It’s been one month since my Virgin Voyages crui It’s been one month since my Virgin Voyages cruise and I’m still confused why no one is cooking gourmet food for me, or bringing me cocktails all day long. 😩

I had a super comfy bed with real cabin space, a tablet to control the lights, TV and curtains (I felt like a queen), and don’t even get me started on the food—every meal was ✨a moment.✨

Now I’m home reheating leftovers and wondering why my house doesn’t have mood lighting and a spa within walking distance.

10/10 would get spoiled again. 💅
