    It was a delight to hear Chelsea Fuller talk about the Semester at Sea. My cousin is on that ship as a Lifelong Learner and loves it as much as Chelsea does. It’s never too late in life to take the trip. Every cruise includes adventuresome adults who have the time and love to learn about cultures other than their own.

    I am so excited….I will be going on Semester at Sea as Registrar for 740 students, from 340+ colleges and universities. I will be able to take my husband and 15 year old son. It will be an opportunity of our lives. Thank you for the great interview.
    I keep playing this over and over.
