Fed up, she joins forces with two other over-stressed moms on a quest to liberate themselves from conventional responsibilities--going on a wild, un-mom-like binge of long overdue freedom, fun and self-indulgence--putting them on a collision course with PTA Queen Bee Gwendolyn and her clique of devoted perfect moms.

Mayor Buddy Dyer

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home? As many people, I was attracted to Orlando by the weather, the ease of initial job opportunities with the theme parks after college and it being between Gainesville where I graduated from UF and Miami, my previous hometown.

Carlos Carbonell

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you? It’s unique, authentic downtown core neighborhoods and mainstreet districts -Thornton Park, Colonialtown North and South, Audubon Park, Downtown, Church Street, Baldwin Park.

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home? I was born just a few blocks from City Hall at Orange Memorial Hospital (now Orlando Health). Except for a few years away at college, I have always called Central Florida home. When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you? Downtown is certainly the place we all refer to as “Orlando’s living room.” It is the place we come together as a community to celebrate and more recently a place where our community has come to mourn and comfort each other and a place to find hope and healing. We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you? Our sparkling lakes, beautiful parks and unique neighborhoods that surround our exciting skyline and iconic venues. And then, it’s our diverse community and the unique people of Orlando that really make our City beautiful. What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you? The warmth and hospitality of our people and our combined determination to ensure that we make our City an even better City for future generations. If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Unified. Diverse. World-Class.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you? Again, our downtown core neighborhoods and the people who live there. Our neighborhoods are diverse, quaint, authentic, so different than anyone can imagine, with untouched architecture from true Old Florida mixed with each discernable period of economic surge - plantation, to craftsman, ranch-style, stucco, and modern, all next to each other. There are areas where you can’t deny visual, interesting beauty like Leu Gardens, Lake Eola, Orlando Museum of Art and the Shakespeare Theater lawn and surroundings. The Dr Phillips Center for the Performing Arts. DPC is beautiful and iconic, but even that theater isn’t boastful or ostentatious - it’s lawn now serves as an impromptu memorial for the victims of the Pulse tragedy - it’s our Chicago Millennium Park, in miniature. Mills50 is our amended hipster Brooklyn. Lake Eola is our NY Central Park, but again, just the right size for our city. We don’t need to be sprawling like Miami. We don’t have a big skyline like Atlanta. But we have just as much soul as any of those cities we can compare to, and a lot more love for each other now than any other city on Earth though we don’t yet call ourselves like Philadelphia City of Brotherly Love. We have a democratic City Mayor inside a County with a republican Mayor - and they work together, that’s beautiful. We have a soccer team, a basketball team, and a hockey team - and they all work together, that’s beautiful. We have more Puerto Ricans and Brazilians moving here than anywhere else in the country - that’s beautiful. We don’t have an official Chinatown like San Francisco but in my neighborhood I am walking distance from authentic Vietnamese, Chinese, Korean, Thai and Japanese restaurants and two large asian grocery stores the size of Publix - that’s beautiful. This is a place where no one is from (or very few) but many of us will now and forever be Orlandoans. If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

United. Authentic. Diverse.

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home? I was born and raised in St. Cloud, so I am a true native Central Floridian. After going to UCF and securing a job in Downtown Orlando, I moved to the charming Downtown South neighborhood. When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you? They say “home is where the heart is”, and I believe that’s true. I’ve travelled all over the world, and it is always such a good feeling to get home. Home is my safe dwelling. Home is where my family is. Home is the local restaurants that I frequent with friends. Home is the bars and nightclubs where the staff knows your name. Home is Downtown Orlando and everything in it. We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you? I think all of our bodies of water and parks are beautiful especially Lake Eola. But, I also think our state of the art Amway Center, Dr. Phillips Performing Arts Center, and the renderings of the new soccer stadium are beautiful as well.

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you? I went to college for hospitality and events, and the hospitality at our venues in Downtown Orlando is unparalleled. From the moment you walk into the door at the Amway Center, you are greeted with friendly customer service to the moment they bid you a fond farewell at the end of the event. The servers at our local restaurants and bars that I frequent remember me and call me by name. They become your friend. The hospitality in this city has never been more evident after the tragedy that happened at a place I frequented quite often, Pulse nightclub. The city came together to raise money, donate blood, donate supplies, load / off load supplies, create beautiful vigils, and create a human chain to block families from hate. Despite beautiful Florida weather and nature, the hospitality and the people of Orlando really make it The City Beautiful. If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Patty Sheehan

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home? I first began thinking of Orlando as home because of all the great people I’d befriended and dated here in high school. But I was also concurrently discovering myself in the city’s very underrated underground culture at the time. Those people and those scenes were absolutely foundational to me. I’ve lived almost all of my most formative years in Orlando. And some of them are happening right now.

