This video popped up and it was great to learn a little more about you as a person. We share some similarities. One of the biggest is the empathy thing and taking on others' emotions. I have discovered it's called being a "highly sensitive person" and have found many helpful articles in understanding it. I think that not liking anything scary is part of that. I have ready that can be common in hsps and is true for myself. After discovering your videos, I have been watching many of them during the past month and your love of Disney, your positivity and your joy has helped bring a bright spot to me during a hard time. I will definitely continue to follow your adventures as I am a major Disney fan, but cannot get to the parks as much as I would like to and my 2nd Disney cruise was canceled recently. I am an only child and I love seeing your relationship with your siblings and your family. You are so blessed! I hope your love and enthusiasm for Disney never diminishes and you continue to appreciate the opportunities you have. I am glad to be able to live vicariously through your adventures in the parks and at sea. Many blessings to you!
I know this is an old post, but I'll try a reply anyway. My wife and I are 53 this year (2018) and our love for Disney is always growing. I don't think the magic will ever run out. Love you and your family.
You sound and seem very empathetic... An empath, if you will. I have to wonder how many Disney super fans are empaths? Since we feel other people's emotions so strongly, being in an extremely excited and happy environment is a very heady feeling. I've recently discovered your channel and I love your enthusiasm and love of Disney. Keep up the great work💖
I have been watching for about 6 months - but just saw this. It answers many questions and some I didn't expect (wrestling - but doesn't like surprises). had been on zero cruises at date of taping. And big changes in last 3 years - particularly speech delivery. But, same sincerity. I can't wait to hear "more".
Fun video! It’s nice to get to know the people we watch every day. My family loves your videos and we were so excited to meet you at Epcot this July at the reopening of the parks. We travel from 1,000 miles away at least 4 to 5 trips a year. Hope to see you again in November on our next trip. We love your enthusiasm for Disney.
Great to know more about you now! We have these things in common... Love all things Disney, more trips to Disney than I can count, same dream vacations, never smoke, Star Wars fan, don't do scary, no tattoos, don't drink much, don't like to bite anything cold, don't go camping, favorite ride is Space Mountain. Thanks for all your fun videos... Love them!
I'm so glad that Rob Plays shared your channel with us today! I watched a few of your recent vlogs and I was curious as to who you were and how long you've been on RUclips. I'm surprised you don't have more subscribers! You're great! You definitely have the Disney personality or whatever, they should hire you!
A lot of your 50 facts resonated with probably a lot of us. We just watched Jaws so we're on the same page with that one. Space Mountain is an all time favorite too.
This is an awesome video. Really kind of you to share all this with us was very fun to watch. Personally I think you should share your recipe...I love Baklava and have not tried to make it yet. Would be cool to try yours! Thanks for sharing your personal facts with us! :)
+Amy Jo I'm glad you enjoyed it! Absolutely ", looking forward to hear how it turns out: www.google.com/amp/s/allrecipes.com/recipe/9454/baklava/amp/?client=safari
Hi Michael WOW thank you for the mention! I'm so glad that I was able to inspire you to do what you are doing with your Disney page! You are a true inspiration to many and you bring joy to people every day doing what you do! Keep doing your awesomeness you are doing great and I am so proud of all that you have accomplished and continue to accomplish! People are fortunate to have you share a part of you every day! You are the best!
Great to find out more about you Michael. Really interesting stuff! It's funny how many facts I relate to. The sand fact and the stuff about sea creatures I definitely agree with! One thing I love about visiting Disneyworld is how other guests react to my accent and when they find out that I'm from Scotland. Its always fun hearing peoples attempts at the scottish accent.
Enjoyed this video, Michael! I just discovered your channel, it's so helpful. I can relate to many things, especially the empathy. It can be difficult. I haven't been to WDW in about 12 years, but I am planning a birthday trip for January (or maybe sooner). I think I want to try and make it an annual thing. Thanks for all of your advice!
