i love these "getting to know you" videos. It's funny that you make Isabelle talk while riding the roller coasters....makes me laugh every time. Bravo on the way that you phrased the ending "negatives" comment also. You gotta stay and be the change. Great video.
Appreciate the kind words! Had to record that end part a couple times because it’s obviously a touchy thing in florida and we want to make things as accessible as possible for everyone 🫡
I just love the “family” you all have created. So blessed my girls are part of your life! Dying laughing over Isabelle talking while on crazy rides.
All thanks to our wonderful mother 🫶
I love what Julie had to say about the sense of Community here, even though she doesn't live here. As a 5+ resident of Orlando ( previously Miami) I can say that Orlando has small-town vibes in a big city. My neighbors are great and friendly, and I too moved here for work, and I am so happy I did. You guys always crack me up I'm happy to support the channel as much as I can!!
Thank you so much for the kind words! Big town with small town vibes is the perfect description!
So happy we made the move ❤️❤️
Was born in Terre Haute, lived in Mooresville/plainfield and now am near West Palm. We always say that if the six months over summer didnt exist it would be heaven
I am LOVINGGGG the rollercoaster interviews, I’m also so excited to be seeing Halloween horror nights content as an honorary big baby™️ I love watching from afar
Thank you Kayla!
We’ve got a full HHN video filmed but honestly don’t know if it’s going to make it to air 😭
It just seems like people aren’t interested in the event so much past opening weekend 😢
We love Winter Garden with our back road all the way to Disney. Luckily we rented first bc even though we could live forever right where we are, our ideal area would be Hamlin/Waterleigh area. Just a little bit closer.
This video is actually very helpful for me as someone trying to figure out my pivot to moving to Florida.
Hope this helped in some small way! Let us know if you have any more questions 🙏🙏
Thank you for sharing. We love your videos and honesty 😊. Also love seeing Julie on the videos as well.
Yes! Thank YOU for watching! 🙏
Juli need to make it into more videos! She was just only in town for two nights this time 😢
It's been a few videos since we asked for more Isabelle and you have not disappointed!! Isabel and I are kindred spirits with the hatred and fear of winter driving (we live not too awful far from Indianapolis). This video was great, and very relevant for us, as we are planning on relocating to the area surrounding the parks in the next couple years. The sooner the better! Thank you for all the great info, would love to pick your brain more!
Of course, we just had to include more isabelle! (which was easy because my sister was off in California this past week anyway 😂)
Always feel free to ask questions in the comment sections of our YT videos, we try our best to respond to what we can get to 🫶
We also love your sister's vlog and are part of her Patreon! I didn't know if you could share how you found your home near the parks? What were the pros/cons you had to weigh? Is there any trick to finding established neighborhoods where you do not have to deal with short term rental properties? We have plans to come down to the area over the next few months and are hoping to scope things out. Any help or advice is highly appreciated!! @@ForTheLoveOfThemeParksVlogs
Loved this vid!
Thank you Brooke! 🙏🙏
I'm with Isabelle when it comes to snow. I don't know if I could live in Florida, but there are friends who keep trying to convince me. 🤣
It’s definitely a HIGE adjustment! (Also, this video is not meant as an ad about moving to florida, we just wanted to share part of our story 😅)
@@ForTheLoveOfThemeParksVlogs Haha I know. They just keep trying to get me there!
Lmaoooo the review on A.S.s is hilarious !
Love your videos and the honesty. You and Isabell are so entertaining. We were a subscriber even before we found out you were Hoosiers for a while. We live in Carmel. I guessed you lived in the downtown area of Indy. Fountain square?
We were actually closer to greenwood, but both worked in the city! It was a great area, but like we said in the video, we didn’t make any friends in the year+ we lived there 😢
We appreciated your kind words and support! Thank you 🙏 ❤️
I love hearing your story. Thanks for sharing.
Thank YOU for listening to our story! Maybe we’ll have to share more soon 😅
Just moved here and this was super relatable! Isabelle had me cracking up trying to talk on rides that was so funny. Julie is the unspoken star.
Thank you so much! Hope everything with the move went well ❤️🙏❤️
I am really digging these ride interviews. 😂 Please keep doing them!
We definitely will! If you have any suggestions on what rides to try this song let us know🙏❤️
@@ForTheLoveOfThemeParksVlogs Tower of Terror during the drops would be hilarious. Rock-n-Rollercoaster, OMG Velocicoaster! Hagrid's Motorbike Adventure would be great too. 😄 Whoever is sitting in the side car can be the one talking. There are so many good ones to try.
