By now you probably know a couple of things about me. I’m part of a group of Disney travelers that are the epitome of special. I think of being on the spectrum as my super power and wouldn’t change it even if I could because it lets me experience things that other people don’t get to. I’m a vegan. I love, love, love the Disney dining plan. Read more