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

For me personally, it’s wherever the creative community is, wherever they work, play, and display. We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you? To me, it’s downtown. Yes, of course, because of the hundreds of urban lakes, the thousands of old urban trees, and the convergence of old and new. But I’ve lived downtown since before it was a thing. I’ve seen it grow from practically nothing into a pretty big something from not just the front row seats but inside the action. Downtown - and now, its immediately surrounding zones like the Milk District, Audubon Park, and especially Mills Avenue - is the quintessence of Orlando because it’s the concentration of this city’s soul and the best index of what this city wants to be. That’s beauty to me. What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you? The air inside the city’s best bars, clubs, venues, and DIY spaces. The faces of the people in there performing, working, and engaging. The energy that radiates from all that. If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Barbara Hartley

Aspiring. Hungry. Forward.

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home? I grew up in Altamonte Springs and have always loved visiting Downtown Orlando. During my time in media, I met with several businesess throughout the city. Thornton Park Merchants was a client, and I loved helping them with their special events. Around the same time, I experienced my first 12 x 12 art show at Gallery at Avalon Island, which was an exciting event with memorable feelings of “Orlando is becoming a cosmopolitan destination to live in and to visit.” In 2006, I worked for Orlando Magazine in Downtown and then later for Knight (Knight Images). I really wanted to be part of the city’s growth as a volunteer and stakeholder, so I got involved with the Downtown Arts District and later became the executive director.

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

I don’t spend much time at home, so I would say I’m most at home at arts and cultural events much of what I experience in Downtown including the art walks, performances at Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, the Abbey, Mad Cow Theatre and more. The artists and cultural groups become family. We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you? Lake Eola is the most prominent in my mind and now the See Art Orlando sculptures add to its beauty. The skyline at night and the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts are stunning. What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you? The sense of community and the people I meet every day make Orlando beautiful. Orlando is blessed with an abundance of resources and amazing leaders that pave the way to making it a great place to work and live. If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Beth McKee

Vibrant. Beautiful. Inclusive.

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home? In the 1990s, I was living in New Orleans and met Cuban born drummer Juan Perez who had immigrated to Orlando as a teenager. We played together in a band and became a couple. When he returned to Orlando to care for his aging mother and uncle, who didn’t drive or speak english, I came with him. It’s hard to believe I’ve been here for twenty years.

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

I revel in diversity and our little neighborhood, Camellia Gardens off of Oak Ridge road, is a complete melting pot. Mexican, Haitian, Columbian, Puerto Rican, Dominican, African American, Anglo and Cuban households make up our block, alone. When I walk my dogs, I smell Indian spices being roasted and one house has a running dominos table in the front yard, seven days a week. On any given Saturday, music from various cultures wafts across the lawns and occasionally a mariachi band rehearses in the next block over from us. I’ve often said it’s the only spot I could’ve landed post-New Orleans and been happy. We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you? The abundance of lakes and lush growth are what make Orlando so physically beautiful, to me. I love bodies of water and cypress trees. Cypress Grove Park was one of my first local discoveries and I still enjoy it. Sunsets on my street are pretty spectacular, too. What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you? Observing every variation of skin tone and blips of other cultures on a daily basis. The LGBTQ community has a tremendously positive impact on the arts in Orlando and in helping elect progressive leadership. Over the years, they’ve demonstrated how to come together as a community and I’m very grateful for that. If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Southern. Diverse. Progressive.

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home? My parents moved to Orlando when I was a child. We relocated in the early 1970s for better job opportunities for my parents in the booming State of Florida. When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you? I used to call Cleveland my hometown but I don’t any more. Orlando is in my heart and soul. It is the city I represent, the people I work with who have become my friends. Orlando is the great neighborhoods, funky business districts and one of a kind restaurants and bars. We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you? The City Beautiful to me is Lake Eola’s swans swimming on the lake at sunset. It is the giant oak trees at Constitution Green and Loch Haven Park. It is the gorgeous view of our downtown as you are coming onto South Street from Interstate 4. It is the color changing Lake Eola fountain. What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you? The hugs of hundreds of people after the Pulse tragedy. The way people react and say, “I had no ides,” when they see our beautiful downtown for the first time. If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Loving. Beautiful. Creative.

Brandon Delanois

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you? “Home” to me here is our culture - a vibrant mix of diverse thought and passion for progression, whether it be in business or in our community – and it’s amazing what happens when those two are linked! We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you? Our lakes. And you can’t forget UCF! What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you? We are a welcoming city – whether you’re a tourist, new resident or a college student aspiring to make a difference in the world. I always say that Orlando is a “small big city.” Yes we’re a large metropolitan city but we still maintain that old Florida charm that exudes from our neighborhoods like Thornton Park, College Park and the Ivanhoe Village. If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Surprising. Diverse. Vibrant. How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home?

