A 24-year-old shares their experience of going on a cruise and dispels the perception that it is only for older people.
Be honest. When you think of a cruise, you think of travellers of an older generation, maybe even retirees. A holiday more suited to a young family might also come to mind. You probably don’t think of a cruise ship filled with people in their 20s. As a 24-year-old I’d never seriously thought about going on a cruise, but had always been interested about what actually happens on one.
While in there I often forgot I was on a ship and not at some day spa on land. The heated chaise lounges were certainly my favourite part of the Thermal Suites. I would take my book or my headphones and just lie on the hot tiles, slowly drifting asleep. While I really did enjoy the Thermal Suite, access does come at an additional cost and I’m not quite sure it’s worth it. There’s plenty of other spots on the ship to relax including the aforementioned Solarium, as well as multiple Whirl Pools .

Tyson vs Paul: A Clash of GenerationsBoxing purists may say these bouts cheapen the sport, but in a world where content is king, they will only become more common. On 20 July, broadcast live on Netflix, my first thought was: is this a joke? But I quickly realised that, like much of contemporary life, it was too stupid to be a joke, and so must be real. My second thought was: wouldn’t it be great to see Tyson – a former heavyweight champion – tenderise Paul’s body with some hooks, duck, then unleash the most savage-looking uppercut you’ve seen on his jaw? Maybe Iron Mike could even bite his ear off as well, just for old times’ sake. Unfortunately for me and other misty-eyed boxing fans, Tyson will be 58 by the time the fight comes around, so that’s probably not going to happen. What is probably going to happen is that Paul will box at a range that’s too far for his opponent to reach until the old man he’s facing gets tired, then he’ll either knock him out or the match will be declared a draw
