Hi, I’m Danny, and cruises are my favorite obsession.

Growing up in Vancouver, I would often see cruise ships sailing past Stanley Park and wonder what it would be like to be on one of them.

After university, a group of friends and I booked our first cruise on Royal Caribbean’s Oasis of the Seas. That trip turned cruising from something I was curious about into something I genuinely loved.

Since then, cruises have become a pretty big part of my life. Anyone who knows me knows how much I like them. I cruise whenever I get the chance, I’m always keeping up with new ships and itineraries, and I’m usually the person friends or coworkers come to when they’re thinking about trying a cruise.

Over the years, I’ve brought friends, coworkers, and family members along on trips, helped people choose their first cruise, compared ships and cabins with them, and answered more cruise questions than I can count. What started as something I loved doing for myself naturally became something I loved sharing with other people.

I’ve now sailed with Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, Celebrity, Virgin Voyages, and Princess, across the Caribbean, the Pacific Coast, Mexico, and Europe. Every trip has given me a better understanding of how different cruise lines and ships can be, and how important it is to match someone with the right experience rather than simply recommend the cruise I would choose for myself.

At some point, helping people with cruises stopped feeling like something I was just doing for friends and became something I wanted to do for more people.

Now I get to do what I love: matching people with the right ship, cabin, and season, handling the details, and helping them chase that same feeling I had watching those ships pass by Stanley Park.