My best friend Taylor Bulloch moved here in 1995. I was having a moment, if you will, and I needed a change. So he welcomed me to his spare room (along with his roommate at the time, Colin Moore) and their extra waterbed (!). I was immediately put in contact with Orlando Weekly, and my life was changed for the good.

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

In the past week since the Pulse incident, I have never felt more at home. Home is a concept, really; it’s not a house. There are so many beautiful and caring people circling around me that I can’t think of any other place to be my home. I know, Wizard of Oz, Dorothy, but in these times of trauma, home is where your friends are.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you?

I live in South Orlando, which, let’s be honest, isn’t always beautiful. But I do find Lake Eola and Lake Eola Heights to be beautiful. I think the See Art exhibits surrounding that lake are beautiful, I think the people - the diversity of the people - to be beautiful. Even the madness of Touristan winks its own beauty in some way. We are lucky to have this melting pot.

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you?

Well, that thing when people knock on your door to see if your OK. Or when you’re walking by them and they say hello. We’re not as broken as this incident would make us seem.

If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Resilient. Ridiculous. Smart.

Caitlin Van Voorhis

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home? My family moved here just before I started kindergarten. When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you? Downtown, Lake Eola, College Park. We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you? Dickson Azalea Park, old Winter Park, the lakes and our growing public art collection. What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you? What could be more beautiful than the love and compassion that our city displayed over the last couple of weeks? In the midst of such pain and horror, we didn’t crumble or turn on each other. We turned towards one another. I have never loved Orlando. If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Unique. Hopeful. Loved.

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home?

I first came to Orlando in 2001 to go to UCF. I only applied to a handful of schools and honestly the choice was made more out of ease than anything. When I was young I went to Disney with my Grandma and made a comment about wanting to live here. She replied “you never know maybe one day you will”. And here we are.

Chris Nault

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

Lake Eola hands down. I see it every day on my walk to and from the office. I visit the farmer’s market almost every week, and have ran the loop around the fountain hundreds if not a thousand times over the years. It’s beautiful. Also, I have a infatuation with Drunken Monkey coffee shop. The murals, the diversity of the customers, the staff. It’s a very “homie” experience.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty?

Besides Lake Eola and all it’s nooks and crannies? Church Street, it’s gorgeous. It’s going through a transition right now and I think it won’t be long until it’s regains it’s glory. The murals all over town; Andrew Spear’s new (and amazing) mural at Hideaway, the retro vintage Orlando sign on Colonial, Sam Flax murals, and the dozens all over. The view of the city from any of the Downtown high rises is also pretty amazing.

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you?

If you asked me a few months ago I am not sure I would have an honest answer. In the wake of recent events I have seen the people of Orlando create something we were missing; love and unity for each other. I am more proud than ever to say I am from Orlando. It’s something that will last forever.

If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Often Under Rated.

Colleen Flynn

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home? I moved to Orlando in 1997 from Tallahassee after finishing college. I had been to Yab Yum in downtown Orlando a few times with a band I was helping to book and always thought that it was such a cool place. When I heard that House of Blues was opening I just packed up and moved to Orlando in the hopes of getting hired. When I first arrived from Tallahassee it seemed like such an enormous place but then I ended up taking a temporary job at a record store across the street from UCF and quickly met a ton of the local music community. I decided pretty immediately that I had ended up in an special place.

Cole Nesmith

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you? Honestly- it is the people who make Orlando home. I love the fact that I can walk into music venues, shops, restaurants and bars all over town and see faces I recognize. People are sincerely welcoming and supportive and it feels like I am part of a family. We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty? My first week living in Orlando I accidently wandered into Winter Park and fell completely in love. I bought a house in the area several years ago and am so proud to call it home. It’s absolutely beautiful with all the oak trees and I drive through the streets every morning on the way to work thinking how thankful I am to live in such a gorgeous place. What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you? The fact that our community is filled with so many interesting, talented and accepting people is what keeps me here year after year. Orlando is a city which constantly strives to develop in such a way as to become better not only for the guests who visit us but also for the residents. We are passionate, inclusive and wholly supportive of each other in times of need. If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Home Sweet Home!

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home?

UCF brought me to Orlando, the people and the growth of the city made me want to stay beyond my collegiate years.

Drew Belani

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

Orlando is the biggest “small city” in the world, everyone is connected in some personal way. The closeness of the community itself can make anyone feel at home.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty?

Downtown, Winter Park, the new International Drive/Dr. Phillips. The city and its surrounding communities mix modernity with old Southern Charm.

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you?

Easy, the diversity. Orlando is a very open an accepting city tolerant of lifestyles, cultures, and religion or other beliefs.

If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Pride. Love. United.

