Disney tips

In the five years I worked as a VIP tour guide at Disneyland, I got to know the park very well.

I visit Disney World about twice a month, so I'm always looking for a new place to stay. On a recent trip, my family booked a one-bedroom villa at Disney's Riviera Resort using our Disney Vacation Club points. 

I loved participating in the Disney College Program — where students and recent grads can work at the theme parks for a semester — so much that I did it twice.

It's been about 10 years since my husband and I first visited Walt Disney World Resort with our two kids. At the time, we were the parents of preschoolers, and none of us had ever visited Disney before.
