Imagine spending nine months aboard a luxurious cruise ship, exploring all seven continents and visiting the wonders of the world. For Angie Linderman, this dream is a reality as she embarks on the 'Ultimate World Cruise' with Royal Caribbean's Serenade of the Seas.
Starting and ending in Miami, Angie will be away from home for an astonishing 247 nights, journeying through over 60 countries. Sharing her experiences on TikTok, she has captivated her 175,000 followers with insights into life at sea and how she prepares for such an extensive trip.
Angie has mastered the art of packing for her mega expedition, showcasing her organized cabin space. From toiletries to clothing, she has cleverly utilized every inch, even employing a door organizer to maximize storage. "On the bathroom door, I've got extra toiletries, miscellaneous items like band-aids, masks, and lotions," she explains in her videos.
Her preparations extend beyond essentials; Angie has packed festive items for Christmas, including gifts and decorations. She emphasizes the importance of staying organized, with her cabin featuring a journal, a photo printer, and even snacks for the journey.
Despite the glamour of cruise life, Angie faces challenges like cancelled ports and unexpected delays. A recent incident saw her evacuated from a Disneyland attraction, reminding viewers that adventure can come with its hurdles.
Angie's journey is fueled by a profound motivation. With the BRCA2 gene, which increases her risk of cancer, and a family history of the disease, she underwent a preventative double mastectomy in January 2023. Her philosophy is clear: "It's time to do all the things, visit all the places, and live now." Her vibrant videos showcase her adventures across Asia, Australia, South America, and beyond, inspiring many to embrace life and explore the world.
