Hanging Out With Mike
✨Casual CreatorHanging Out With Mike description on YouTube:
My name is Mike and I retired from Fort Bragg after being stationed there for 20 years. I created this channel to show people who are moving to Fort Liberty and/ or Fayetteville what this place and the surrounding areas have to offer. However, this channel has now turned into a VLOG about my travel and sightseeing as I make my move to Orlando, Florida. I will still have different theme park content because I always love visiting a theme park, and of course I will take you along on my cruises, but now my goal is to introduce the great state of Florida to you and maybe I can show you some great places to visit on vacation. I feel fortunate to live where other people vacation.
