I was looking for the link about booking a cargo ship trip, would u happen to know what video of yours I should watch to get that info?? I'm guessing its been a while ago.. (no rush though)
About the stars at night; we had full darken ship on an aircraft carrier when we were 650 miles from the nearest land once and I was stuck up on the flight deck since we were not allowed to use our flashlights. We couldn't even see to move. Me and a buddy were on the wing of one of our planes just looking at the stars. We were there in absolutely no light whatsoever for almost 50 minutes. He's right, you can't describe it. If you've ever heard someone laugh at how humans used to worship the sky you can bet they never saw a real night sky before. It's intense, some would call it magical, and very humbling. It doesn't matter who you are you aren't as great as that sight. Great video!
I did a solo trip from LA to New Zealand and your ship was a lot nicer than mine, however, the crew was really cool and the Capt was very nice too...As a girl, I had no problems at all and felt very safe. The guy that was supposed to be the ship medical guy drank a lot, lolol he was cool too. And the night sky was amazing, even saw the milky way.
Wow. So happy to have a first hand video of the life of a seafarer. Theres a huge market for these informational videos, and I'm proud to see someone creating and sharing them. Keep it up man.
Another reason, for me, to enjoy a cargo ship ride, I can practice my celestial navigation skills with my sextant and receive instant verification from the ship's GPS. In regards to being denied entry to a country, just return to the ship if that particular country is not your planned end of trip. Also, I see you are on a car carrier. What was approximate time you spent in port loading/ unloading vehicles. M
Hey, i'm from sweden :) loving these videos, as i said somewhere else on a comment, so much fun seing how you experience it from your point of view. far more glamorous than its working there on such ships lol :D tho i been in the passenger ships a lot lately, im going back on the cargo ship in about two weeks. and has been on a few of those ships in my life. not this big tho. and actually never had passengers with us, i think we reffer to it as paying crew but, never had it when i worked :)
hey there! You have an inside cabin, right? Seasickness CAN be helped a bit if you can SEE outside, better if you can breathe a little fresh air ...and sit facing the direction the ship is going, so you are riding frontwards...wishing you ginger ale, saltines and good luck...Loved the night sky picture, btw! safe travels, xo!
4:43 You should see the starry night at 4500m above sea level. I trekked to Annapurna Base Camp in Nepal this summer and I can't remember ever seeing the night sky as starry as that.
Dude I was in the navy for 5 years and I find this kinda humorous. My last deployment we were underway for 7 months and only had port calls in Haifa Israel 3 times. And there were no women on the ship at that time.Try that for fun
Regarding women on the ships, at least in Russia it was always a bad luck sign if you took a woman on board :) I guess it was pretty much the same around all European cultures till 20th century.
Women were forbidden to enter submarines until after ww2. It wasnt forbidden by the governement tho, but the sailors would not let any women come close
Here's a question I need to ask if you go from port to port do you have to declare anything if you bring it aboard ship like cigars cigarettes whiskey or anything in general as an American I was always wondered that question myself when I bring across the state Border Lines do we have to declare it I heard that you can declare if you'd like but cigars you have to declare
I remember your first video *not really remembered but yea*...and only have a few subscribers..i subscribed you on that time because for some reason *i barely remembered it too*...and now look at you...16k subscribers...you are doing great man...just keep doing it
Can you buy cargo ship passage with cryto-currency? How are cryto-currency effecting international travel? And What travel agencies handle this and pre approval? Its good information and when USA collapses may be only way to reach civilization. Northern Mariana Islands? Is the earth flat?...really
those are genraly car ships but have been repurposed for lumber for japan after there nasional desaster damaged some of the ships but it was trying to rebuild after the big distaster
On Royal Caribbean cruise ships you can see amazing skies as most of their ships allow people access to heli-pad at the bow, and late at night all the lights are off in front of the bridge so as to not interfere with navigation.
totally man you just said that a few times in the video it just stuck in my head. i like you're videos came across them a while ago i would have never thought you could travel by cargo ship sounds like a interesting holiday do you know meany company's in Europe that do this? safe travels and greetings from Scotland
They don't give a damn in France either when it comes to pass port control. Been through there several times when entering the EU and its a pain trying to explain to security from another EU country ( within the Schengen Zone ) when one goes to depart and there is no entry stamp on ones passport. So much for having one of theses fancy digital US passports......
The photos of the stars looked awesome, it would be beautiful to see in real life, with the milky way and all, really dope. Stay safe u looked like u were swaying a lot during the video. I hope u don't get seasick, that would be terrible.
respected sir, could u tell me about chinas toys purchasing ship to india. i just got a job offer from indian ship which purchaise chinees toys repacking section. they calling it cargo ship ( globel) something like that... did u tell me about is that true some cargo ship going to purchaise chinees toys to india and is that possible they said repacking center in cargo ships??
lagoon-inside.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/World-piracy-map.jpg Pirate attack but you only know about Somalia pirates because cruise line pays a lot of money to mask the attacks, also Israel cargo ships and Russian cargo ships have 2-4 military specialists on ships.In 2013 some pirates got on an Israel cargo ship and there where 8 Israel special forces guys and killed all the pirates, i don't need to tell you the details you can imagine.The Somalia coast in a little tricky because if pirates attack,the ships are sending SOS to Dubai,because Somalia dont have central goverment,and the rescue team need 6-8 hours to come in real life.Great video by the way!
Haha, hey man. Sorry, that was a quote from the show Lost. You look like Sayid. Anyway, saw you are from Israel. I love that country and the people. It is my favourite place on earth. Love the vids. Cheers.

