Today the spotlight shines on Julie Hauck from Cincinnati, OH!

Name: Julie Hauck

Where are you from? Cincinnati, Ohio

First memory of Disney? I was actually too young to remember my first trips but I do remember my brother crying to see Tinkerbell fly while on the monorail. My parents were awesome and we returned to the Magic Kingdom to see her fly!

What makes Disney MAGICAL in your eyes? I have been going for almost 30 years and so much of it never changes. You can count on the ability to share memories with your kids that you experienced with your parents. In a world of constant change, the stability of Disney is comforting.

Favorite Disney destination and why? It is a very hard decision between specifically visiting Magic Kingdom and Castaway Cay Adult beach (Disney’s private island). They are both magical so I would have to say land & sea vacation to experience both! 😉

Favorite Disney Character and why? It was Tinkerbell for most of my life, but I have to admit I love Elsa! Apparently I have an affinity for the characters with a little more depth and attitude.

Favorite Disney Attraction and why? Oh this one is so hard… but I would have to say Tower of Terror. Probably because I have been on it so many times but still get a little scared watching the movie in the stormy library!

Favorite Disney Resort and why? The Polynesian because of the monorail, the tropical vibe, and Ohana!

Favorite Disney Restaurant and why? Ohana for dinner! My whole family loves it! The food is amazing, the atmosphere is relaxing and entertaining, and as the name implies it is very family oriented.

Favorite Disney Quick Service Restaurant and why? Columbia Harbor House because it is just different than the others and has unique options.

3 Disney characters you’d like to have dinner with and why? Elsa and Tinkerbell because they are my favorites and also Anna because she is my son’s favorite.

Favorite Disney snack and why? The Pineapple Dole Whip float. It is so refreshing on a hot day and you can only get them at Disney and in Hawaii at the Dole plantation!

Favorite Disney Movie and why? I could never pick one. Of course Frozen is up there. I also love Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid.

3 Favorite Disney Song and why? Let it Go (everyone’s favorite because it is beautiful and powerful), Gaston (because I love Gaston and he reminds me of my brother with his muscles) and Part of your World (my brother and I used to belt this out on the swingset)

Disney character you’re most similar to and why? Well I used to have long hair so everyone called me Rapunzel but right now probably Cinderella because I clean up a lot after my toddler 🙂

If you could be one Disney mascot for a day who would it be and why? Elsa, I love her hair and dress and she is just cool!

If you could work at one of the Disney theme parks, what job would you want and why? Secret, I DID work there! I worked there in college for 6 months in the college program and got to make Dole whips, Turkey legs, funnel cakes, hot dogs, etc. I never would have wanted to work in food but at Disney it was awesome. I had 4 different costumes, made tons of friends, lived just outside Disney property, got to see all the holiday parades and fireworks, got to go in the tunnels under Magic Kingdom everyday and got to learn things you would never know without working there!

Best part about being a MickeyTravels Disney Travel Agent? Planning first trips for kids and my favorite ones are when parents or grandparents have already been and they are anticipating the reactions of their kids and grandkids!

Why should I book my vacation with you? Because I worked there and go all the time! I have been as a kid, tween, teen, single girl, engaged woman, as a newlywed, on a babymoon, and with my young son! I have a ton of experience and can relay what I have learned on all my trips to you. Plus I LOVE Disney and want everyone to have the PERFECT trip! I will work tirelessly to make perfect for you and your family!
