In 2011 I decided to change my life a bit and get out of my comfort zone.
I wanted a change in my life, travel the world and the solution to that was: find a job in a cruise ship 🚢
I joined Steiner training in November of 2011 and at the end of January 2012, they told me that I was going to join the opening spa team of the upcoming new Disney Fantasy!!! 😃
To be honest, at that moment I was not sure if it was a good thing or a bad thing 🤔 I knew about Disney (parks and movies) but I wasn't aware about their boats 😅
Why am I explaining this? Very easy. Disney slogan is: "where dreams come true". And that was what exactly happened to me 🥹
That new boat was built in Germany. We all flew there to set up the spa and get it ready for the crossing (beginning of February 2012).
My big surprise came when the spa manager set up a morning meeting to explain us what was coming.
I couldn't believe it.....She told us that we were going to cross the Atlantic ocean towards New York where it will be the christening of the boat. Arrival date? 27th of February of 2012 (my 31st birthday). My face was like 😳😳😳
So basically, my dream of going to New York, was going to be true to the most unexpected way!!! 😱
Working for Disney, getting paid, not spending a euro towards New York, 0€ costs accomodation in New York and arriving the day of my birthday + some days off where I could tour the city and get tickets to watch win my Knicks team🏀
After this personal experience, YES, I do believe that dreams can come true.
Thank you LIFE/UNIVERSE for such an incredible experience 😊🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