+LadyWestminster I am DELIGHTED to hear the video was helpful and I am so glad to be able to share the magic with you! My pleasure, let me know if you have any questions 👍
Hey!! Newbie here 👋🏻 all the way from the Shetland Islands (a group of islands at the very top of Scotland UK) I just happened to come across your videos and now I am hooked!! Never been abroad, or even Disney BUT it is on my bucket list for 2020/21 🤞🏼 and watching your vids has helped me out so much!! Thank you ❤️ xx
+Holly Heidt hahaha! I had to put a list together to remember it all. Lol. I am so glad you enjoyed it! I hope to do more videos like this in the future. 👍
this is super late but we are such similar people! i can relate to nearly everything on this list from being a scout and lifeguard to being unable to lie and being empathetic to others!
my family is saving for a Disney vacation, and your videos help us plan for it and get more excited too. thanks for all your hard work we appreciate it!
you are a neat guy! I'm planning my first Solo Disney World trip in June, and I'm watching all your videos to get great ideas and tips. Thank you for opening yourself up to making these videos so I have some ideas of what to expect, its been 5 years since I've been there and I'm looking forward to it!!!!
Thank you for allowing us to get to know you better! Really great video :) Thats funny, I have the same fear of the Disney magic going away and it has not thus far, and I am a lot older than you so I don't think you need to worry :) My favourite Character is Mickey Mouse as well and York peppermint patties are my all time fave. Not a fan at all though of Space Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain definitely :)
Michael! Just found this oooold video and it's crazy the lack of pins, magic bands and other decorations that you have up as of today! Happy to have found you on RUclips man!
So glad I found this to watch. I was cracking up watching it. I may watch it again just because it was so funny. And it was so funny because I related to so many things you said.
I can't believe we're close in age! You seem so much more mature and distinguished! LOL I know this video is 2 years old, but I enjoyed getting to learn about you more, been watching for a while now.
Going in November can't wait. I have been before before they would not decorate until after Thanksgiving well the Magic Kingdom. So will be our first time. I hope it is not crazy busy!We heard it is called Jersey week. Have you been there around Nov 6-13. We have and it was so nice!
Wow how things have changed. Would love to see an update to this video. I've seen you at Disney a few times but have never had the guts to say hello, but we love your videos. ❤️

Hey, Michael. This is Rodrigo, from Brasil. I found your videos when I was surfing in the youtube. I´m always a Walt Disney afficionado. I´ve had an oportunity to visit Walt Disney World with my family, from my 14th thru 21th (how many birthdays spent in the parks - from December - so Christmas and New Year´s also spent there). After that, I've worked for Sheraton, near the park. Lived in Orlando for 2 years. It´s a dream that came true. Before or after work, I´ve always passed by one of the 4 parks. Well, love to hear about your 50 facts (I saw all your videos from 2018, and now I´m coming back). It´s so nice to see that you're board behind you is getting filled with Disney stuff (and I can see that you have a brazilian mickey pin, just on the right of your video, above your computer). Thank you for your passion, and the way that you make your videos (so I can remember, and see what´s going on on Disney World). Regards from Brasil. Rodrigo.
I really enjoyed this enlightening video. I am with you about "stuff" in the ocean getting on me. Floating seaweed, you never know what might be hiding in it. Was surprised that you are 6 feet tall and 26 y.o. and agree that you have an "old soul" which makes you more mature and seem older than you are. Know what you mean about saying you are from MD and folks not knowing where it is. Many people, when I am in FL do not know where Maine is. I tell them it is up in the NorthEast, and touches Canada and "No, it is not near the North Pole". I actually was asked once if Maine was a small country. So wish you would make a video of the HM sound track, your voice is perfect ! Last but not least, the beetles, on you, while camping out...... Aaaahhhhh! " Hello, Hampton Inn, I need a room"
+Karen Cowan I am delighted to hear that it brought a smile to your face! Haha, we have so many things in common! Oh no, of course everyone should know where Maine is. Oh well. Haha yes, it was quite an interesting night 🐞🕷🐜🦂
Regarding fact#49.... my first visit to Disneyland, I was 2 yrs old. Now I don't remember it, but my 2nd visit there I was 13, and I fell in love with it. As an adult, in my 20's til now, I have visited WDW at least 45 times. I am now 60yo, and I can tell you, the love and passion never leaves. Enjoy the new adventures that Disney will bring, as I have done.
