LOVE conquers all, even in a pandemic, as P&O Cruises Australia shipmates Julie McEwen and Leeron Lungo (pictured) recently showed.
McEwen, from New Zealand, and Lungo, from South Africa, first met working on Pacific Explorer in 2018, before McEwen was transferred to Pacific Dawn 10 days later.

After spending three months on board together during the pandemic – a challenge that would prove tough for any couple – McEwen said she knew she had found the one, and Lungo agreed.
With the couple now based on the Gold Coast, Lungo surprised his partner earlier this month with a beach picnic, where he popped the question.
Hot off their engagement, the two will soon also host a four-night Virtual Short Break Cruise, which will feature a regular lineup of events – facebook.com/pocruises.