Frank Vertolli

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home?

I was born in Orlando, but there was a point in my early twenties when I decided to make that decision my own. I had spent some time in other cities throughout the southeast, and it was enough to know that nothing was quite like our Orlando.

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

“Home” is about people. The people of Orlando are unlike any others. We are defined by generosity, creativity, and unity. As part of the arts community and the faith community here in Orlando, I get to see how people come together in some incredible ways.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you?

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home?

Moved here from S Florida to go to UCF and never left. S Florida was/is nice, but I felt Orlando had more options, diverse and a vibrant community.

I love walking around Lake Eola late at night when it’s cool outside. I love the Mills50 District, which is walkable from my house. It has been really wonderful seeing our people get out on foot these last few years.

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you?

My family and friends live here, my business focuses on tourism and hospitality, so Orlando is a great place to be.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty?

Larger broad community with many, many individual areas, each with their own personalities: Downtown proper, College Park, Winter Park, attractions area, Winter Garden, UCF area, Sanford, Lake Mary, etc. Decent transportation with plans to grow biking, rail and public options. Sports teams including the Orlando Magic, Citrus Bowl and all it has, great concert venues from small to large, and more.

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you?

weather - not cold, but do have a mild change of seasons, and I will take heat and humidity over extended cold ice and snow any day (except for a week snowboarding trip). Sub tropical foliage, but also oak tree canopies. Abundant wildlife. Water all around in lakes, and a short drive to the Gulf of Mexico or Atlantic ocean. Diverse community representing a broad array of residents and tourists from around the world.

If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

I think “The City Beautiful” sums it up pretty well.

In 2012, I started the Creative City Project. In the last four years it has grown to an event that has over 1,000 artists and, in 2016, over 20,000 patrons. That’s just not doable most places. It shows the collaborative spirit of our artists and the passion of our residents to discover unexpected arts encounters. When we get out of our houses and share meaningful experiences, it really does display the beauty of our city.

If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Creative. Innovative. Exploratory.

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home? In 1991 I came to Orlando with friends to spend 3 months. I ended up staying for two years and fell in love with the area. I returned to Boston to finish college and take care of family. In 2002 I moved back to Orlando and haven’t left since. When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you? There are so many. I think Ivanhoe Village and Loch Haven Park are part of my soul. We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you? The people. Orlando is a truly diverse melting pot. And there is something magical about Lake Eola.

Resilient. Prideful. Home.

Orlando. Is. Awesome!

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home?

I moved here in 1995 because it was home for Jason (Ross) and Casey (Daniel). We were getting a ton of support from WJRR, and the music scene was bubbling. I bought a house in College Park a few years later – never intending to settle permanently – but in all my travels, nothing compared to Orlando. My bandmates would tease me because every few weeks I had a new favorite city – Austin one week, Nashville the next. Every time we’d come home though, after a couple days of being here, I would realize moving somewhere else would just mean trying to recreate what I love about Orlando. Being able to ride my bike to Publix, a manageable downtown with decent bars and great live music, catching the Magic or now Orlando City Soccer – ten minutes from my front door. And most and best of all, a diverse mix of people.

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

I’m biased about my neighborhood (College Park), but I love the mix. All the “park” neighborhoods – cultural landmarks like The Enzian and The Social, kickass ethnic food – from Cuban to Thai.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty?

All the lakes… and easy access to both coasts. Florida is a beautiful state, and Orlando is smack dab in the middle of it all. And of course every month the cover of Axis is a testament to the other aspects of physical beauty that our city has to offer…

Gert Garman

I came to Orlando to attend UCF and after graduating did a brief stint in Tampa, but I realized that this was where I belong.

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

The people – wherever they gather. Although we have a lot of people who come and go, there is a rich history here with families who have been here for a long time. I also like how diverse our community is – it just adds to the robust nature of our City. It’s awesome!

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you?

Lake Eola is iconic, of course, almost like it’s the heartbeat of the City. And, I think any of the waterfronts are just amazing. I live in College Park and my dog and I take walks down to the lakes where it’s inspiring to see the old trees with moss hanging from them blowing in the breeze. We are called “The City Beautiful” for a reason.

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you?

Again, going back to the people. I feel that Orlando is inclusive. You can be yourself and you’ll be accepted by the community. We have some serious characters in O’town (I count myself among that group!) and people just accept and embrace your uniqueness. It’s okay to be quirky and you don’t find that in many places.

If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Rare. Enveloping. Vibrant.

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home?

My family moved to Central Florida when I was a child so I grew up here. I started working downtown when I was 16.

Jason Lambert

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

I live in College Park so being part of that neighborhood community and raising my family here defines home to me. I love going to the soccer fields on Saturday mornings and seeing our friends and neighbors as our children play.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty?

