Every one of us has that inner child that dream of wonders and fantasies. What better place can fill that dream than Disneyland? So we came up with this article to share helpful information about different Disneyland theme park locations and our personal experiences visiting one of what’s believed to be the happiest place on earth. Along with this article is our story of how we overcame our struggles and opportunities that allowed us to live life the way we want it.
We moved to America two years ago to fulfill our dreams and goals. But being new to a foreign land isn’t easy, we had to start small but our expenses are big. When we got in here, my husband just started working in his company. He was under a contract with minimum pay and no benefits.
I wanted to help him support our family but my options were limited because he travels 45 to 1 hour to get to his job, we only have one car and I have no driver’s license. So I looked online and found this training program on how to start a digital marketing business. I had zero knowledge and experience in digital marketing. But because of this training program, I successfully launched our own business.
One of the things I love about owning a business is that I get to decide how many hours I want to work for myself and I have flexibility in my day-to-day schedule. This provides me the chance to spend more time with my family, explore and experience the fun.
And what better place to experience fun than Disneyland? Since we moved specifically to California, we grabbed this opportunity to visit one of the happiest places on earth.

It’s nice to be able to experience fun and adventures while we are young. I’m grateful because we’re able to experience these together with our family. And I didn’t have to worry because we continue to generate income with our business that’s using an automated system. So we get to enjoy our time while our business is running in the background. Managing an online marketing business couldn’t get easier. It’s continuously running anywhere and anytime. And can create passive income.
It gave me the chance to be a full-time stay-at-home mom working part-time on our business that runs full-time. I get to spend quality time with my family without worry because I don’t have to close the business to take a day off.
