Happy New Dream!

Kalman from Fascination (momentarily)

Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year guys! Too bad our teamblog is such a deserted place... anyway I decided to post some updates about me; and of course to wish u happy holidays.

It is quite surprising but I'm still with Carnival. :) Believe me, I did everything that's inappropriate and/or prohibited at the company (including sleeping with a guest ;)) and still I'm here... But not for so long on Carnival Fuckin' Fascination - in three days I'm gonna join Carnival Dream's staff! The flagship of the fleet that's two times bigger in size and in crew number than this one (the Photo Department itself counts 26 souls). And her destinations, OMG! I came here not for money but for adventure and seeing the world. Yet on Fascination I saw only three ports of this world, and two of them I was aready familiar with from the Imagination-era. Dream has eight exciting new ports including St.Thomas and St.Maarten, my favourites! (Please guys, if any of u sail to Cozumel, Costa Maya, Belize, Roatan Island, Nassau, St.Thomas, St.Maarten or Port Canaveral, or if u saw Carnival Dream on your regular visits in some ports, leave a comment - maybe we can meet somewhere soon.)

The amazing new ship is one thing, but the real benefit of this transfer is leaving this "team". Oh, bouys, the Fascination Photo Team is a huuuuuuge piece of shit. May any of u in the future offered a transfer here, reject it right away without thinking. Jealousy, betrayal, pettiness; the highlights of this bunch of morons. I hated them, they hated me, so that's a win-win situation now (of course I won a little bit more ;)).

Other than that there's not much to say. I'm counting the days left of my first and last contract with Carnival. Just like Zsolt I'm not planning either to ever return. "Been there, done that" - now I know it's not something for me. I'm enjoying my time as much as I can, hanging out in the crew bar every night, going to shore tours, jetskiing, diving; I'm tryin to pack these few months with lasting experiences like it was no tomorrow.

And to be honest, knowing you guys was the most precious gift I get from Carnival. That three weeks we spent together on Imagination is something I will never forget. (That's why I feel so sorry for negligene of the blog.) PLEASE! WRITE! MORE!

Take care - I report from Dream soon.
