Saw a post today about a girl being a “pet psychic” who is apparently super successful. Wondered what other examples are out there.

    They just introduced a Cosplay Cruise for the first time as part of Comic Con Africa, it seems cool but just so far out of budget for your average comiccon attendee. I understand why it costs what it does though.

      Yeah definitely pricey, part of our audience though is older and really invested in their hobbies with others. They like the ability to take a cruise as they may have normally but then enjoy the trip with like minded folk with things to do between port visits that appeal to our geeky minds.

        That’s the key. You get to book a vacation & know you’ll be surrounded by people who at the very least share 1 interest with you.

        I went to Fan Expo with my husband & we had a great time wandering around, but didn’t meet anyone. We hung out & then went home. I imagine if you’re staying overnight, having meals, drinks etc it’s more conducive to being social. Love this idea!