The areas that define the beauty to me are the different communities around the city. I live in College Park and enjoy the numerous events that we have locally but love taking my family downtown and to an Orlando City Soccer Game or to Winter Park for the festivities on Park Ave, or to Lake Eola, or to the theme parks…..etc.

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you?

Having worked in the hospitality business and now associated with it while working for Yuengling, I am always amazed at how that community continues to be so generous with money, time, and support for the community. The hospitality industry is such a driving force in this city and it truly is the people involved that make it happen.

XL 106.7 is what brought me to Orlando. My goal was to stay here about 4 years and move up to bigger markets. When the offers came to move, I realized that I had fallen in love with the city. 26 years later and the love affair is still going strong. The people, the different cultures and access to the beaches are the best

When you think of the true definition of the word ‘home’ what parts of this city really represent that to you?

I have met some amazing friends here. I met my wife here in Orlando. This city shows me so much love that I can’t help but call in home and try to give back even more.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty? What defines the beauty to me is a couple of things. I lived in downtown Orlando for about 10 years and watching it grow has been beautiful to watch. Now that I live in the Dr. Phillips/Windermere area, I love all the restaurants and bars that fits every mood. You can’t help but love it here.

If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Friendly. Caring. United.

Kyle Isreal

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home?

I was born and raised in East Orlando. My grandfather relocated here in 1963 to work for, a then rapidly growing Martin Marietta (Lockheed Martin). I grew up on Dean road, graduated from University High School, and continued on to play football for and become an alumni of, UCF.

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

For me UCF is so close to my heart and had a huge impact on my life. So UCF is number one. I also think of the Conway part of town as both of my sets of grandparents lived in that area for many years and almost all of my aunts and uncles went to Boone, and my father went to Colonial. That part of town was a huge part of my childhood. Downtown Orlando also strongly represents home to me. I lived downtown once I graduated for a number of years in 55 West. I owned my first business in downtown Orlando (Terrace 390) and during my four years of playing professional football in Europe (‘9 ‘13 ‘14 ‘15), I often missed downtown and all that it had to offer, which seems to be expanding by the day.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty?

Rollins College area, Lake Eola, Thornton Park, Butler chain of Lakes, Conway chain of lakes, The entire UCF campus, Mead Gardens.

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you?

The massive strong UCF alumni base that is really starting to make Orlando it’s home, and the excitement that you can feel behind that growth. The idea that you can sit outside in almost any part of the city, and see such a broad range of people and ethnicities that have made Orlando their home.

If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Expansion. Innovation. Underrated.

I moved to Florida in 1992 when I was 22. I wanted to live by the ocean. I first moved to Orlando in 1995 and moved away, then moved back, then moved away again, then finally moved here permanently in 1998. I bought my house in 2001. I’ve lived on both coasts of Florida, but have always ended up back in Orlando. Until recently, I couldn’t really say why, but now I know. Orlando is where I made some of my closest friends and this is where those friends became my family. This is where I met my fiancé and raised three crazy dogs together. This is where I was able to thrive as a small business owner and run some of the best bars and restaurants in town. This is where I learned about the arts and theatre and truly spectacular culture that has sprung up here over the years. Orlando accepted me and embraced me like family. Orlando will always be home.

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

The downtown skyline. I remember when it was just the Sun Trust and the Bank of America buildings and it was really a cool little city then, but after living here for 18 years, I’ve seen that skyline change. It’s just like your family; it starts out small and grows over time. There’s parts that frustrate you and excite you, but at the end of the day, it’s still home.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you? Lake Eola, Ivanhoe Village, Thornton Park, Mills50, College Park, the DPAC, Loch Haven, all the parks and the lakes, this list could go on for days!

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you?

The feeling of acceptance and inclusion. i was lucky enough to have experienced and worked at Yab Yum (Kit Kat, Harold and Maudes, The Go Lounge, The Globe) in my late 20’s in downtown Orlando. Everyone was welcome it didn’t matter the color of your skin, your sexual preference or gender identity, your views on faith and religion, whether you were wearing a new suit or the same clothes from last night. Everyone was accepted. I learned that in downtown Orlando and I try to pass along that belief in to all my businesses and to all my employees, who are a big part of my family.

Having owned a business and worked in Downtown Orlando for the past 12 years this is the area next to my actual home that represents “Home” to me. We are such a friendly and welcoming community in Downtown and it’s most likely if you walk more than 2 blocks you will run into someone you know!

I moved to Orlando in 2001 to help start up a new alternative radio station. This was my 1st BIG long distance move in radio and I knew nothing about Orlando, except the theme parks. After living here for a year, I fell in LOVE with the city and when I bragged about living in Orlando - it def was not all about the theme parks. This city is unbelievable and that’s why I am still here after 15 years, moved half of my family from Texas and have decided to grow my own family here too.

