Hello and welcome! We are Kevin and Trenise West and our channel is travellingwests. We loved the idea of using traveling and our last name in the channel name; however, the channel with one "l" was already in use. So, we used the UK spelling of travelling with the double "l" and there is an "s" at the end because there are two of us. We recently retired and our channel is about retirement and our travels across the US and around the world. We show you how we are doing it by sharing our journey (the good, bad, and ugly), passing along retirement ideas, travel tips, and giving you nifty tricks to save money. We hope that we will inspire you to retire and travel too. Join us on our adventures!

How about going back?
@annecordova2696 We only used this service one way because our cruise was a transatlantic cruise so our final stop was Italy. I believe that the company has a round trip option but you would have to contact them. Thanks so much for watching. Safe travels.
So cool, I love the way you show us through your eyes. I feel like I am there beside you wondering around…very nice. Greece is on my list of places to visit
@gg13308 Greece is wonderful. We really enjoyed our visit and we would love to return. I will be dropping a video or videos of our island hopping in Greece before our return to the US. Take care
Might consider going on her from Portsmouth in the future.
@nicholasjones9705 I liked the ship and I hope that you can sail on her one day. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for the tour
Thanks so much for watching.
Thank u for sharing
Thanks so much for watching.
Do you have the link for the hotel you stayed at? Cambria?
Thanks for watching. The link to the hotel is www.cambriaorlando.com/
I'm cruising in about 4 weeks . I also will be booking them. Thanks for the review.
Thanks for watching. I hope you have a wonderful trip.
I went to Greece in May 2022,staying in Athens, Mykonos and Santorini for three to four days in each location. It's a much different experience when you're able to be there outside of cruise ship hours. A much better experience as even if it was busy we had the luxury of time as we didn't have a ship to get back to.
Thanks for watching and for sharing your experience. It is nice to know that staying on the island is better than doing it with the cruise. We have friends who will be staying there this fall and they were nervous after our experience. I really appreciate your taking the time to let us know that it can be better.
And so, by traveling to see what we love, we ruin it for ourselves and everyone else. 😢
I know. Hopefully we can find a balance. Thanks for watching.
Oh snap! We got gear now?
Are you planning on visiting there? If so, I hope that you have a better experience. Safe travels and thanks so much for watching.
Nice vlog. You’ve a nice voice. You should narrate more in your video 👍
Thanks so much for your comment. I really appreciate your support.
Glad you had a good cruise. I hope to try Virgin someday. I am in my 50s and hope I dont feel too old for the ship 😆
It is definitely a different way of cruising. I did feel like the old lady on the cruise but there were people in our age group on the ship. Thanks for watching.
The transatlantic cruise must have been really crowded if you could not get a reservation at Cagneys. Usually they are not so crowded. I am like you that I like to try new ships even though I enjoy a cruise. I have been on Epic twice. You guys seem very balanced in your review. Keep enjoying your retirement. You earned it!!!
Thanks so much for watching. Yes, this cruise was a lot more crowded than we expected. The secret may be out that transatlantic cruises are bargains. Lol!
Really enjoyed this. I've been on the Epic twice and think she is a great ship. She's got lots of quirks for sure. However the venues are so large. The lines you experienced were crazy. I never experienced things like that but I cruised Epic before the "free" drinks package. So happy to see you guys exploring and enjoying your retirement.
I really like NCL a lot. I am looking forward to more cruises on this line in the future.
The first drawer you opened is for wet towels.
Good to know. We have another cruise with them later this year and the storage was great on this ship. Thanks for watching.
I loved my vacation to Italy but got motion sickness on way home ... never thought it would happen
Motion sickness is the worst! The sea bands help a lot, and I try to put them on before we start sailing. But sometimes the seas are so rough that you just have to get through it. However, I will still travel despite that and I hope you will too. Thanks for watching.
Another great video! I’m surprised how uncrowded it was even for early in the morning. Thanks again I enjoy following your adventures! 😊
Thanks so much for watching. I really appreciate it.
My wife and I are about to retire and move to Lagos, this was a wonderful video and beautifully narrated, thank you so much
Thank you so much! I hope that your move is successful and congratulations on your retirement!
Beautiful pictures! Fun!🎉
How long did it take to boat from the meeting point to the caves?
Thanks for your question. It took about 30 - 40 minutes to get to the caves. Safe travels
Thank you! Considering staying in Lagos and your video is so helpful. What time of year was it when you were there please? (You may have said but I missed it.)
We were there in May of this year. I am back in the states now but we are still in Europe in CZcams land :). I have so much footage because we went to so many places.
Thank you for this video! I’ve been trying to decide the best option for getting to Port Canaveral with my husband and 4 y/o. The options that include a car seat or where you take a bus that wouldn’t require a car seat are so expensive. It was so nice to see on Cruise Control Transportation’s website that they don’t charge for using their car seats. ❤
