We Did What Everyone Said Was Crazy — One Year Later Update

A year ago we packed up our lives and moved to Orlando to live next to Disney World. Everyone thought we were nuts. So how did it actually go? Here's our completely honest one year update — the magic, the money, the lifestyle and everything we've learned. We cover: ✦ A quick catch-up on who we are — Army veteran turned travel advisor & OB/GYN physician who went remote so we could make this move ✦ How we found our house — we put an offer in the same day we toured it before our Baltimore house was even on the market (stressful but worth it) ✦ The real cost of living comparison — Orlando vs Baltimore vs Los Angeles: - No Florida state income tax (huge) - Home insurance less than expected - Car insurance comparable - Overall costs about the same with a better quality of life ✦ Does the Disney magic die when you live here? (Short answer: absolutely not) ✦ How our relationship with the parks has changed — we're not rope dropping anymore but we're in the parks every single week ✦ Pokemon Go at Disney Springs — the new way we explore the parks ✦ How living here opened up our travel — Hawaii, two Disney cruises, the inaugural Lighthouse Point sailing & the Disney Wish ✦ Magical Mustache Man & Fantastical Vacations — one year of content creation and travel advising (and how it all started) ✦ What's coming next — Halloween Horror Nights, a Christmas Disney cruise, Virgin Voyages Alaska 2026, Disneyland's 70th Anniversary, Japan bucket list trip & Mediterranean cruising ✦ Honest advice for anyone considering making the move to Orlando 📌 If you haven't seen our original moving to Orlando video, watch it first! 🏰 Thinking about planning a Disney, Universal or cruise vacation?
