Nina Chuba Recounts Grueling ‘Traumschiff’ Shoot, Says She Won’t Return to Acting

Her account challenges the show’s glossy image.

Overview

  • In a Sept. 15 interview with Blick, the singer called her 2018 stint on the ZDF series “absurd” and physically draining.
  • She said she received daily injections from the ship’s doctor to cope with severe seasickness during weeks at sea.
  • As a vegan, she recalled often eating only bread rolls because “there was nothing vegan” available on board.
  • She compared the monotony to being trapped in a Kafka novel, though she cherished karaoke nights with Filipino crew members.
  • Shore excursions were the highlight, including a solo day in Japan, a family meal in Mexico, and a risky mountain climb in Central America.
