  • In October 2019, we enjoyed a week-long Hawaii vacation on the Big Island. This was not our first visit, but we did bring some family members to experience the island for the first time. Please enjoy this Hawaii travel vlog that is also full of tips and ideas for things to do on the Big Island. This is a compilation of 10 individual episodes, plus some unpublished bonus footage.

    Great video! I haven’t been back to the Big Island in forever and I’m down the block on Oahu. Even though you weren’t able to get up to Mauna Kea I thought that was a great opportunity to cover the protest. Hope next time you come you get to get up there. Great job Martin on the handheld shot! Looked clean and sharp. Great camera tips and techniques you guys shared too. Quick questions. What camera straps or carry systems do you guys use while traveling? What lenses do you find most useful on trips? Mahalo!

      Black Rapid R-Straps have been our favorites for years, but lately we also like the Peak Design wrist strap + Cotton Carrier strap when using hiking bags. Mid-range lenses are our favorite for travel -- the 18-55 for Fuji is what we use 90% of the time.

    As a kanaka ma’oli the story you speak of Captain Cook is one that is not often told from a native perspective.
    As you idolize him know that the reason he was killed was like of the Aztec conquest and the Spanish conquest
    to gold. When we were “Supposedly Discovered”? he and his navigation crew raped and killed our poe or
    People. In less then 100 years after his arrival extinction occurred on all islands to birds and mamals and
    life you can no longer see but in a book. Our people were killed off from diseases we had no immunity at
    all from. 1,000,000 hawaiians Genocided by the EUROPEAN CONQUEST for discovery diseases of all types
    which ravaged our people and land that was STOLEN.
    Russia was to be ally to our monarchy like the czars but that never occured both were killed off or the
    exile for some. On Kauai today there is a Russian fort please know I appreciate this video but know
    the history of our people understand what has occured. And when you visit hawaii for the
    Paradise you and others assume there is a dark history to it - Aloha