Put him in the bed with the Captains daughter!
I read this singing 🌊
I am definitely doing this just to watch stars
We encountered pirates in the Mediterranean. They pretended to be refugees stranded at sea to trick us to bring them on board.
Your humour sure does help in dealing with the vicissitudes of cargo ship travel
Another reason, for me, to enjoy a cargo ship ride, I can practice my celestial navigation skills with my sextant and receive instant verification from the ship's GPS.
In regards to being denied entry to a country, just return to the ship if that particular country is not your planned end of trip.
Also, I see you are on a car carrier. What was approximate time you spent in port loading/ unloading vehicles. M
Thx Travel clat

+mithaweed yes we do! ❤️ much love my friend
I’m currently a cadet at a maritime academy, there are women but they’re rare, probably just 10% to 90% male, and that’s officers, not crew.
What kind of documents do you take with you. What would you choose, the trans siberian express or cargo ship.
4:43 You should see the starry night at 4500m above sea level. I trekked to Annapurna Base Camp in Nepal this summer and I can't remember ever seeing the night sky as starry as that.
+Wise Fool sounds amazing
Oh! CargoShip Boy! The more I hear you talking about this, the more I want to try...
2:57, mate, try to take control of a ship with a pair of scissors lol
yup
How do the immigration took place, specially on canadian ports..what are the various checks??
Dude I was in the navy for 5 years and I find this kinda humorous. My last deployment we were underway for 7 months and only had port calls in Haifa Israel 3 times. And there were no women on the ship at that time.Try that for fun
+K E damn that's nutssss

+Andrei Verner 😂😂😂 what’s the hell
Women were forbidden to enter submarines until after ww2. It wasnt forbidden by the governement tho, but the sailors would not let any women come close
It's amazing the sphere-earthers are still asking this question.
If you were a woman, would you feel safe travelling on cargo ships?
9:43 lol 😂😂
tell me you were kidding that you think the earth is flat....lol
+Rhonda Jones no it is totally flat Rhonda

+Ikilleditwithfire I assure you! And this is coming from a person who's been on a few cruises before. It does not compare to a cargo ship!
Dear Clatt i,m interested to visit on cargo ship
