In the last days you could hear a lot of sentences like: “when I am home I will…” or “I miss … at home”. But what is home?
Of course home is where our families are, where we live normally and where we have our friends, hobbies and houses. But also the Roald became a home for us over the last 6 months. Here, we miss maybe home, but at home we will miss this home.

I would define home as the place where you live, where you can be yourself and where you have people around that you like. I think home is more a feeling than a place. I think for many of us the Roald has a lot of criteria for being a home.

We are living here already for 6 months, so of course it is the place where we live. Our chambers, the mess room and our nice wooden deck are a part of everyone’s everyday life. But also special rooms like the engine room, the “Lasten” or the Navi developed to places we like and a few of us spend so much time in this rooms that we call them the homes of those people. You see every part of this ship found a place in our hearts.

The place, which is the most like home is their own bed. It’s the place where you can be alone where nobody is allowed to be in if you do not want that and what you can design like you want, your own little home.

Because nobody judges you on Bord for what you are wearing or doing, I think you can be yourself. On bord we don’t have our family around us, but friends, our teachers and crew members that became a new family to us. You always have somebody to talk to and a shoulder you can cry on. That’s a really good feeling and makes this ship the most to our homes.

Of course, the Roald cannot replace our real homes with our mothers, fathers, siblings and friends and that’s why everyone is exited to return to our other home in Germany. Cause home can’t be only one but also two or more places that take a place in our hearts.

Greetings:
