Savannah Earns Her Ears: My Secret Walt Disney World Cast Member Diary (Earning Your Ears) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798896092797)

Going International

Savannah Taider, a student living in Belgium, wanted nothing more than to work at Walt Disney World. She was obsessed with it, in fact. She tried and failed, tried and failed. Most would have given up. Savannah isn't most. She tried again...

Disney's International Program is like its college program, except that Disney recruits students from outside the United States to work in its parks. Given the competition, and the limited slots available, it's much harder to get accepted into the international program than it is the college program.

Savannah found that out, the hard way. She chronicles these travails, followed by the scintillant moment of acceptance, her journey to Orlando, the usual ups and downs of meeting roommates, the Traditions class at Disney University, and cast member training, and then her first day on duty, in Disney Springs.

In her secret cast member diary, Savannah puts a European spin on what it's like to live and work at Walt Disney World, as she overcomes unique challenges and offers a glimpse into the "backstage" world that most guests never see.

If you've ever wondered what it would be like not just to visit a Disney theme park but to work in one, the "Earning Your Ears" series is your E-ticket!