As a tourist ive always loved staying in Champions Gate. Its interesting to hear how it is from a locals point of view.
that’s the thing, it’s ideal for tourists and that’s kind of it 😭
We just needed somewhere that we could “settle” and Championshate was not it 😣
Couldn’t agree more! We recently went back to Wichita (where we are from) and it just reassured us that moving to Orlando was the best decision for us. And honestly, we need people like us to help things change in Florida…so moving out of Florida is not an option. 😄
It’s a huge relief honestly, going back home, realizing it was the right move 😅
And thank you for staying 🙏 We’ve lost like 50 subs (i’m assuming because of THAT specific part of the video) But gained them right back at the same time 😆 WORTH IT
I moved to Mount Dora this spring and visit the parks multiple times a week. Lots of mileage, but never any traffic! Also being an AP here compared to at Disneyland is wayyy more fun. Nice video, fellas
Also hoping to meet some friends LOL, hoping that I make a few by the 6 month mark
Thank you so much for the support!
We know some other AP’s from Mount Dora, it’s quite the trek but does avoid the traffic 😆
Great vid ! Love that you are all close and have a good time together , Florida is coolness We drive from Tennessee, takes us 12 hours , cause we stop at buc ee’s ! So your lucky ducks to be there! 😂
That is so
Funny vlogging on a ride lol😂
gotta try doing more of that soon 😂
👸great content!👏👏👏thank you so very much.
Thank YOU for watching 🙏🫶
This was helpful! We were looking at Champions Gate as an option. We definitely want to avoid traffic and "touristy" areas.
What area would you consider the "quietest' area to live?
We would highly recommend any of the areas we listed in this video, but if you’re looking for something more quiet, I guess anywhere that’s technically outside of the Orlando city limits would be quieter than within. Obviously avoiding the airport would be great as well for that. ❤️
@@ForTheLoveOfThemeParksVlogs thank you so much! We never looked at Horizon West, so we will check that out. Much appreciated!
me and my fiance watch all of you and your friends video, we love the content, we are moving from NY to florida next week. nervous and excited hopefully we run into you at the parks
OMG good luck! That’s so exciting! Thank you so much for watching 🙏❤️
Indianapolis!!! No wonder u guys are soooo cool! My moms side of the family is from muncie! The hurricane destroyed our house in florida so we spent 9 months in muncie this past year, so i got to live the indiana life for a bit and what nice people! It all makes sense now lol!
Oh no, that’s horrible! Muncie is great, but hope things are going at least a little better since last year! 🙏❤️🙏
I should just move there 😂. So stressed because the E-mail I use for vacations won’t load e-mails.
In order to use a different email address. Expedia wants to send a code to the email that isn’t getting message 🤪.
Want to book a vacation in September but all my flight information will go to an e-mail that doesn’t work.
I came across your videos as I am thinking of moving from California. I am not really worried about traffic but more affordability and also as I’m renting saw four corners any thoughts on the area?
We’ve got a few friends who live in the four corners area and they love it!
Didn’t realize this was an old one lol.
Would y’all be comfortable sharing what type of work you did before this/what type of job you moved to Orlando for? That type of stuff is always interesting to me!
I used to work for a company doing “Media Production” basically a videographer. I also did freelance video production as well. Content Creation is now my full time gig, but i do still take some freelance gigs from time to time 😅🙏
This year will be our third year in a row visiting WDW. We drive from SA Texas! Maybe it’s time to move?🤔. Great video!
Maybe it’s time 😅
That’s quite the trip from texas! but hey, apparently y’all are getting a universal theme park in a few years! 👀👀
Isabel- I am originally from NY and I too had an auto accident on black ice- I am now living in Texas(20 years now)-I won’t even fly north during the winter season. Having to de-ice a plane- no thank you!!
Oh no! Glad we aren’t alone!
It’s suuuper scary, happy I won’t have to worry about that now, just gators 😭 -Isabelle
I totally would leave Indiana for Florida. My family however is not on board...yet. lol As i write this it's raining, cold and windy here. Please send sunshine. 🌞🌻🏃😉
Sending sunshine your way!! 🙌☀️
Thank you so much for watching hope to be florida neighbors one day 🤞🙏
Great video
Thanks Sharon! ❤️
I've lived in Florida twice in my life. When I was a kid I lived near Jacksonville. St. Augustine is awesome, that's the only thing I miss about Jacksonville. It's the oldest city in the country and a really amazing little town. When I was in high school and college, we lived about five minutes from UCF (yes, I went there). The only thing I miss about the area is the parks, especially Universal, and the beach. It was so hot, I usually tried to stay in the AC. The bugs are terrible, and we had snakes in our house twice. Beware of fire ants.
