    I did SAS almost 10 years ago in 2010 (back when it was on the MV Explorer) as a neuroscience major in college! Your move-in vlog popped up on my recommended page and I've been reliving the SAS life through your videos. My voyage went to Croatia and Morocco too, two of my favorite countries! Can't wait to get back on the ship someday as a lifelong learner, but in the meantime living vicariously through some vlogs. :)
