    Just realized you changed your youtube name, love it. Been watching your channel for a while, and I'm hoping to visit the Big Island to convince my boyfriend to move their, but until then I just play your videos really loud so that he can't run from the information. Thanks for all your videos!

    Wow. Lots of useful info. You should write it down, add maps and publish book. I am using Google Earth while listening :)

    Thanks JJ. What island would be best for buying land and building an off grid homestead to get away and prepare for the up- coming economic collapse?

      Curious if you ever bought land there? I'd love to live off the grid too, but unfortunately it's extremely expensive to get good land, even on the mainland.

    kauai was way more crowded this last trip than it was my previous trips in 2014 and 2015. I was surprised actually at his much it had changed in 2 years.

    I really like Kauai, but except for the few really high end restaurants, it is hard to find decent food on Kauai.
    Other than you being more polite about the Kauai food scene than you needed to be, this is a good and accurate video.

    Can't wait to go to Kauai end of March beginning of April!!! My husband and my first time to Hawaii!!! Fits our style perfectly and our price range. We were looking at Maui and Kauai I found that Maui was like double the price then Maui for hotels.We are staying a 5 min drive to Poipu beach!! Can't wait to go!

    What’s up Jeff. Your videos are very informative. I have probably watched every video you’ve made about life in Hawaii. I really want to move to Maui but I’m a little apprehensive about moving due to the hurricanes and tsunami’s that Hawaii is effected by. What do you guys do to survive through tsunami’s and hurricanes?

    I realize others probably differ, but I feel that for people like me, Hawaii reviews should begin with and major on BEACHES. While I did enjoy several aspects of the islands, nothing compared with the sublime beaches to be found there. I will never forget the bliss that I experienced visiting the best of those beaches -- on another level from any others I have been to elsewhere in the world.

      I recently went to Kauai (last month) and I have been to maui (18 yrs ago). Kauai’i is better hands down. So much to do and see. Not as touristy as I had experienced in maui. We used the Shaka Guide app and saved money doing the app tour guides instead of wasting time on a tour bus. We did so much hiking and sight seeing. Soooo gorgeous.

      Gabo Prado Depends on where you want to stay and what you want to do. If you have a family and get a suite at a beachfront hotel, expect to pay over $8,000 to $10,000. If you are traveling by yourself and don’t want to stay in a fancy hotel, you would pay close to $3,500.

    • @sarasayshi

      We stayed at an Air B’b in Kauai. It wasn’t exactly on the beach but it was good enough for us. $1400 a week.

    • @marcatkinson5187
      @marcatkinson5187 5 років тому

      Everyone should start on Oahu. It will give you a dose of "Hawaii" , but also provide you with some familiarity (restaurants, the way freeways work, hotels, etc) . Go once, never go again. I've been to three islands, so my opinion is evolving. My particular favorite is Big Island. It is the most undeveloped, has Volcano national park, Akaka falls, Kona, Pahoa, old Hilo.The best snorkelin gand swimming I've been to is big Island also. Stay at Air BnB's.
