Hi, friends! I love to make lifestyle RU-vid videos, documenting my travels near and far! Above all, I enjoy sharing my life with whoever has the desire to stick around and follow along. Let's be friends and create a community of fun and happy memories along the way! Love, Risa :)
Featuring you & Alex with you happy to be having Alex be your Partner in front of your hands & nose while you’re the happy to be having Alex be your Partner Girl with your hands & nose!
Great video! One thing I like is you let all emotions out. Too many times people show the good times on these things. You showed all the emotions that we go through and it doesn't just disappear on vacation!! I hope you have continued to grow since this! Also, cozumel paradise beach resort is the best 🎉 great authentic food, ocean and good times. It's not overboard at all. Thanks for this wonderful video!!
Thank you for the encouraging words! I definitely want to continue to be my authentic self in future vlogs. I am naturally a very open and honest person and wear my heart on my sleeve! It makes me so happy that I am able to be myself and continue to be real here on my channel 😊
Taking our first cruise with Royal (been only on DCL before) and I'm super excited for this. Ironically our first sailing with RC is going to be on Indy. Thank you for making me even more excited!
Loosing your BF ,I say oh that’s ok, but when you you say you loose your luggage for awhile, that break my heart, someday everything will be alright for you..
Don't give up. You will find someone special because you are special , coming from a man that has seen a lot of life. I'm a dad I know it's feels sad but it does take take time . May God give you strength and peace, joy and happiness that nobody can take away.
@@risaanasmiles oh I can relate unfortunately! Lol ended a 7 year relationship whilst on a 13 night cruise last year ! Was a nightmare , but I’ve lived to sail another day lol . Good luck with everything ☺️
@@coleenbrennen487 Oh my goodness!! That’s an extremely difficult situation to have gone through 🫣 But I love that line, “I lived to sail another day!” I will definitely be using that one in my next cruise vlogs!! 😂 Hope you are doing well Coleen! 😊
Hello Jonathan, thank you so much for reaching out. I am actually doing so much better these days. Thankfully, I have been able to process all these feelings and I am in a very good spot now :)
I don’t know how I got onto this video but I’m glad I did cause u was crying and u said u have regrets!!! Baby have no regrets take everything as a lesson learned and know ur worth!!! I’ve been there done that there is no regrets it’s lesson learned
Hello Jo-Ann! I am so glad that you stumbled upon my video! I appreciate the reminder and I recently have been able to get past all these raw emotions and see my situation for what it is. And you are SO RIGHT, it was all just a very hard lesson learned! I appreciate the support and hope you stick around for more adventures!
Love these videos! My husband and I watch you and our hearts go out to you for what you’re going through and say wow she’s a strong woman to show her emotion like that! ❤
Thank you so much for the sentiment Brittany! I am so grateful for viewers like you both! But, I am so happy to say that I have since had MUCH BRIGHTER days and a lot less tears! Hoping to share happier times very soon!
It's ok to cry sometimes! lol. Thankfully, these tears are a thing of the PAST. So glad you are finding value in these videos regardless of the chaos! haha
Was just in costa maya with my family and we spent the entire day there. Didn’t have to pay anything to use pool(s)… we visited both. It was definitely worth it!!! We had a blast!!! By the way, the dolphin and bird exhibits were extra. On another note, as an fyi… please stop blaming yourself and always remember that when GOD closes one door, HE always has something better in replacement/store! Remember, you are wonderfully made and deserve the best!!! It will come!
Hello Della! That is all such helpful information to know! I assumed all the extra activities were extra, but it's nice to know the pool areas were FREE to enjoy! So glad you enjoyed your time there :) And thank you so much for the positive words of encouragement. I am truly blessed to have such caring viewers like you! Thankfully, I have since gotten past all of my big strong emotions and I am now in a VERY HAPPY place in my journey :)
Amazing and informative video. You're an amazing person and soon things will get better for you as you go thru the healing process. You got this. Wish you the best. God bless you. And keep the amazing work. You deserve better and I know you'll find happiness. Keep being strong. Have an amazing evening.
We LOVE how brave you were going on this cruise. We wanted to send you a virtual hug during parts of this video. On a happier note, we need to visit Costa Maya because all these pools next to the ports look so fun! Stay strong friend! :)
Thank you so much, friends! Thankfully, these emotions have since passed and I am doing so much better :) And agreed! The Costa Maya port was definitely worth getting off for!
I just randomly found your channel and watched this video and I subscribed. I admire your strength. Going on this cruise alone and making this video couldn't have been easy. I look forward to following your adventures.
I very rarely post comments on videos but I had to post a comment here. You are such an inspiring and uplifting young lady. I’m proud of you going through with your solo vacation after your life changes. Stay strong and positive and I wish you the best future to come.
You're gorgeous inside and out! Girl, feel those feelings! No matter how strong they are, you deserve to be yourself and love yourself! I just started watching you like literally this last week because I'm thinking of taking my 3 almost 4 year old on her first cruise this year. Lol But I'm a tingle mom and have been since I became a mom almost 4 years ago. You are worthy and deserve the world! And if you burst into tears well that's nobody else's business but yours! Sending love from Lizz and Maddie, my 3 almost 4 year old daughter
Hello! Thank you so much for following along! I am so extremely grateful for all your kind words. This was definitely a tough time for me, but I am so thankful to be past the “storm” so to say. I hope you and your daughter have so much fun on your upcoming cruise! She is so lucky to have you to gift her such great experiences!
OMG BUT AFTER THE 3 MIN MARK!! I AM SO SORRY. I JUST WANT TO HUG YOU AND SERVE A GLASS OF WINE AND WATCH A MOVIE UNDER A FORT! I AM SO SORRY HUNNY!! BEING SO RAW AND LET IT OUT!!! IT CAN BE SO THERAPUTIC!
You are SO SWEET! Thank you for your kindness and genuine empathy. But I am so thankful to be past all of those big emotions and in such a better place now 😊
@@GabyClayton-ll6ue No ma'am. I am not part of the Influencer Program so I would not get any credit if you used my link. But I'll try to find the link for you either way! But thanks so much for asking! That was very considerate of you :)
I’m so sorry you’re going through your separation! I appreciate that you are still trying your best with the situation! There’s strength in crying it out when you need to and just know it will be okay! Love the video ❤
I’m sorry it’s so hard right now. Keep going one day at a time, love yourself, eat and stay hydrated and soon you’ll be looking back on this and seeing how much has changed and how much you’ve grown. My heart aches for you, I think it’s great you left some of your vulnerability in the videos. You got this!!
You got this. Have faith and you'll see that things happen for a reason. You deserve much better. And I know things will get better for you. Thanks for the amazing video. Keep up the good work. Best wonder of the seas videos. Have an amazing day.
I happen by accident on your page glad I did! Great vids (I watched pt 1 first)! You were meant to talk to that couple! Focus on yourself and the rest will follow. Can't wait to watch the rest of your videos!
