Kit and I have heard this many times: the contention that someone is “too old” to live on a ship traveling the entire world — or even to travel at all.

Video Tours of Our Ship Food Service
Want to see what we eat on the Odyssey? It’s all here in videos from two of our friends onboard from the Youtube channel Living Life on a Cruise.
Tell Your Friends
Sometimes the “places where nobody goes” are the best ones to visit.
The Ethics Of Helping
When we left Colorado I thought our volunteering days were over. Man, was I wrong.
Melbourne
New Zealand and Australia were definitely part of my Bucket List, and This is True readers were a big part of making Melbourne special.
Polishing Up On History
During my first visit to Edinburgh, Scotland, I visited the Royal Yacht Britannia. It was my first time on a a ship of that class.
One Year In: Life On The Odyssey
September 30 marks one year since we sailed away from Belfast, finally starting our Residential Cruising journey that we set into motion in May of 2023.
Our Talented Performers
I’m often asked if we have entertainment onboard, “like a regular cruise ship.” Indeed so. They vary in their quality, right up to absolutely superb.
The Light at Night
I’ve talked about “community” and the talented people on board our ship from several different angles. This one is a very different angle.

It’s true that “the media” has long been interested in the Residential Cruising concept, even if I did have to kick them to look at the bigger picture.
Jumping Ship for a Bit
We are on our way back to the ship after 15 days ashore. The “why” is an example of one of the options for how to do routine medical care when you live a Residential Cruising life.
The Tobago Surprise
The Republic of Trinidad and Tobago is an island nation I’ve long known of since learning about the West Indies. I learned a bit more because our ship’s Chief Purser, Alex, grew up there, and still lives there.
The Mystery of the Traveling Shoes
A resident Kit and I are friends with keeps finding shoes as she travels from city to city (including long before she got aboard our ship). That’s right, shoes, and definitely not usually broken-down discards.