I can't stand biting into cold things either...and Mickey is my favorite character too. My dream job is to be a nurse at Disney...I even have a name for it...a nursekeeter! Thanks for sharing! It's nice to learn more about you.
Hi, Michael! Been following your channel for about a year and a half now, and I just love it. You are absolutely one of a kind, and such a wonderful soul. I watched this video a while ago, but it just popped up for me again and I found out there was one part I missed: You know ASL! I'm in my last semester of school to become an interpreter, and I think it's so great that you have an awareness of and appreciation for that beautiful language and Deaf culture. Thank you for all you do, and keep up the amazing work! - Taryn
@@JourneyTogetherToday Thank YOU for the joy you bring to this not-so-little family you've created here! Our Disney countdown is currently at 299 days, and you have no idea how much it helps to have your videos during this long, looooong wait. My kids and I have so much to look forward to, and we're even more excited about it, thanks to you.
I’m amazed by how many of these I relate to! I have plans to visit all the parks around the world and if I won the lottery it would be my first stop. I also learned ASL at college and use it occasionally for work. I don’t do scary at all. I am allergic to pineapple but only if I touch it, I can eat it without problems. I had chicken pox twice, once as a baby and once in my teens. And a bunch more! No wonder I enjoy your videos so much. I have been using them to plan for my next trip in August 2019.
Just found your vlog, so I was curious to find out more about you. It's cool to learn we have similar characteristics. I haven't been to Disney yet and I'm much older, but I will search through your vlogs for any 1st time advice.
I'm glad I got to watch this video and get to know you better! I am also an Eagle Scout and love to go camping! If you love Peppermint Patties, you should go visit HersheyPark in PA sometime. They have awesome rides and great food too! I am also a dog person and I love Bulldogs. It's cool seeing you're from Maryland as well!
Hi Michael , I to am an old soul.... But then again I turn 60 on my birthday so that could explain it for me. I really enjoyed your video. It was wonderful. I'm a total Disney Person also. I started out back back in 1976 going to Disney land in my younger years. But have been going to disney world every year since 1984 when my kids were young. The love for disney world has never faded in me.. We just got back from a late sept. trip this year and already I'm beginning early planning for next year.
Thanks for this video Michael! I recently discovered your vlogs and was curious to learn more about you. I too thought you were older, mid-30s or so. But I mean that as a compliment, you seem very mature, you do have an old soul. I am a Chief Scout, Canada's equivalent of an Eagle scout (Scouts are co-ed in Canada BTW). You didn't answer the question I'm sure many of us are wondering, do you have a special someone in your life?
I think he looks younger than he says, but the shadow adds age for some people, but 20somethings even older teens have facial hair. I remember getting on the bus and seeing a guy with almost a beard and I was like, dang is he too old for school or what?! Lol.
I'm pretty sure I am just as obsessed with Disney as you! I lost count at 40+ and that was when in was 20 I'm 30 now. my parents have the Disney vacation club so we have been blessed the last 5 years getting to go stay at all the different deluxe hotels its been so awesome!!
Interesting to hear about your job and what you do. Work life balance is so important! Did you know years ago Disney used to have a corporate training program for companies, hospitals.etc. that would teach organizations how they could give a Disney type experience? Thanks for telling us about yourself! :)
Michael you are an old soul. You are my daughters age and wow would I be so happy to have your personality in a son of mine, your parents raised you well! Mount Killington is in my backyard. Are you working in the same field now that you are in Florida? So glad to hear, "I can't lie", that was me. As a young teen my sister would feed me exact words to say for a lie and I still couldn't do it, as soon as I started I would burst into tears.
