Owning a lychee tree is definitely up there for me!

I work outer-islands- Once when we landed in Kauai "Chava" left his truck at the airport for us to use- He said it would be open with the keys in the ignition Great! When we go to the airport parking and found it we called him while going to Hanalei to surf - we thanked him. Also commented on his beautiful Chevy truck- Braddah went say "I no more chevy truck! I get 1 ford! OOPS! so we go back to the airport parking- We find da kine's truck- da real one. I also noticed almost ALL the cars had the keys in the ignitions- Where you gonna take a stolen car on Kauai? There is only one road across the island- I love Kauai!

This is hilarious. I like your impressions. I grew up here in town on Oahu before moving to New York City, and back again. Going away and coming back makes me appreciate hawaii so much more than when I felt stuck as a high schooler here.. relearning/learning new things about hawaii is also great.

I was born and raised on Oahu in Pearl City. My mom is from the island-maui- and my dad is from the mainland and very white. I look like my father, and it wasn’t easy growing up there although I loved it, there were times I was picked on for my skin color, I was the odd looking family member, and always prayed I could have darker skin so I didn’t stand out. When we finally left the island, it was the first time I realized it was ok to be blond and blue eyes. There is no other place like Hawaii. The warmth of the people, the easy lifestyle and above all, the lack of materialism. It’s the one place you’re in the raw, and my experience is materialistic people aren’t admired , but the kind and caring are,

So true! What I loved most about being born and raised in Hawaii was how people respected each others culture and how we treated each other for our character and not status. Also find it interesting how friends react when you always come back to the island, they have so many questions of where you’ve e been. Miss my home but too expensive, I no can afford. Great video!

1200 sf?? no, son - that's a tiny matchbox, a postage stamp sized house: Lilliputian, for sure! and I feel you.🙋🏾‍♀️ because I was raised in [and a few years ago came back to live in] one of the most expensive counties in the lower 48..to be near to my elderly mother..and the only reason that was possible was because after my grandparents were gone my single, meaning *divorced* mother, she sold our house, the one we were raised in very nearby..and then she leveraged her good credit, etc., and bought out her remaining sibling re: our grandparents' house. and via a family discount, I now live in the apartment she had built on our grandparent's property..one she had rented out to one lone tenant for over a decade..but otherwise? NO WAY would I be able to rent or buy here..even working with my RN license..and I mean, sure: I could have 'purchased' [only] a tiny to moderate sized home..but I have NO 'got dam' interest in experiencing that kind of struggle, not even with a husband [b/c it would be a struggle even for 2 working people🤦🏾‍♀️]. and I know when *'that day'* comes, I will NOT be staying in this area..that I'll be taking the money somewhere else..maybe back to the tiny town I lived in..down in the southwest USA..maybe even to another country, which seems more likely every day..and re: not just the money issue but also the current socio-political climate here in the States. and I'll leave it at that re: politics, other than to say that ex-pat uploads take up a LOT of my video watching right now..esp., those re: columbia, ecuador, panama..mexico was on the list some years ago but since I was last there [and it was crazy back then in many places] things have gotten much worse, safety-wise..and locals are saying to stay away for now. but I'm remaining open-minded, as well..about some of the less expensive places in europe, too...because I do like it over there..also considering a short list of places in africa..so, I have a few trips to take...it's a strange time and I have a lot to think about these days. and *not* saying at all that I'm going full Tina Turner [who I adore]..because she gave up her citizenship after she moved to Switzerland..I'm only intending to consider doing what a lot of Americans have done - by maybe moving to a place where our hard earned dollars go much further..and where the quality of life is good and things are, in maybe not all - but in many ways - a bit more healthy and sane..even IF we have to give up a few everyday things to *live* that other kind of Life..because, truthfully, I'm tired.😐

When I go to the US Mainland, and sometimes show my driver's license as ID, I get "Wow? You're from Hawaii? What are you doing _here_?" Or ""You're from Hawaii - why would you ever leave?" Well, you've probably heard "Absence makes the heart grow fonder." Plus, I enjoy going to Europe. I worked 23 years in Hawaii very hard, 40 years total, and was able to retire. Restaurants are interesting - the secret local places - I totally agree with you!

One time my blue eyed, blonde haired daughter was getting taunted by a Filipino kid who told her to go back to the mainland.

Then on another day, a friend we had met in face Book, treated us to a Pilipino restaurant, they served us a soup, which was quiet delicious, But the met that was in it looked like the locknet monster, I said to myself ( I ain't eating this thing )

I remember taking some girls from Kane'ohe to La Mariana's and I surprised they 'd never been (Although in fairness Sand Island is kinda of a dive). The stereo types on private school kids is totally true and still true. The public vs private vs not attention HS in Hawai'i really hurt me socially and career wise more than anything, my work was super cliquey. I went to Cornell, but it was meaningless on O'ahu all the local haoles from Kailua, Kahala where kinda stand off if you didn't go to Punahou, Iolani St. Louis or some such place. Plus I joined the Hawai'i club at Cornell they where all Aloha-nui loa - Ohana-ish but when I got to island they where snotty and cold an ice. The problem with the public schools is vary so tremendously Kaimuki, Kalani on end to Waianae, Nānākuli on other, so they all get stigmatized especially when overflow rooms are made from shipping containers. My biggest education concern is kids go UH for undergrad, master and/or PhD, then become professor in one straight go. It's the only Univ I know of where that's allowed

Now suddenly George Clooney from The Descendent makes a lot of sense.

My first day moving to Oahu from Berkeley, CA (1978), I borrowed my cousin's car to drive around the island. I was invited to a pool party in Kahala from a girl that I went to high school with in Sacramento. Her live in b.f. was good friend's with the Kahala family. So, I returned the car to my cousin, she asked me what I did for the day. Turns out the Kahala house belonged to the majority owner of Aloha Airlines. She worked part time for Aloha Airlines, she was beyond belief where I partied.

HOOO BRAHHH!

Public vs. private school - there are a few really good public schools, but many are not that great. They don't get the support they should, unfortunately. Also, the attitude of the parents is paramount. If your parents think education is a good thing, even if you go to a so-so school, your parents will help you with school. A lot of folks, in Hawaii and on the US Mainland, don't think education is that important. So funny - I went to get my eyes checked in the mid 1990s, and the optometrist gave me a 10% discount because I worked with his sister!

Wow, your state really has multi-generational families living together? Like , you mean-people did in the old days, and some fortunate families still do? (Such as the South or on farms or large homes) That’s a *genuine* advantage, which you don’t even seem to be aware that it *has* value.

Being related to a Hawaiian family that has been rich and/or famous for decades seems to be similar to being listed by the British government as the 25th person in line to receive the throne of England. Did you know that the British government always keeps an updated list of who is genetically eligible to ascend the British throne all the way down past the 50th person in the genetic lineage??!!? I seems to me that they could have stopped the list at 25 but it's not my list.
