This article deals with the theme of verbal and non-verbal communication of crew members of the cruise ships, in the concrete with its ethnical and professional versions. First of all the authoress tries to describe how different cultures perceive the reality through the way how they use English and what kind of cultural behaviour's traits does it indicates. After that she analyses similarities in perception and even in the way of thinking of crew members of different ethnicity, which developed on cruise ships due to the same shared life called by them 'ship life'.

Cultural norms in relationships are learned from parents, peers, and many others whose values, attitudes and behaviours take place in the context of their own social culture. This paper, partially based on author´s diploma thesis ´Doubled identity of crew members on cruise ships as the instrument of cultural adaptation´ supervised by Mgr. Helena Tužinská, PhD., investigates intimate relationships of men and women of various ethnic identities with different cultural backgrounds who work on the cruise ships. Coming from all over the world, crew members of cruise ship bring different cultural values, norms and attitudes here. Nevertheless, shortly after the embarkation they are confronted by ´ship life´- the specific way of life on the cruise ships. Its acceptance is the only way of successful adaptation to the new social environment. Independently of their authentic cultural norms in relationships they acquire norms specific for ´ship life´ and enter intimate relationships with characteristics of its part- ´ship love´. This paper explores these characteristic as well as the strategies the crew members involved in these intimate relationships use to deal with the difference between their authentic and newly acquired intimate relationships´ norms. To make the mosaic of intimate relationships on cruise ship complete, she takes closer ´look´ at themes which are communicated by crew members most frequently: arranged marriages in some parts of India and transitional bride migration of some Filipino and Thai woman.
