Left from Greece. Sailed cheap, so I was bunking with three other men. Journey was meant to take about six days, but the weather turned sour. It was- pretty great, at first. Felt like an adventure. Like I was actually doing something worthwhile, after a couple years doing fucking nothing. Upper decks were reserved for the first and second class passengers, so we just stayed down below and played cards and drank for the first few days. They seemed decent types. One guy was seasick as fuck, and we all took turns rubbing his back and directing the vomit to places that weren't any of the beds.
Went south when the weather went bad. In the 'turned bad' sense. The ship wasn't going south.
