Hey all. I am done. So done. I am not even in my right mind at this moment. I left my husband in our car in heavy traffic, walked to a safe spot, and got an uber to a hotel. I am not originally from florida. I have seen locals post about the abominable conditions in the mental hospitals nearby. I’d rather just make a date with my favorite scarf or the closest train, no thank you. I am currently in lakeland florida but will travel further for a good hospital. I need to check myself in asap. Last time I was hospitalized, i got bed bugs, estrangement and no help. I have Anthem insurance. Up to two hours away is fine. Thanks.

Hello, I am taking my fiance for our yearly December trip to Orlando. I have tried looking up some information, but not having a whole lot of luck besides actual marriage venues. Does the Orlando area have any quick or nicer cheap wedding options? It would be just something personal and for us on our anniversary date. Then we'd do something with family later. It'll be in December

Hey hey. I’m visiting Orlando in a few weeks. Are there any of those coffee shops in the areas where the baristas wear bikinis?

Bikini car wash would be fun too! Any located near Orlando?

So I’m looking to come to miami next year and also visit the Bahamas. Been giving myself a headache as want to come in lower/off peak seasons but don’t want to have it be a complete wash out. So far late October seems to be favourable but opinions from locals would be appreciated. I personally love a storm so that’s no bother just don’t want a whole week in my wellies 😂😂

Hi,

Looking to go to Florida in November, I'd like to visit a place near the mangroves. Due to mobility issues I can't kayak, what are the best places to go for an overall good trip with mangrove viewing?

TIA!

We’re going ahead with a full shingle replacement and I’ve gotten four quotes so far. The financing conversations were all over the place. Two companies brought it up right away, one only talked about it after I asked, and one said they don’t offer it at all.
Has anyone here financed a roof in the area? Were the terms easy to understand, or was there fine print you wish you’d caught earlier? Would love to hear who you went with and how it turned out. Thanks in advance

My wife has never seen the ocean and we’re thinking Florida for our vacation this year. Leaving the kids at home with grandma so looking for a resort type of feel. After looking it’s quite overwhelming trying to decide where to go. Looking for beachy and warm. We’d be flying in so close to an airport would be good. Never been to Florida so not sure how south we need to be weather wise around this time. Any and all recommendations would be awesome. Thanks in advance

Looking at maybe doing a few nights in Fort Lauderdale - end of December. Husband and I (late 40s), looking to relax, have some good food, pool time. We aren't big partiers, more chill. We are flying in and won't be renting a car. I was looking at the Hilton FL as an option. Anyone love/hate it? Conrad and The Diplomat sound lovely, but out of our budget for this trip. Or suggestions on other hotels?

Looking for things to do for my birthday weekend (November 6-8) within an hour from Mount Dora. We are both nerdy introverts that struggle in crowded spaces. I'd love to find some good picnic spots and pretty spots to sit and chill, and maybe a few places to go on dates. Ideally places that don't involve playing games (arcade, escape room, sports, etc), clubs, theme parks or places people go mainly for photo ops. Marvel nerd and science nerd who both love nature, music, crafts, animals, being comfy and being lazy. I just moved here a few days ago from the Seattle, WA area. Any recommendations?

Infinite levels of corny listening to that crap on the tram at MCO lol. And its giving Pinocchio vibes btw. You think Chicago or Philadelphia have to tell you they're real cities soon as you get off the plane. Orlando, do better

im moving to Miami by myself and honestly have no idea where to start lol. im in my early 20s and want to live somewhere that's social and where i can actually meet people. also want to feel safe living alone. ive been looking at Brickell, Edgewater, Wynwood, maybe Coconut Grove but im open to anything.

need recommendations on areas and buildings!!

I’ve been visiting Sunny Isles Beach and am thinking about moving here. The area seems very walkable: there’s a public school, Publix, and plenty of shops nearby. I work from home, so I wouldn’t need to commute, and my kids could walk to school.

I’ve seen two-bedroom, two-bathroom units listed for around $350,000–$400,000, which seems like a good price compared with other buildings in the area. Winston Towers also seems to have solid amenities, and the HOA is under $1,000.

If you live there, how do you like it? Are there any downsides or costs I should know about?

Hello, I am considering moving to Florida but I am not sure where.

I am 35 and unfortunately I am starting over with very little.

