Who is Brad?

Welcome aboard!

I’ve been cruising since I was a kid, and over the years I’ve sailed on a huge number of cruises to destinations like the Caribbean, Mexico, Iceland, Alaska, and even along the coast of Norway. I’ve always been fascinated by cruise ships, their sheer size, the floating cities they become, and the feeling of waking up in a new place every morning.

These days, I split my travels between solo adventures and trips with friends. Sometimes I’m exploring ports on my own, and other times I’m sharing the ship with good company, either way, I always find something new and exciting to discover.

Brad On Board is my way of sharing that love of cruising, the ships, the cabins, the food, the ports, and the little moments in between. Whether you’re planning your first sailing or you’re a seasoned cruiser, I hope you’ll find something here to inspire your next trip at sea.
