Genius Move? Man Lives On Cruise Ship To Save Rent Money, Claims It's Cheaper Than Living On Land

The expense of living is rising every day. People are struggling to live comfortably because they cannot earn enough money to support themselves and their families.

In the midst of such concerns, a guy from the United Kingdom has decided to embark on a once-in-a-lifetime journey that will take him to many destinations over the course of 1,000 days. He is doing this not only for his love of travel but also to save money. Here's his story.

UK man lives on a cruise ship and claims it's cheaper than renting on land

The remarkable thing about the vacation is that the cost of living is far lower than what he would have had to spend at home in England. He also gets to explore the world.

It's a brilliant approach to avoid the rising costs of everyday life. In November, Adam, a medical engineer, will embark on a cruise ship to begin his adventure around the world.

It will begin in Istanbul and lead him to cities such as Shanghai and Montego Bay. Adam told Daily Mail Online that he had been through some difficulties in his life and wanted to take a break. "I've recently been through a few life-changing events," he explained. "I was beginning to think I'd had enough of this."

He'll be aboard Miray International's MV Lara, which is operated by Life at Sea Cruises. Their cruises begin at 60,000 pounds a year and include trips to the world's seven wonders. He initially mistook the offer for a scam: "When I saw it, I thought, is this a scam? Three years travelling the world?"

The man will visit 382 locations across the world

Adam will visit 382 locations, including the Deception and Half Moon Islands in Antarctica, which he is most enthusiastic about. "I've always wanted to go to Antarctica," he added. "A trip to Antarctica on its own would cost thousands."

During the trip, the man intends to finish his Master's dissertation in business administration. He would not have to worry about laundry, food or housework, and he would not have to pay for gym, internet, energy, rent, petrol, doctor's visits or theatre tickets for the next three years.