Scott Maxwell

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

What is amazing about this city is that you can find “home” in so many different places, people, and things. For example: I have my home-home, I have a home at iHeartMedia, you can often find me at my Finnhenry’s home, and I will always have a home whenever my LGBT sisters and brothers are... To name a few. Your turn.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty?

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you?

The intangible beauty is what happened after the events on June 12th at Pulse Nightclub. This community exudes unconditional and undeniable love and pride, and our resilience continues to be proven everyday to the entire world. We are Orlando strong and it’s the most beautiful thing.

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home?

I left New England 20 years ago to find a new adventure and a new place to make my mark. I love New England and will return someday but needed to establish my own sense of place and belonging. Orlando was a young city when compared to Boston and seemed to be just getting its arts legs, I felt like it was the perfect opportunity for me to get in on the ground floor and make a difference.

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

No place in particular, it really is about the dear friends I have hear that makes this home.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty?

I think our lakes are my favorite tangible element that make Orlando beautiful. I love Lake Eola as an example of a beautiful gathering space for our community that helps connect us. I also love the beautiful live oaks that shade our brick streets and the annual blossoms of the Yellow Tabebuia trees.

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you?

Honestly it’s about the friends I have made here that make Orlando home. I really didn’t realize that until the nightmare that occurred on June 12, 2016. Whenever people would ask me I would always say I am from Boston. However, immediately after this event, I had this incredible sense of belonging and connectedness. I realized that Orlando had imprinted itself on me and I couldn’t imagine being anywhere else. This feeling has been solidified by the amazing response by this entire community. I have never been more proud to be an Orlando resident. The residents, churches, police and fire, our city government and our local support service providers have really been amazing through all of this. In addition, I have been blown away by the outpouring of love and support from the arts and cultural community. So many local artists have helped families through the healing process by sharing their passion for the arts and giving a voice to the pain many are feeling. All of this helps define the City of Orlando’s beauty.

If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

In 2004 my husband was relocated by his company. We really had no idea what to expect and only knew that we were moving to the Sunshine State. Little did we know that the sunshine was only part of the charm.

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

Ok just looked up the true definition of the word ‘Home’ and it stated ‘the place where one lives permanently, especially as a member of a family or household’ . That is interesting because although I have lived in 7 states during my lifetime, I think of Winter Park as my home. It’s as if I’ve never truly lived anywhere else. I don’t know why that is, but I suspect that many other Orlandoans feel the same. I think it’s because we have had everything here...the perfect community, the perfect weather and the perfect place to raise our family.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty?

I adore the lakes! We have over 100 lakes in Orlando ...in one city! That’s incredible to me.

The real beauty here is in the people. We have always seen that, but the tragic events of the past 2 weeks have shown that to the world. We are a community of open minds and open hearts. That is a beautiful thing.

The diversity.

Another cool thing: Every Thanksgiving I compile a column called “101 Things to Love About Central Florida.” When I ask readers for suggestions, sometimes they offer more than 1,000. That’s pretty impressive.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty? Orlando has so much outdoor space, from Lake Eola Park with the iconic Fountain and sculptures surrounding it...to the lively patios of your favorite bar or restaurant during Happy Hour or brunch...to just sitting on your own porch on a cool (but not cold!) night in December.

The community of people I have gotten to know here. I have never known so many people, and such a diverse cross-section of people in my entire life. Artists, politicians, businessowners, theme-park performers, I’m astounded at times at all the people I have some connection to in Orlando. It must be home.

I lived in Delaney Park when I first moved here and used to jog around Lake Cherokee and Lake Davis, admiring the beautiful houses and the skyline above the old oak canopies. I always take people to Thornton Park. No one realizes Orlando is a place of lovely small lakes, parks, brick streets and oak trees.

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you?

The people and the spirit... the creativity. When I moved here, it was exciting, but I think Orlando was in this wannabe-Miamiphase. The population and real estate prices were skyrocketing. High-end condos, trendy restaurants and ‘ultra-lounges’ were going up everywhere. We were sure Orlando was going to be the ‘next big thing.’ When the real estate bubble burst, people lost jobs, ‘big money’ pulled out of Orlando, and people got creative. We witnessed a real, organic renaissance, bubbling from the ground up. A new entrepreneurial and creative spirit was born, and it wasn’t manufactured like so many people think Orlando is. It’s real, and it’s continued and grown ever since. Ordinary residents with big ideas are doing really interesting things in art, food, drink and culture. Orlando seems to have stopped wanting to be bigger and more sophisticated than it is, and has become really comfortable in it’s own skin, doing it’s own thing, being the best Orlando we can be, for ourselves and for each other.

If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Beautiful. Creative. Community.

