> Where are you from and how old are you?

 I am a 28-year-old man from India.

> How did you start working on cruise ships and what is your job on board?

 I started working on ships because most of my uncles were sailors, although they worked on cargo ships. During every vacation, they would visit me and tell stories about different places around the world. Since I was about eight years old, I felt that I would like to work on a ship, even though I did not know how challenging it would be.

Before joining cruise ships, I worked on land in various fields. One day, I attended an event where I was responsible for managing the inventory of bottles. There, I saw a bartender making cocktails and entertaining people, and it looked like a lot of fun. That experience inspired me to learn how to make cocktails, and eventually, I applied for a job on a cruise ship. I started working on board in 2018, and it felt like the sea had always been calling me.

> How do you manage to maintain such a great body while living and working on a ship?

Before joining cruise life, I always had a passion for fitness and health. I started working out when I was 16 years old and have always been very conscious about my body, health, and shape.When I first joined the ship, during the first two months, I struggled to maintain my routine because of the schedule and the food, which did not suit me. I noticed that I was losing weight, and one day after finishing my shift at 3 a.m., I felt very emotional and even cried. After that, I decided to take control, and since then, I have worked out for one hour every day.

> Are you single or married? And are you into women, men, or both?

I am single and interested in women.

> How is the dating or flirting scene on board? Do you have any funny or memorable story about it?

I have dated many girls from Latin America, but I would say the best experience I had, and the one where I truly fell in love, was with a Brazilian girl.

On board, people usually do not openly say that someone is their girlfriend, because she is not just visiting your cabin. The funny part is that everyone seems to know what is going on, except you. You might think someone is your girlfriend, but in reality, she could also be someone else’s girlfriend.