LOL you play Disney music in your car?! well me too! I have Disney movie music like ALWAYS - Frozen soundtrack, Little Mermaid Soundtrack, Beauty & the Beast ... i play it all! great 50 facts, i feel like i personally know you
Lol love this. I hate biting cold things also. So cool to see you did some of these things. I was a girl scout . Awesome. Haha so going through alot of your videos.
Glad RUclips recommended this 2 years later lol. I was staying at French Quarter with my family during hurricane Charlie too. Such a different experience
What a great video; this, is awesome! thanks, for making it. I agree, you'd be great as an official Disney info person, like Stacy. Next time you're there, hit up guest hiring.
Ok, I love you! Lol you could be my son I’m 61, but, mostly I love Disney I dare say more than you. And that’s just because I’m older! Sadly I haven’t been to Disney as many times as you, but every time I have the opportunity to go I enjoy it 200%. You are a wonderful young man, congratulations
There is so much in that video that I have in common with you. I’m a definite dog person, went to this camping type thing with a friend in high school - nope, never again - love peanut M & M’s too, don’t drink or smoke, never been on a cruise - but DCL is on my bucket list. I have a good bit of Disney stuff on my iPod, but I do listen to all kinds of music. Hopefully I’ll get another dog soon. I actually have a name picked out already - Henley (I am a huge fan of The Eagles).
Michael, we think you are incredible! Tracy and I had know idea we had so much in common with you. We are a NO scary movie house, we hold the truth in HIGH regard and we love Disney.
You were a wrestler at the same time my older son was wrestling, he was very good also! Most people don’t know what a seriously tough sport it is, like you even more now, lots of respect for you Michael! 👏💪🏼🤼♂️
Hi Michael I love your videos. Wow I never knew you from Maryland. Me too and I’m a big Disney lover as well. I been to Disney World twice last year for the first time. Now I’m a DVC member and a D23 gold member as well.
Loved the more personal side of Michael. I would have never guessed your age. Your first trip I would have said your 20s, your second trip I noticed your grey hair and started wondering if you were in your 30s. Would love your baklava recipe. I was surpised by a lot of the things about you, which is not surprising even though I have seen most of your love streams and all of your youtube videos you rarely get personal. It is really nice to see the real you!
+Jennifer Guinn I am delighted by your feedback! I am going to try and do more "Real Michael" for everyone 👍. Absolutely! I will be happy to send it to you!
Jennifer Guinn here it is: www.google.com/amp/s/allrecipes.com/recipe/9454/baklava/amp/?client=safari. Let me know if you try it! I would love to know how you like it.
I am so happy I am not the only person allergic to pineapple. It is pretty cool that you are to. I love your video's. I am a very big fan of Disney but unfortunately I have never had the change to go to disney world. Keep on making your video's.
Hearing about your empathy made me feel better. I am the exact same way, my empathy seems to be at an astronomical level; you can see that in your current videos as well. The old soul, definitely, although I'm much older than you, I had an old soul at age 5 LOL And I had gray hair at 18 LMAO
Finally watched the whole video! I agree with so much!! -I hate scary movies. -I can’t bite cold things and I can’t watch others do it. It used to send shivers down my spine when my grandma would bite into fudgesicles. 😳😣 -I live across the street from the beach (Chesapeake Bay in VA) and I hate sand sticking to me as I walk home. -I’ve always had an old soul, too. Until I was in high school, I preferred hanging out with my grandparents’ friends. Ha!
Wow! You are literally the only OTHER person I know who loves Hercules the most! Also, I also got injured at Killington; I dislocated my left shoulder in a wipeout on an ice patch 26 years ago (I was 17)
LOL! I like to ski now too, but hated it as a kid after a terrible experience in upstate NY - with MY cousins! (they and my brother also would go to Killington, without me). But since I took lessons and learned to ski I love and especially out here in the west. (BTW - I used to live in Frederick, MD)
I relate on so many levels; love me some peanut M&M's and even though I'm a Disney Local, I've never wanted to work there for the fear of not loving it anymore. Disney makes me so happy and the thought of falling out of love with Disney makes me so scared. Disney's Hercules was the first Disney movie that I saw in theaters multiple times! I'm hoping to dress as a Female version of Hades for MNSSHP this year :D
Wow 26, I really thought you was more my age, I'm 32 lol I been to Disney almost every year from the age of 8, i too lost track of how many times I been to Disney 😂 I'm happy to hear you don't smoke, I'm a none smoker myself, and agree about the no drinking rule in Disney, thank you for sharing this info, I now know you bit better 😊
I recently found you on you tube! I watch at least one every day! It was great to learn all about you! I love your energy and your voice! Disney Cruise line should hire you! Walt Disney himself would love you! Tell me more about Disney Wonder Cruise ship!