Home is having the people you care about close by to enjoy your City with you. Home is where we are the locals who know the City inside out. Home is knowing all the tourist spots that your out of town cousins have to check out, plus the out of the way places, and the best kept secrets that only you can show them.

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you? The people and the future. The people that I grew up with in Orlando care about this City as much as anyone in any part of the world and we work to make it better. Our City is still growing and becoming so much more every year. Our City is not stuck in outdated ways of thinking or doing things. Our story in Orlando is still being written. If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

The. City. Beautiful!

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home?

Moving to Florida in 1990, I did not start understanding the idea of “home” until I left the surrounding areas and moved to house on Concord in ’96. I fell in love with downtown Orlando right away. In 2002 I opened my first downtown location “Room 3 Nine”. That moment was most likely what planted my feet in Orlando. Getting to know other business owners and community leaders drove me to open more businesses and get involved in the community. Orlando has so many residents that came from other areas of the world. I think that is the common thread for a lot of us. We chose to make this our home and with that we got this amazing diversity.

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

Buying a house 17 years ago in Colonialtown North makes that section of Orlando an obvious area that is home to me. It is so great to see the new growth there but the Thornton Park District is definitely my second home. Me and my partner started opening bars and restaurants in TPD very early. It has been exciting to be a part of that area transform.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty?

There is no question that the fountain at lake Eola and the park represent the City Beautiful. The recent sculptures around downtown and the wall murals that have popped up in the Mills-50 area have been a great addition to our city.

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you?

What I have experienced in Orlando and why I choose to live here is the intangible beauty out weigh the actual parks, neighborhoods or buildings. The sense of community and love that people have for each other here is what makes this city great. I had known this before the recent tragedy and was not surprised at all how the city unified so quickly. It’s who we are.

If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Diversity. Unity. Growth.

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home?

Terry Olsen

Disney saw the theatre troupe we had started, SAK, and asked us to come for the opening months of EPCOT Center. We figured this was a good place to settle because of the nice weather. What we found is that this cross-roads of the world was full of world-class thinking and creating and that it was open to anyone and full of opportunity.

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

The arts. The fact that over 60 groups would come together within two weeks to put on a visual and performing arts response to the “Beautiful Together: A Journey toward Hope” event last Tuesday at the Dr. Phillips Center, is because our arts community talks to each other and already have a foundation of trust and collaboration. That really is beautiful!

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty?

People caring about each other and loving each other – even when its tough. That’s pretty tangible, but as far as “physical” I’d have to say the crepe myrtles and flowering trees and the lakes. Well also some of the architecture. And the sunsets. And the big oaks.

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you? Feeling like I can participate in the city if I’d like to.

If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Innovative. Determined. Fun.

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home?

I grew up nearby in Volusia County but came to Orlando to study at UCF.

Alex Fackler

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

To me “Home” is where your closest friends & family gather. Also brings along the responsibility for maintaining a safe, clean and welcoming environment. Orlando has so many pockets of sub-communities that fit that build. To me, those in our community who take pride in where they live, work, eat, and play are what represents home.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty?

Some of the beautiful places to me are the jogging path around Lake Underhill, the view from One80 Skytop Lounge (Amway Center) after an Orlando Magic win, Memory Mall at UCF on a gameday and of course Lake Eola on the 4th of July.

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you?

the unity of assisting neighbors after severe weather, diversity of fan support for local teams (every race, age, religion, income level, locals/tourists)

If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Contemporary. Diverse. Unified.

Vicki Ababouch

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home?

I moved to Orlando when I was 19. I’ve been fortunate enough to have grown up in a country and family that is accepting and offers a simple and stable life within a community.

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

I believe the true definition of the word ‘home’ is life. Home is the place you’ve grown and gone through the motions of life. This city has seen the best and worst of my days. I feel a connection to the schools I’ve attended such as UCF to the places that I’ve worked all around town and Downtown Orlando specifically.

We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty?

Tangible areas such as Winter Park exemplify what The City Beautiful means to me, it’s an easy going area with hidden gems that has more to offer than the status quo.

What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you?

The intangibles are simply the experiences, the runs around Lake Eola or Brunch’s at the Red Mug, Avenue Gastrobar and Downtown venues!

If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Stable. Strong. Lovely.

