Have you ever been on a waterslide in the middle of the ocean? When we sailed on MSC Virtuosa we did just that! The Safari Aquapark on deck 19 of MSC Virtuosa is a fantastic facility included in the cost of the cruise fare (so no extra charge to use it!), with 3 large waterslides as well as a splash zone and smaller slide for younger guests. Our family loved this Aquapark and we used it as often as we could in our 5 night May half-term cruise. Height restrictions apply to the larger slides, and guests using them also need to get a wrist band from a crew member based in the Aquapark during opening hours (after signing a disclaimer). The Aquapark is right next to the Himalayan Bridge high ropes course, which is also included in the cruise fare and covered by the same wrist band. We've got plenty of MSC Virtuosa content coming up on our channel, plus loads of cruise and travel videos already uploaded, so make sure to subscribe!

When the ocean delivers, it really delivers. When dolphins choose to ride alongside sailboats, it's the most amazing experience. One we never get tired of seeing. Dolphins always make an already amazing sail even more so. This pod of dolphins put on a real show for us. What we find amazing is how they can choose to make their presence known, and then just like that, they're gone! One of the many examples of how the ocean is such a beautiful but vast and wild place. What a privilege to see these incredible mammals and what a way to end the year! We hope you enjoy it! As always, thanks for watching.

After a few years of studying and working hard we decided it was time to make a change. We needed a change that would allow us to spend more time together, give us a better work/life balance, and the freedom to travel. While we still had time on our side, we wanted to use it to live rather than use it to chase money. Learning to sail was the answer. In December 2021 we moved onboard Te Tāiko, a Chico40, and since then we have been so fortunate to explore many of New Zealand’s pest free islands and its beautiful anchorages. With our love of travel and adventure, this lifestyle has enabled us to experience so much more than we could ever have imagined. From new experiences to meeting incredible people along the way, our life has been enriched in so many ways and makes us ever so more appreciative of our environment and the footprint we leave behind. Tāiko is our floating home. She gives us the freedom to go anywhere the wind and weather allows. By living a more minimalistic and sustainable lifestyle, she has provided us with a better work/life balance and has taught us to live and be present more in the moment. Tāiko has also taught us to be more independent and less reliant on services. Some of these experiences have taken us out of our comfort zone many times but as the saying goes, ‘a comfort zone is a wonderful place but nothing grows there’. Our plan is to do blue water cruising. So, over the next year we will be completing some maintenance work on Tāiko and be getting her ready to meet New Zealand’s category 1 requirements to be able to go offshore. In the meantime, follow along with us as we navigate this new lifestyle whilst sharpening our skills exploring New Zealand waters. #boatlife #boat #travelvlog #digitalnomad #lifestyle #sailing #travel