1. The dark knight is the best movie ever. 2. I'm also allergic to some cats but not all, don't know what that is about. 3. I know the haunted mansion loop as well, it drives people insane 4. Skiing is so fun! 5. I can't lie either, my face gives it away like yours. Dont know what makes it happen!
This video popped up and it was great to learn a little more about you as a person. We share some similarities. One of the biggest is the empathy thing and taking on others' emotions.

Michael this has been one of my favorite videos you have done. It's nice to get to know you better.
+Chelsea Brown I'm delighted to hear that. I hope to do more of these types of videos in the future. ✨
Michael Kay that would be neat. You should do one about each park.
I know this is an old post, but I'll try a reply anyway. My wife and I are 53 this year (2018) and our love for Disney is always growing. I don't think the magic will ever run out. Love you and your family.
I actually never went to Disney till I was 36. Fell in love with Disney and have been back almost every year since !!! Thanks for sharing !
Really! How exciting! I can only imagine how the magic felt that 1st time you walked into the Magic Kingdom!
You sound and seem very empathetic... An empath, if you will. I have to wonder how many Disney super fans are empaths? Since we feel other people's emotions so strongly, being in an extremely excited and happy environment is a very heady feeling.

The tomorrowland music loop is one of my favorite things in life. I listen to Disney music in the car, at home, and at work.
Oh so glad to hear I am not alone there!
I'm so glad that Rob Plays shared your channel with us today! I watched a few of your recent vlogs and I was curious as to who you were and how long you've been on RUclips.

A lot of your 50 facts resonated with probably a lot of us. We just watched Jaws so we're on the same page with that one. Space Mountain is an all time favorite too.
I feel you on the empathy...lol. I have too much, and it can be a great thing, or a horrible thing.

i hope to find someone just like you when i get older. everyone besides my family laughs at my love for Disney
26!!!!! So many great facts! thanks for sharing so much. You could be the next President of WDW!
+Gienna thank you!! Aww. That means a lot!
Enjoyed this video, Michael! I just discovered your channel, it's so helpful. I can relate to many things, especially the empathy. It can be difficult. I haven't been to WDW in about 12 years, but I am planning a birthday trip for January (or maybe sooner). I think I want to try and make it an annual thing. Thanks for all of your advice!

I am a huge fan of yours. I am from Vermont of all places and I do know where Killington Ski Mountain is.
I really enjoyed this - I don't think I could think of fifty things to tell people about myself!!
+Holly Heidt hahaha! I had to put a list together to remember it all. Lol. I am so glad you enjoyed it! I hope to do more videos like this in the future. 👍

I don't like scary movies either! No fun. Glad to know someone else feels the same way
A definite YES to Euro Disney!! I love it there so much. 😄
+Lauren C ☺️✨👍
Ok we need an update version!
New to your channel was nice learning a bit about you 😀
So glad I found this to watch. I was cracking up watching it. I may watch it again just because it was so funny. And it was so funny because I related to so many things you said.

Enjoy the new adventures that Disney will bring, as I have done.
Michael, you are such a sweetheart! You’re vlogs make me smile!
I can't stand biting into cold things either...and Mickey is my favorite character too. My dream job is to be a nurse at Disney...I even have a name for it...a nursekeeter! Thanks for sharing! It's nice to learn more about you.
+The Kelster Life what wonderful similarities we have! Love your dream job!