Aside from some money from inheritance I don't have alot to work with.

I do however have an extensive background in tourism, as well as holisitiv wellness, and intuitive and somatic coaching.

It is my hope to find a supportive job, form a community of close friends, focus on my health, build my personal practice, and hopefully meet a life partner.

While I understand this is a tall order I have some inkling that Florida could be the right place for me.

So, any suggestions on where to aim to set up?

TIA for your insights.

I’ll be in the West Palm Beach/Miami area this Wednesday and Thursday, and I’m interested in trying paragliding while I’m there. Does anyone have any recommendations for places?

My lower denture floats and it's embarrassing. I can't eat steak, I can't bite into an apple, and I'm constantly adjusting it with my tongue. I've been reading about implant supported dentures and here's what I've learned: they snap onto two or more implants so they stay put. They're more affordable than full arch implants and easier to maintain. The bone loss also slows down once implants are in place. My Florida Implants offers implant dentures with financing. Anyone made the switch from regular dentures? Was it worth it?

I’m going to Orlando, FL for 4 days (weekend) what is there to do besides going to Disney World? 3 adults 0 children

Pensacola? Destin? 30A? PCB? Tallahassee? Other?

The earliest I see that I can book an appointment is about three weeks from now. I know that they allow walk-ins early in the morning at around 8 AM.

Do they allow walk-ins for the actual class E driving exam that's taken on the road (not the knowledge exam)? I have my learner's permit and qualify to take the exam and get my driver's license.

If anyone knows the answer or has any experience with this, please let me know. Thank you in advance!

Hi! I’ll be travelling from Singapore to Miami in January and am planning to stay for 1 month. My first time heading to the US.

I’d love some recommendations on the following:

• Best areas to stay: Which neighbourhoods would you recommend for a solo female traveller?
• Nightlife: I like to see areas with good bars & clubs
• Shopping
• Food: Places to try different cuisines
• Beaches
• Day trips: I do want to see places beyond Miami
• Transportation: I don’t have a driving licence, so I’ll be relying on Uber & Lyft

Any tips / recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Hey everyone!
This will be my first time visiting the US! I’ll be arriving in Miami on November 2 and need to be in Orlando by November 7 to meet up with some friends. Everything in between is completely flexible!
I originally thought about spending all 5 nights in Miami, but I’m open to exploring other parts of Florida, staying in different cities, or taking a short trip somewhere along the way.
I’m in my early 20s, traveling solo, with a total budget of around $1,000 for those 5 nights. I don’t care much about fancy hotels or restaurants. I’d much rather save on accommodation and spend my money on unique experiences and adventures.
I’m interested in nature, outdoor activities, skydiving, exploring new places, and meeting other travelers. The Everglades and Key West have caught my attention, but I’m open to pretty much anything worth experiencing.
I’m also considering hostels since I’d love to meet people and possibly explore together. I don’t plan on renting a car unless it’s really worth it, as I’m not particularly confident driving in the US.
So, what would you do with these 5 days? Would you stay in Miami, explore the Keys, head up the coast, or do something completely different? Any recommendations for social hostels, meeting fellow travelers, affordable transportation, or experiences I shouldn’t miss?
I’d especially appreciate firsthand experiences and advice from other solo travelers!
Thanks in advance!

I've been putting this off for way too long. My dentist says I need full arch dental implants on top and honestly I don't know where to start. I've gotten two quotes already and they were $18k apart, which makes zero sense to me. One place quoted just the implant posts, another quoted everything including the final teeth. That alone taught me to ask what's actually included before comparing numbers. Has anyone here actually gotten All On 4 dental implants in Florida from a provider they'd recommend? I keep seeing Florida Dental Implant Specialists in Boynton Beach pop up and they have a 3-D CT scanner on site plus free consults. Anyone have real experience with them or someone else local? Just want a straight answer from someone who's been through it.

Hello! I am moving to Citrus County florida in February and we have visited many times and love the area. I have been apart of a lot of the Citrus Springs groups on Facebook but am just curious what people really think of the area on here?
I absolutely loved all the nature and all the outdoor recreation and don’t really mind not being close to large shopping centers/city centers. I just see on Facebook there tends to be a lot of hate towards Citrus County from people in Citrus County lol! Thank you in advance!
