The Real Reason Ships Are Called ‘She’ – Language, History, and Myth

Hey hey hey, I'm Emma and I LOVE cruising! I took my first cruise when I was 11 and I've been hooked ever since. I create cruise content across YouTube, this website and my social accounts, all with the aim of helping you to find, and take your perfect cruise. 40,000 people receive my best cruise tips, insights and guides every week. You can join them for free by clicking here.

Whenever I take a cruise, I order a print of my trip. It uses the real satellite data from the cruise and is always a great conversation starter!
