[Exports_project_office] couple of positive comments after the call today

[Ivona Cetinic]

I personally feel good to travel now that I am fully vaccinated! Thank you
to Ivona and all the EXPORTS organizers for compiling and communicating so
much info and prioritizing safety for cruise participants.
With vaccine becoming more available, it has become much safer for
travelling.

I have felt anxious about contracting covid during travel to the UK, not be
cleared to sail, and have to train an alternate virtually to run our
equipment for the cruise! But now, I have my first vaccine shot scheduled
for this Saturday, and I feel WAY BETTER and confident that things will
work out smoothly. The 14 day isolation is certainly daunting. I bought
some knitting supplies, and am trying to stay positive about finding
alternate ways to stay occupied inside! I really liked the mental health
check-in discussion today, I think it will be very important. As a younger
member of the cruise, I definitely feel a bit nervous and an imposter-like
pressure to do my job well aboard the ship. Despite having prior cruise
experience, this one feels bigger, more important, and obviously more
stressful because of the restrictions in place during MOB. But I know that
everyone is supportive, and that we are all here to help each other out. I
am so grateful for Jason and Deb, and feel very honored to be a part of
this mission. I am confident that everything will be a smashing success!
