Living in Orlando was turning point in my life. I became more social and experienced “the city”. Coming from a small southern town, this was a big deal. I met a lot of people and drove around and around. I went to school there and worked as a Pizza Hut delivery driver. I’ve experienced many ups and downs of life there. Had a lot of laughs, met many great friends, learned new things, etc etc. I now live in San Diego, but this place will always hold many great memories :)

Now..onto the bad. Traffic sucks! I swear there’s an accident everyday on Interstate 4. Your 10 mile trip north will now take you..2 hours to reach! :) People can’t drive! During conventions, International Drive is a serious pain. Good luck weaving around traffic then. Around I-Drive, there are many black Lincoln TownCars with numbers on the rear bumper. I called these things elite taxis. These drivers from some third world country will cut you off and almost get you into an accident. Watch out!
Everything is pricey and quality isn’t always up there. Sure, come here if you’re loaded. But don’t be surprised if the money goes away fast. The weather gets pretty nasty and humid. Can anyone say HURRICANE PARTY?! hahaha good times.
It’s a great place for tourists! The parks are cool. My family enjoyed visiting me. Living there sucked! Sure won’t miss the raccoons digging through garbage on the 3rd floor of my condo.
