About Me
Hi everyone! I’m Jonathan from Pennsylvania. If you’ve got questions regarding the Walt Disney World Resort then Hakuna Matata (no worries) because I’m happy to provide the answers! My Disney princess, our three Disney-loving sons, and our large extended family have made special memories visiting Walt Disney World Parks and Resorts for many years. We’ve made each visit to the Most Magical Place on Earth unique due to the variety of amazing experiences Disney World offers. I’m looking forward to helping your family (large or small) discover the magic of a Walt Disney World Resort vacation!
About My Family
I am married to my Disney Princess and we are raising three Disney-loving sons. My wife and I met when we began our careers as teachers in Pennsylvania. I am now an elementary school principal. We love to travel and with this family all roads (or airplanes) lead to the Walt Disney World Resort. Birthdays, weddings, educational achievements, anniversaries, and family reunions have all been celebrated at the Most Magical Place on Earth. While not at the Walt Disney World Resort, we can be found at the baseball field, beach, lake, movies, or shopping!
About My Disney Experience
My first visit to the Walt Disney World Resort was in 1987 when my parents brought me, my brother, and my sister to Magic Kingdom Park. There has been no turning back ever since! My wife and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary at the Walt Disney World Resort. We continued our visits with our three sons. We have taken great joy in watching our sons “grow with the Disney Parks.” My oldest two, twin boys, enjoy the thrill-rides and the adventures of Pirates of the Caribbean, Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular! and Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge! My youngest can always be found with a Mickey Bar in-hand while enjoying some fun in the sun at the resort pool with his mom. We have found the beach-themed resorts such as Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa and Disney’s Yacht Club Resort feel most “at home” for our family. No matter how many times I visit the Walt Disney World Resort, I never grow tired of hearing those magical words as Disney Transportation arrives at our resort, “Welcome home!”