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home? In TV news, you have to pick up and go if you get “the call,” whether it’s Fargo, ND or Sri Lanka. I was working in New York and craved palm trees, puppies, and rainbows for my next stop. By the grace of God, News 13 liked something about my resume tape, and The City Beautiful has been my home for 9 years. I can’t imagine any “call” that’ll get me to leave. When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you? “Home” is being able to establish routines; ones that I miss when I’m away. It’s knowing I get to squeeze my husband 6 hours after lunch time. It’s seeing the same ducks on the bank of the lake during my morning run. It’s when owners of a few restaurants become family and almost expect us to show up on certain nights. It’s feeling like we “own” the streets because we know a little too much about the tenants, and the pattern of the traffic lights. “Home” is having pockets of families sprinkled throughout the City – people who may not know each other, but are family-forever to me and my Ted. We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you? I love blue jays. Seeing one is almost spiritual to me – like a sign of something. Getting to see one around Lake Ivanhoe before the wind angers the water in the morning, or encountering one on our sunset walk to happy hour – is magical. I am also wildly obsessed about the tropical-like, meticulously manicured pathway on the river side of the Hard Rock Hotel. The gardens epitomize Orlando’s ability to spawn lush, healthful, and nourished landscapes – views that actually have a healing property. What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you? One love. I’d like to challenge any other city in this galaxy to prove a stronger sense of unity, compassion, and selflessness. This city has so many rich forms of interests, art and entertainment – some that are eccentric or nonconventional, and others are more mainstream. Whatever it is, I love watching my neighbors take time out to lend support by trying out a new experience, show, taste, etc. The fact that we all have individual passions and obsessions and feel totally free to express them – just rocks. If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

This Is Us.

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home? I’m an Orlando native. Both sides of my family are third-generation Orlando residents. I was born and raised in College Park and have lived in College Park or Thornton Park my entire life. After college, I looked at living other places, but Orlando was home and I felt like I could make a difference here. I could see that Orlando was emerging as a city with a chance to chart its own course and it was exciting to think I could be a part of it.

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

Home is where I live, but also where I work and play. To me, it is Downtown Orlando. I live in Thornton Park and work in the North Quarter. The sports, arts, culture, parks and restaurants of downtown are what make it home. It is really driven by the diversity and independent, unique and local character of things. We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you? The Plaza at the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, Lake Eola, Lake Adair and Lake Davis. What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you? Diversity, inclusion, acceptance. Excitement about the future. We are growing up as a city right before eyes. If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Promise. Potential. Passion.

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home? Thank God my parents had enough sense to bring me to O-town from northern Michigan when I was twelve . I’ve had the honor of watching it grow in to the most beautiful city since arriving over 29 years ago. My husband and I have so much pride in this city, always have and most definitely always will. We are so much more than just theme parks and tourists, we are families and communities with culture, great food and amazing things to do every single day. When tragedy struck, I unfortunately was out of town. All I wanted to do was get HOME, home to ORLANDO, my home, my husband and daughter’s home, my friend’s home. I’ve never experienced such a longing to get back home as I experienced that awful day. When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you? Downtown and the surrounding areas. I currently live in College Park and wouldn’t change it for anything! I love being able to walk and bike everywhere and my favorite sight to stop and pause is at Lake Ivanhoe where you get the most amazing view of the city skyline. We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty to you? Our growing skyline at dawn, our beautiful Lake Eola, all the amazing oak trees that line our city streets, Our amazing culture venues from the Dr. Phillips center to Loch Haven Park venues that all promote and welcome creativity from all walks of life What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you? The diversity and spirit of the people. If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Vibrant. Accepting. Beautiful.

How did you come about making and calling Orlando your home? I didn’t know a thing about Orlando before I came here for college, but I fell in love with the downtown life immediately. For almost 20 years I’ve barely thought about leaving. Why go live in a big city with people who don’t want to know each other? Orlando has always had this open door vibe that begins and ends with people who are genuinely nice, real, and tolerant. (We obviously have our bad seeds and d-bags, but the good far outweighs the bad.)

When you think of the true definition of the word home, what aspects of this city really represent that to you?

I love the bond within neighborhoods. I’ve lived in Thornton Park, College Park, Eola Heights, and now Delaney Park, and people care about each other. They look out for each other. And through that we’ve been fortunate to see local businesses open and thrive, especially restaurants that add personality and charm to a city that has been long defined by chains and fast food joints. It’s like a cultural revolution that won’t stop. Have you had the donuts at Valhalla, by the way? They’re basically the greatest thing in Orlando. We are The City Beautiful… what tangible areas of Orlando define that beauty? Becoming a dad has changed me and made me such a corny Norman Rockwell idealist, and so my favorite spot has become Delaney Park. It’s just such a perfect little park that is packed with energy and youth and all that is good about Orlando. Just going to my niece’s tee ball games and seeing how happy and friendly everyone is makes me swell with pride. And then I have a few donuts from Valhalla and my waistline swells, but it’s worth it. What intangibles about Orlando define that beauty to you? I love the fact that even when people make fun of this city or they mock “Florida Man,” we know we are better than that stereotype and we know we are better than those people. And we prove it by making this city better and better. Our resilience is astounding. If you could use three words to describe this city, what would they be?

Heart For Miles.