Wow.. Not cheap
Thanks for your comment. Europe is sooo expensive but Lisbon is more affordable than a lot of European cities.
Not wrong about Lisbon! I felt I could handle anything after that!
Lol! You have to be in great shape to do the type of travel that we do. I hope that we can keep it up. Thanks so much for watching.
Enjoyed the video, what is the name of the hotel you all stayed at?
Thanks so much! The hotel is Hotel Marina Rio. It's in a great location.
Hello, this is the owner of Cruise Control Transportation. Thank you for the review we really appreciate it.
We really enjoyed our experience with your company and the customer service for our ride was great.
Thanks for the information! I have a cruise coming up next month and had no idea how far the port was from the airport! Will contact Cruise Control....Thanks!
We had a great experience with them. They are not sponsoring this video but the customer service was awesome. Have a wonderful trip!
Thanks for the video. Interesting lunch spot. D Tablas. Will try and find it Is every avaliable from the Port into town? Thanks
BTW, we travel this coming week, so looking forward to it
Thanks for watching. The walk from the port to town was about 15 - 20 minutes. It was an easy walk and port to navigate.
Be well. Thanks for sharing!
It’s funny you mentioned cruising is the best way to determine if you want to return and you can see multiple cities. I did the same thing in Italy. I do however, have a few places in Italy that I want to return to and spend more time in. Love your videos!!!
Thanks for your comment. There are so many places to see! I would love to go back to Italy and spend a whole month in the country traveling from city to city. I appreciate your support.
I would love to visit venice, how long do you think for a first time visitor? Love the airbnb, and I love how you take me with you and I can see what you see…THANKS SOO MUCH!!! Love your channel
I would spend at least four or five days. Venice is so beautiful. Thanks for watching.
I like this design and encore and bliss a lot better than the new prima/viva ships.
The new ships are huge but I would like to try to cruise on them some day. Thanks so much for your comment. Safe travels.
Good video. We were on the Norwegian Epic in February 2023. While the ship is relatively new, there are significant problems that will impact your cruise. First, we really disliked the set up of the toilet and the shower in the stateroom. It was OK as we traveled as a couple but had I brought a friend, there was a total lack of privacy. Second, the entertainment venues on the Epic are small for a ship that size. If the ship is crowded, those venues are often filled an hour before the performance. We did not like the service on the ship but that is another issue.
Thanks so much for your comments. I agree that the bathroom set up is not great if you are traveling with a friend because of the lack of privacy. The lines for the shows were long but I thought that it was due to the fact that we had so many sea days but that may not be the case. Thanks for watching and for your support. Take care.
You realize that traveling should be spelled with only one L, right?
Thanks for your comment. Yes, we spell traveling with one l in the US; however, that channel was already taken so I decided to use the UK version of travelling because I loved the idea of travellingwests. I was wondering if I should put that explanation of why I went with 2 Ls in my channel description. LOL. What do you think? Thanks so much for watching. Take care
I was in Marseille for 1 week, loved it. Marseille is pretty. What month were you there? I ate turkish food, which was plentiful there. The bus for norte dame was on the marina on the water side. I took it
We were in Marseille in April and it was chilly. We should have taken the bus but live and learn. Lol...
Good info ty… Americans eat aLOT of red meat
lol...Americans eat a lot of food. Period. I know that I am guilty of that but hopefully I will get better. Thanks so much for watching.
I was there a few years ago traveling through Spain, loved Alicante spain. Nice quaint and walkable. I climbed it from the other side with a guide..not an easy hike, but it was nice and cool when I was there. Loved the sights, sounds and food
We absolutely loved it. Thanks so much for watching.
wow…love the fruit and veggies…looks clean. Surprised, I was in Milan and I was surprised by how dirty it was. I took a cruise from Civitavecchia, but did not stop in Livorno
Wow! We haven't been to Milan in years. Hopefully we can circle back to some of the places that we have visited in the past. So many places to see. Thanks for watching and for your support. Safe travels.
Hiya, it was lovely meeting you both 🥰 safe travels xx
Thanks so much. It was great meeting you as well. Take care.😊
You should go from Europe to the USA. The time lays is a lot easier.
We will try that in the future. Thanks for the tip!
Good review thanks
Thanks for watching.

Thanks for the recommendation. We will have to check it out. Safe travels.

Gringos are coming to Mexico 🇲🇽 to spend their us dollars and live a cheaper life .. they don’t care about Mexico 🇲🇽 it’s people or culture… please leave..
I look forward to hearing more about the MSC cruise. Watch out for the pick pockets in Lisbon.I love that old city. You have wonderful trips coming up.
Now that we are in Europe, I am being very cautious so that we are not a target for pick pockets. Thanks for the advice and we appreciate your support.
Always wanted to do a transatlantic cruise. I’ll look forward to that video.
We are working on the transatlantic video now and it should be uploaded in about a week. Thanks for watching.
Great plans!
We are on this massive European trip right now and things are going well with a few hiccups. I feel so blessed to be able to travel and see so many places. Thanks for watching.
