  1. Although you've been on Azalea several times you always seem to find something different.

    I particularly like the atrium and am glad the entertainment is back on since COVID cancelled it.

    The forward salon on Azalea is particularly nice is a shame more people don't use it but as you say probably not many people know about it mind you, most of the time you go in you've got the whole room to yourself only drawback is the shutters must be down at night and many of your travels is at night.

    Your room is just fine it's better than no privacy dorm or capsules at least you've noone above and probably don't hear snorers as much lol.

    Yet again tganks cor taking us n by the way you still cant make a bed right 😂

  2. The ferry looks impressive🚢 It's convenient that you don't have to get out of bed at 4,00 am to get off the ferry😀 Thanks for video😘

  3. Your journey is great for stress relieving when studying for me.

    Usually watch your video when i have free time between classes in my university. Drinking coffee or tea while watching a journey or voyage is a joy i didn't know before haha.

    Thanks for the awesome video and hope for more videos in the future for me to watch lol.

    *A recommendation for people who want to enjoy this in a new way, is watching the video while having jazz playing in the background. Heavenly, i'm telling you. (But if OFF TO JAPAN read this, please do not add music. It's just my personal opinion, it's for my leasure time. I still prefer no added music. Just pure journey is the best)