Hi, Michael! Been following your channel for about a year and a half now, and I just love it. You are absolutely one of a kind, and such a wonderful soul. I watched this video a while ago, but it just popped up for me again and I found out there was one part I missed: You know ASL! I'm in my last semester of school to become an interpreter, and I think it's so great that you have an awareness of and appreciation for that beautiful language and Deaf culture. Thank you for all you do, and keep up the amazing work! - Taryn
Thanks so much for being a part of the magic with me!
@@JourneyTogetherToday Thank YOU for the joy you bring to this not-so-little family you've created here! Our Disney countdown is currently at 299 days, and you have no idea how much it helps to have your videos during this long, looooong wait. My kids and I have so much to look forward to, and we're even more excited about it, thanks to you.
I’m with you on the biting cold things!
Nice to learn more about you! Great channel! Thanks for all you do and stay magical! 😀
I’m amazed by how many of these I relate to! I have plans to visit all the parks around the world and if I won the lottery it would be my first stop. I also learned ASL at college and use it occasionally for work. I don’t do scary at all. I am allergic to pineapple but only if I touch it, I can eat it without problems. I had chicken pox twice, once as a baby and once in my teens. And a bunch more! No wonder I enjoy your videos so much. I have been using them to plan for my next trip in August 2019.
Michael, I too am an Eagle Scout! that was a really cool video, thanks for sharing
Really! Very cool! My pleasure!
Just found your vlog, so I was curious to find out more about you. It's cool to learn we have similar characteristics. I haven't been to Disney yet and I'm much older, but I will search through your vlogs for any 1st time advice.
I'm glad I got to watch this video and get to know you better! I am also an Eagle Scout and love to go camping! If you love Peppermint Patties, you should go visit HersheyPark in PA sometime. They have awesome rides and great food too! I am also a dog person and I love Bulldogs. It's cool seeing you're from Maryland as well!
Great video! I loved getting to know you better!
Hi Michael , I to am an old soul.... But then again I turn 60 on my birthday so that could explain it for me. I really enjoyed your video. It was wonderful. I'm a total Disney Person also. I started out back back in 1976 going to Disney land in my younger years. But have been going to disney world every year since 1984 when my kids were young. The love for disney world has never faded in me.. We just got back from a late sept. trip this year and already I'm beginning early planning for next year.
Thanks for sharing facts about yourself I love your vlogs and I am a major Disney nut!
Thanks for this video Michael! I recently discovered your vlogs and was curious to learn more about you. I too thought you were older, mid-30s or so. But I mean that as a compliment, you seem very mature, you do have an old soul. I am a Chief Scout, Canada's equivalent of an Eagle scout (Scouts are co-ed in Canada BTW). You didn't answer the question I'm sure many of us are wondering, do you have a special someone in your life?
My pleasure! I really appreciate it, I take it all as a compliment. No, not right now.
I was curious about that too because Michael is so pleasant!
I think he looks younger than he says, but the shadow adds age for some people, but 20somethings even older teens have facial hair. I remember getting on the bus and seeing a guy with almost a beard and I was like, dang is he too old for school or what?! Lol.
I'm pretty sure I am just as obsessed with Disney as you! I lost count at 40+ and that was when in was 20 I'm 30 now. my parents have the Disney vacation club so we have been blessed the last 5 years getting to go stay at all the different deluxe hotels its been so awesome!!
Interesting to hear about your job and what you do. Work life balance is so important! Did you know years ago Disney used to have a corporate training program for companies, hospitals.etc. that would teach organizations how they could give a Disney type experience? Thanks for telling us about yourself! :)
+Jennifer Blanchette I sure did! It sounded amazing, I would have loved to be a part of it. 👍. Thanks for being a part of the magic with me
Michael you are an old soul. You are my daughters age and wow would I be so happy to have your personality in a son of mine, your parents raised you well! Mount Killington is in my backyard. Are you working in the same field now that you are in Florida? So glad to hear, "I can't lie", that was me. As a young teen my sister would feed me exact words to say for a lie and I still couldn't do it, as soon as I started I would burst into tears.
