First time visiting Orlando and the US — any advice?
Hi everyone!
A little about me: I'm 28 years old, from Spain, and I'll be staying in Orlando for roughly a month for a work project.
Since it will be my first time visiting both Florida and the United States, I wanted to ask for some advice from locals and people familiar with the area.
To be honest, I'm a little nervous about it. It's a long way from home, and I'll be traveling completely on my own, so I'd really appreciate any tips, warnings, or things you think a newcomer should know before arriving.
Some things I'd love to hear about:
Things that might surprise a visitor from Europe.
Safety tips and areas I should avoid.
Transportation advice (public transport, Uber, renting a car, etc.).
Weather recommendations, especially during summer.
Cultural differences and everyday etiquette.
Good local restaurants or foods I should try.
Places worth visiting on weekends.
Common mistakes tourists or newcomers make in Orlando.
Thanks in advance!
