Nomad Cruise


Welcome to Nomad Cruise. But wait, do you know what Nomad Cruise is?
Nomad cruise is best described as an all-inclusive workation aboard a cruise liner. In our case that was the Zenith from Pullmantur. During your stay on the ship there are multiple workshops and conferences that you can get involved in. Here you can learn new skills, gain new ideas and network with a global community of entrepreneurs all in one place. There is a great community on board to discuss future ventures and even partner up with possibly making friends for life.

There were a wide variety of workshops on-board that aim to aid an entrepreneurial lifestyle. Some of these included:

  • Minimalist packing - Travel the world with carry-On luggage
  • How to create value on your Instagram
  • How to create successful landing pages
  • Performance marketing
  • How to get your ideas sponsored
  • Improve your negotiation skills by applying the famous “Harvard Principles”

There were also some more personal workshops that promoted socialising with others like:

  • A salsa course
  • A deep connections workshop
  • Speed networking
  • Talent show


The whole cruise lasted seven days and we travelled to 6 different destinations over the duration. The trip started in Gran Canaria (the location we began the trip) and our first stop was in Tenerife. The next stop was in Lanzarote and then we spent a day at sea. Later we moved on to Morocco and Cadiz, before we arrived in Lisbon.

Here's my personal resume!

Pros:

  • I met a lot of nice and open-minded people.
  • There is a good ambience on the boat.
  • I highly enjoyed the deep connections workshop.
  • The excursions were great, you could explore the surrounding attractions whilst socialising with others.

Cons:

  • The workshops were only basic, for my taste it would have been better to have more advanced ones.
  • The cabins were basic.
  • The food was average.

Personal Summary:
A one week cruise was sufficient for me. I had never been on a cruise beforehand, I am more the wild and
individual traveller but I would be happy to participate again. For all those who are afraid of doing such trips as a
solo traveller, do not worry you will quickly become in contact with other digital nomads and travellers. I am very
happy that I met some people on my trip to which I will definitely stay in close contact with.
