How Much Does The Disney Cultural Representative Program Cost?
How Much Does It Cost To Do The Disney Cultural Representative Program For UK Applicants? One of the questions most people ask when applying for the Disney Cultural Representative program is how much does it actually cost? The fees involved before evening arriving in Orlando seem to put a lot of people off. There’s only one piece of advice I can give you regarding this, and that is: the Disney Cultural Representative Program is so worth the small amount you pay beforehand! The application process is a lengthy one to begin with; in total my application took almost 11 months. Yes it’s a long time, but at least it will…

2018 My Year In Review
I’m not sure if many people read these year in review blogs, but I love them. I like seeing what other people/travellers were up to and it’s a nice way to look back on what you did each year. 2018 was by far one of the busiest and best years of my life. I started the new year literally in Walt Disney World. I celebrated by drinking cocktails in Hollywood Studios and watched the Epcot fireworks from the Boardwalk. Travel Stats For 2018: Hotels stayed in: 14 Hostels stayed in: 3 Countries lived in: 2 Countries Visited: 4 Nights slept in a tent: 11 Nights slept in a native hogan:…

Visiting The Picturesque Town Of Quebec City
I recently came back from a 5-day trip to Montreal to visit my friend Laura. I was really eager to get in a visit to Quebec City. After much searching online, I made the decision to book a guided tour. You can get to Quebec City via bus and train but it costs the exact same as booking a one-day tour. Maybe the cost of a bus or train would be worth it if you were staying for a few days but I only had time for a day trip. Our tour was supposed to start at 8am; we were put behind by 30 minutes because the hotel shuttle was…

A City Girl Eats: Montreal, Quebec
A City Girl Eats: Montreal This past month I visited Montreal for the first time. I was pretty excited to see what Quebec offers in terms of food and I was not disappointed. Poutine I’d never heard of poutine and had no idea what it was when I first moved to Canada. I guess it’s just like cheesey chips and gravy, for anyone who’s from the UK. But poutine is different, it’s cheese curds and they have to be fresh! If they don’t squeak in your mouth, it’s not a good poutine. After waiting two years to try my first poutine I finally did so in Quebec, and it was…

5 Reasons Why Philadelphia Is My Favourite City In The U.S.
When I first added Philadelphia to my East Coast itinerary I initially only did so because I really wanted to see Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell. I hadn’t researched the city at all; I made the huge assumption that Philadelphia was just full of crime and honestly thought there was nothing here. Well I was wrong on so many levels, a quick search of Trip Advisor and I found tons! In less than 48 hours the city had me falling in love with it. A Rocky Start It all started with a more than memorable greyhound bus journey… I booked our greyhound from D.C. for 10:30am. It’s about 3-4…

Visiting The Oak Alley Plantation In Louisiana
During my recent visit to New Orleans, I managed to fit in a visit to one of Louisiana’s famous plantations. I’d always wanted to visit a plantation, the history surrounding them had always interested me. There are a number of different plantation tours that you can take, and some companies offer multiple plantation tours. But I had my eye on one in particular. The Oak Alley Plantation. Ever since stumbling across this beautiful place online, I knew I’d visit one day. We were given a little overview of the areas history on the bus ride over. We passed several other plantations on the way, including the Laura Plantation. The plantation…

My First Impressions Of New Orleans
First Impressions Of New Orleans Driving into New Orleans, I noticed the city was far dirtier than I’d imagined. Whenever I saw photos of New Orleans it always looked so beautiful. I shook it off and decided I’d make my decision on this city after my four-day visit. Bourbon Street Bourbon Street is the most well-know street in New Orleans, there are always people walking down this road, and it’s always lively. I was pretty excited to check out Bourbon Street and it was one of my first stops. But after experiencing it for myself, I didn’t like it at all. I would describe myself as being a pretty laid…

Exploring The Big Easy: What To Do In New Orleans
I’d wanted to visit New Orleans for a long time, the history and architecture always looked so picturesque. The closest I’d ever gotten was New Orleans Square in Disneyland. Surely the original inspiration would be just as beautiful? I was staying at Disney’s Art of Animation with my friend Emily for two nights prior to the trip. My Friend Hollie was joining me on the trip, and met me at Art of Animation the night before. This way we could get the Magical Express to the airport for free. Our bus was leaving at 3:30am.
