Resident origins demographics - by Basia

One of my favorite residents is Basia I love her BLOG and she has some great content. I am sharing the work she recently put together on where all the Residents are joining the Ship from. This data reflects the 306 Residents that were signed up, as of the end of August 2024.  VVR just announced once we set sail, we will actually be sold out or rooms! I'm excited to see how the data below changes.  My number one concern when deciding to do this was how I would mesh with the other residents, since I am doing this totally on my own. I can happily say to date, I am very happy with the mix of people and pleasantly surprised at the larger number of solo travelers over couples. The common travel dreams, we all share is our bonding element. The comradery I have already experienced, in our brief trips to the Canaries and Liverpool, has reinforced that I made the right choice for my retirement dreams.

Bosco's Birthday Bash! How convenient that we were in a Port with a Wave Lagoon Pool just minutes away on Bosco's actual birth date, November 3rd.

AUSTRALIA marks our 6th Continent of this trip around the World! I visited Australia & New Zealand for the first time back in 2016, but we didn't make it to Darwin then - so I was excited to see this time.

A lot of people went to dinner in costume, but the full party started after at 8:30 pm with fun and games first, then the dance floor opened outside. I hand sewed our Pebbles & BamBam costumes.