Ha! #3 is so true for me too, except I lost count for WDW at 40, I've been to Disneyland 10 times, and Disneyland Paris once. And I'm only 18.
+Backstory Ben omg! That is awesome! Clearly I have some catch up to do! 😂👍👏
LOL you play Disney music in your car?! well me too! I have Disney movie music like ALWAYS - Frozen soundtrack, Little Mermaid Soundtrack, Beauty & the Beast ... i play it all! great 50 facts, i feel like i personally know you
Haha so funny to watch this old video and hear you say you've never been on a cruise. :P
Thanks for sharing! I'm going to attempt to make the Baklava for Christmas Eve.
+Paula Warchuck how fun! Can't wait to hear how it goes. 👍
Lol love this. I hate biting cold things also. So cool to see you did some of these things. I was a girl scout . Awesome. Haha so going through alot of your videos.
Glad RUclips recommended this 2 years later lol. I was staying at French Quarter with my family during hurricane Charlie too. Such a different experience
What a great video; this, is awesome! thanks, for making it. I agree, you'd be great as an official Disney info person, like Stacy. Next time you're there, hit up guest hiring.
+Thea Freimund thank you!! Haha that would be a dream come true. Maybe one day. 👍
I understand the empathy challenge. Nice to get to know you better😁
Ok, I love you! Lol you could be my son I’m 61, but, mostly I love Disney I dare say more than you. And that’s just because I’m older! Sadly I haven’t been to Disney as many times as you, but every time I have the opportunity to go I enjoy it 200%. You are a wonderful young man, congratulations
There is so much in that video that I have in common with you. I’m a definite dog person, went to this camping type thing with a friend in high school - nope, never again - love peanut M & M’s too, don’t drink or smoke, never been on a cruise - but DCL is on my bucket list. I have a good bit of Disney stuff on my iPod, but I do listen to all kinds of music. Hopefully I’ll get another dog soon. I actually have a name picked out already - Henley (I am a huge fan of The Eagles).
Great video, thanks for sharing! Your videos have been a joy to watch and it's nice getting to know you more.
This was great to learn about you thanks!
+Welcome To The World delighted that you liked it! I hope to do more personal videos in the future. ☺️👍
Michael, we think you are incredible! Tracy and I had know idea we had so much in common with you. We are a NO scary movie house, we hold the truth in HIGH regard and we love Disney.
I'm the same with bitting cold thing!! Don't drink either and my fave is Hercules as well!! So cool gettting to know you better
You were a wrestler at the same time my older son was wrestling, he was very good also! Most people don’t know what a seriously tough sport it is, like you even more now, lots of respect for you Michael! 👏💪🏼🤼♂️
Hi Michael
I love your videos. Wow I never knew you from Maryland. Me too and I’m a big Disney lover as well. I been to Disney World twice last year for the first time. Now I’m a DVC member and a D23 gold member as well.
Loved the more personal side of Michael. I would have never guessed your age. Your first trip I would have said your 20s, your second trip I noticed your grey hair and started wondering if you were in your 30s. Would love your baklava recipe.
I was surpised by a lot of the things about you, which is not surprising even though I have seen most of your love streams and all of your youtube videos you rarely get personal. It is really nice to see the real you!
+Jennifer Guinn I am delighted by your feedback! I am going to try and do more "Real Michael" for everyone 👍. Absolutely! I will be happy to send it to you!
Jennifer Guinn here it is: www.google.com/amp/s/allrecipes.com/recipe/9454/baklava/amp/?client=safari. Let me know if you try it! I would love to know how you like it.
I think you should do a Baklava cooking demonstration video instead of just sharing the recipe. Loved your 50 facts! :)
+Sandy FromNJ what a FANTASTIC idea!! I might just have to do that! Thank you!
I am so happy I am not the only person allergic to pineapple. It is pretty cool that you are to. I love your video's. I am a very big fan of Disney but unfortunately I have never had the change to go to disney world. Keep on making your video's.