I loved Jacksonville the few times i’ve been! Been to a few pro-wrestling events at UCF since moving and we are very aware of fire ant’s unfortunately 😑
Thank you so much for watching! ❤️🙏
I am a CM at HS and live in poinciana! that takes about 45min! i don't blog daily like you guys do though... so i don't mind too much!
We’ve heard good things about that area! Yeah, the drive can get to ya! We are 30 minutes away now and that feel like a lot some days 😅
I would definitely move to Orlando if I could afford it. I live in Pennsylvania and I refuse to drive in snow or ice as well..
Cost of living is for sure a huge deterrent! We met so many people that only are able to live here because of their work from
home jobs that are headquartered out of other cities 😣
I heard the cost of living is higher? Is that true? I know insurance is double the price.
Absolutely! The price of living is much higher in 2023 than it has been in the past 10 years. 😣
I love the video- I would love to live in Florida again- born and raised in NY- my family moved to Clearwater from 1969-1974- then moved back to NY- I got married and moved to TX back in 2003 and have been here since- now I am soon to retire-my dream is to move back to FL but I don’t know if I would be able to afford the cost of living there- it would be so nice as a retiree to walk the parks and people watch etc 😞
Cost of living is definitely a huge deterrent of many to the orlando area! We are fortunate enough to be able to live comfortably in Orlando, but with the amount of people moving here, cost of living is skyrocketing 🤯
Is content creation your full time gig? Did you recently transition to that? Or is the job in Orlando you moved for to become a theme park content creator?
I have transitioned into my current job of “Content Creator” Previously I was working as a Media Producer/videographer for a company in Orlando and also doing freelance 😄
Congrats man! Well deserved
I feel Isabelle's fear. last time i was so excited about meeting darth vader but then i totally froze, which then made me embarrassed later cause what must they have thought of me... but man he is intimidating in person.
Hahaha i feel like that’s so many people, but not many of us admit it 😂😂
Thanks for watching 🙏🙏
I've said to my husband many times lets move to Orlando but he always gives me good reasons why we shouldn't 🤣🤣 he's right but maybe one day I'll be a snowbird or something 🤣
The snowbird route was what I dreamt of back in the day, but because life happened (as it does) we decided to just go in full time and make it happen 😅
Thank you so much for the continued support ❤️🙏❤️
@@ForTheLoveOfThemeParksVlogs I'm glad it worked out and you guys are having a great time!
Of course! Love the content!
As a dog owner myself, if I moved there, should I be worried about my dog's safety with gators? Cool video and thanks for mentioning where you moved from.
Mating season is particularly active, but if you use common sense and watch your animals when outdoors it will be fine. We also have rattlesnakes, coyotes, and bears! oh my!
As long as you’re always keeping them on a leash or in a gated area, it is safe for the most part. Just gotta stay aware while on walks 😅
Im also allergic to salt water!! I have never met anyone else who is!
YOOO WHAT?! That’s awesome! I’ve also never met another one of my kind 😭
Crocodiles LMAO
The only thing keeping me from moving to Orlando IS the politics. My partner is Trans and they need their medication without jumping through too many hoops.
Great video Ryan and Isabella!
Our hearts go out to y’all! Although I’d like to think Orlando is a more liberal / accepting place, it’s still located in florida and has abides by the laws and regulations the rest of the state has put in place.
We are hopeful that in coming years we will see change for the better 😭🙏❤️
So, wait..... are you and Kristen just joking around about being siblings? Isabelle said Kristen was your first friend when you two moved to Orlando.
Yes, Kristen and I are not actually siblings. Just great friends who don’t like when people on the internet assume when people of the opposite gender hang out with one another they have to be dating. (which is the case a lot) so we said we’re siblings. We also love a good running joke! 😅
@@ForTheLoveOfThemeParksVlogs Even Juli is in on it. 🤣
I would move to Florida to vote against Deathsantis… if I could afford it 😅
I appreciated Ryan's comments about the politics of Florida - with the way things are we need people to flock to FL to save it from itself.
We try to address those things the best we can without making entire prices of content about it 🤷♂️
Just gotta keep it real and push for everyone to live their lives how they want to 🙏😅❤️
Moving out of Florida isn't the answer, although I've been pretty tempted. I was born in Jacksonville, raised in Tampa. I have a trans brother, a non binary sibling, and plenty of diversity of friends. I'll be damned if I let these hateful laws and governor run me or my family/friends out of town, so to speak. Although the heat very well might lol.
Thank you! ❤️ We appreciate you and your family’s strength though everything happening in Florida. We also believe moving out of Florida is not the answer. 🙏
Stay strong in this heat 😅
