My Journey

From Hobby to Full Time Disney Blogger

I’m a Kiwi who lives in London with my husband and two daughters.  We’ve always loved Disney and if a holiday is being planned then it’s likely that you will find us at a park somewhere.

The last 6 years has seen Orlando and Walt Disney World become our holiday destination of choice.  I like to joke that taking a holiday at WDW is extreme parenting so I’ve found that a little research can go a long way. I’m always on the look out for unique and interesting tidbits so that I can surprise and delight my family whilst ensuring that I don’t over engineer our holiday because who wants their holiday to become a tick box exercise.

Level of Planning

Keys to the Magical Kingdom was Born

This level of planning has led me to become the go to person for friends and colleagues, so I decided to set this blog up to share some of what I’ve learnt over the years.  If your lucky enough to be able to visit Disney on multiple occasions then these tips might give you something new to look out for or if this is a once in a life time holiday then I’m hoping that it will help make it just that little bit more magical.

I hope you enjoy my posts and please feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
