I live in Orlando and visit Disney World weekly. From working out to seeing concerts, here's what I do in the parks.

As an Orlando local, I go to Disney World on a weekly basis.Josephine Maida

I've lived near Disney World for over five years as a former employee and frequent guest.
Even though I go to the parks about once a week, it's still fun to visit and do my favorite things.

I moved to Orlando for my Disney College Program back in 2017 — where I worked in a few different roles between 2017 and 2021 — and I've lived no more than 15 minutes from Disney World for the last five years.

Throughout that time, Orlando unexpectedly became my home, and I truly couldn't imagine living states away from the parks again.

I usually go every week, and I still find new things to do, but I've also found ways to incorporate the parks into my everyday routines.

The parks are the perfect place for a date night.
