      To be fair, 2.5k a month is what some people spend on rent+food+utilities. Assuming all food onboard is paid for, it’s sounds like an ok deal for someone who actually wants to temporarily live on a cruise ship and has the income/savings to pay for all of it upfront.

          It does kinda sound like a fun way to spend 3 years, but it will probably suck. It’s not going to be a good room. You’re gonna get sick no matter what you do. And unless you actually have money leftover, you’re not going to be doing much in the ports. Also, you’ve got no storage for 3 years of souvenirs.

          Oh and if you miss the boat, you’d have to fly to the next port to get back on.