Hearing about your empathy made me feel better. I am the exact same way, my empathy seems to be at an astronomical level; you can see that in your current videos as well. The old soul, definitely, although I'm much older than you, I had an old soul at age 5 LOL And I had gray hair at 18 LMAO
My husband shared your video for our upcoming cruise. You seem very nice. Good luck with your dream. Love your old soul.
Thanks for helping us get to know you better!
Of course! Thank you for taking the time to know me better!
I enjoyed this too!! Thanks for sharing!! 💖
So glad! Thank you!
💖💖💖
New to your channel and THIS was an excellent get to know you vlog! Great job, love your channel!
Ok... I officially love you. Lol
We have so much in common! I have a huge phobia of getting in the ocean as well and I hate anything scary.
Finally watched the whole video! I agree with so much!!
-I hate scary movies.
-I can’t bite cold things and I can’t watch others do it. It used to send shivers down my spine when my grandma would bite into fudgesicles. 😳😣
-I live across the street from the beach (Chesapeake Bay in VA) and I hate sand sticking to me as I walk home.
-I’ve always had an old soul, too. Until I was in high school, I preferred hanging out with my grandparents’ friends. Ha!
Wow! Love your channel. It was actually 51 facts...you had #26 pop up twice 😛 I've enjoyed binge watching your videos!!! Thanks for all you do!
Wow! You are literally the only OTHER person I know who loves Hercules the most! Also, I also got injured at Killington; I dislocated my left shoulder in a wipeout on an ice patch 26 years ago (I was 17)
LOL! I like to ski now too, but hated it as a kid after a terrible experience in upstate NY - with MY cousins! (they and my brother also would go to Killington, without me). But since I took lessons and learned to ski I love and especially out here in the west. (BTW - I used to live in Frederick, MD)
Oh wow. So close! Sorry about that accident!
I relate on so many levels; love me some peanut M&M's and even though I'm a Disney Local, I've never wanted to work there for the fear of not loving it anymore. Disney makes me so happy and the thought of falling out of love with Disney makes me so scared. Disney's Hercules was the first Disney movie that I saw in theaters multiple times! I'm hoping to dress as a Female version of Hades for MNSSHP this year :D
Wow 26, I really thought you was more my age, I'm 32 lol I been to Disney almost every year from the age of 8, i too lost track of how many times I been to Disney 😂 I'm happy to hear you don't smoke, I'm a none smoker myself, and agree about the no drinking rule in Disney, thank you for sharing this info, I now know you bit better 😊
HAHA! Yup, just an old soul. I am glad you liked it!
ROTC nice! I was active duty in the Navy for 4 years
Thank you for your service 🇺🇸
So nice to see a guy my age that is so sweet, put together, and gentlemen like. Gives us single girls hope.
Aww. That’s incredibly kind of you to say. Thank you.
Totally agree!!!
I was just thinking the same thing! Where are all the sweet and kind guys my age? 😫
I totally agree !!
I was thinking the same thing except not for myself because I am married and I'm in my 40s. But really, you are an absolute dream, Michael!
I recently found you on you tube! I watch at least one every day! It was great to learn all about you!
I love your energy and your voice! Disney Cruise line should hire you! Walt Disney himself would love you! Tell me more about Disney Wonder Cruise ship!
You're awesome! Your vlogs are so detailed, ha!
I live in Delaware(down at the beach)... but you know.. that beach in Maryland😂😂
1. The dark knight is the best movie ever. 2. I'm also allergic to some cats but not all, don't know what that is about. 3. I know the haunted mansion loop as well, it drives people insane 4. Skiing is so fun! 5. I can't lie either, my face gives it away like yours. Dont know what makes it happen!
Catching up- rerun. Love your vlogs. 😀🙏🏻❤️👍
I totally relate with #8!!! 😂
Love the videos Michael! Keep doing you! Love the positivity!
so happy I am not the only Disney nut out there!
+Topher Magellan haha of course not 😊👍
Love your videos. You are awesome!
I have been watching you for a while now, just stumbled on this. So cool learned more about you. I think you and I are a lot alike.
