THE PERSON BEHIND THE STORIES
Hi, I’m Lizzy Lou ✳
A travel blogger, a lover of cruising, and always curious about what’s around the next corner.

Welcome to my little corner of the world
I’m Lizzy Lou, a travel blogger who loves sharing the places I discover, the ships I sail on and the little moments along the way. From exploring Japan with my family to a quiet morning on the Danube, these are my own journeys, in my own words and photographs. I hope they inspire a little adventure of your own. I also host solo cruises with Passion for Cruises — another lovely way to bring people together.
Here you’ll find my own photographs and stories from my travels: mornings on deck, a look inside the ship, a wander ashore and those small moments worth remembering.
A familiar face when you sail solo
Alongside my personal adventures, I’m a Passion for Cruises solo cruise host. I help bring people together onboard. On our nine-night Ambience adventure, there were 42 in our group — and by the farewell get-together, new friendships had formed.

I share more of my adventures on Instagram, Facebook and YouTube. It’s lovely to have you here.
