While the passengers on the ship enjoy the most, Lincee shares her experiences as a member of the Sailing crew. Her encounters with fellow officers and the life of a crew member.

The untold tales of a sailor at sea is about her journey from being a great member to becoming an officer. Her adventures during her life at sea. How each experience made her stronger and she discovers herself and her talents. From being courageous to stand for the truth to how difficult it was for her to make friends on the ship. I loved the way she narrates her experiences in the most unfiltered descriptive way. One could feel her struggles, pain and every small achievement. This book will make you smile, will make you feel the pain and the emotions. With Lincee the readers too will live and experience the life on the sea.

The way she discovered few secrets at the sea as a crew member, and how she learned the small but important lessons of life there. I loved the way she gave cruise tours and how every experience made her crave more for the sea. What I loved most is how she never gave up on her passion and found time for herself. Her spiritual growth, well my most favourite part of the book. One of my favourite stories is Vladimir’s story, the cookies story. The way she planned events, and did prayers, everything felt real.

With simple language and an intriguing writing style, this book has stories for life. How the life of a crew member is different and difficult, how no one cared about their mental health and the way they are treated. Lincee interestingly shares the untold stories.

It’s a bit slow-paced story with too many details but then the twists make it all worth it. The tough situations she faced during her contracts and the way she handled them is something we must all learn.

It’s an inspiring, adventurous journey of Lincee and her experiences at the sea which are worth reading. Especially to know about the life of people who makes our journey a comfortable one. It’s A light, breezy, inspiring read you can count on.
