- What better way to know what it's like to move to East Hawaii and live there than to ask someone who recently moved to East Hawaii and bought a home? SO, we asked our client Lance Bond, who moved to Hawaiian Paradise Park, to answer some questions that MANY people can benefit from his personal experience. Thanks Lance!

There is an ideal job in Kona I’m going to apply for. We are from Juneau Alaska which is land locked by ice mountains and water essentially making it an island. We visited Honolulu last summer. First time I had been back since I was a 10-year-old kid… And what is strange to me is how many similarities there are between Hawaii and Southeast Alaska, from the water and mountains and beaches to our native cultures. I would imagine the big island having many more similarities to Juneau then say Oahu. We have limited amenities, services, and then there’s island time. Where everything including expectations run just a little bit slower here. Everything is a bit delayed. Housing is a challenge here. And so I would think we would adapt very easily because there’s so many similar parallels to the big island. We are tired of being cold and don’t want to get old here, and are already completely adapted to 75% of the challenges you’re faced with there being separated from the lower 48. And Providence would have it that we’ve already unintentional purged like a hand has been gently guiding us. So we are already traveling very light, Didn’t take anything from both of my parents houses when they passed, And we really never were ideally positioned over the last nine years of being back here from PDX to buy a house in Juneau, partially because we knew for our final chapter we don’t want to commit to be here. When I visited Oahu last summer, something so deeply resonated within my soul on the deepest levels, in the same way that my homeland of Alaska always has. I feel at home there and there’s only two places I’ve ever felt that. Lived in the lower 48 for 16 years in Oregon and Virginia and while the Pacific Northwest felt more like home than Virginia, neither one did it for me long-term. Just not exotic enough for my tastes. I’m used to the grandest of outdoor experiences like being on the edge of no man’s land. Sounds like the big island fits that bill much more so than some of the other islands, space, and a little bit more cost effective. And I would imagine that same feeling can be had there as well. Being able to look in a direction and know that there’s nobody there for thousands of miles does something for the soul that’s very healthy. Living a narrow valley couched between 4000 foot mountains on either side with a glacier at the head in the ocean at the end of the valley is pretty exotic, and I say, let me know the side of a volcano is pretty exotic as well. Sure hope I get that job! Please, for the love of God! 😁

My husband and I visited the island of Hawaii in 2018 and fell in love with it! Thoroughly enjoyed this interview and I’m very happy for this man and his family.
Thank you for this video. And thank you to your guest. Ladies, the more I travel back-and-forth to the big island the more I learn the culture but I haven’t learned at all. I’m still used to the mainland in Los Angeles. When I fly Hawaiian airlines to the big island and then we get in HPP I’m so happy and relax and yes you guys mentioned the Couki frog 🐸 I love those little things. I never snore when I hear them at night time. They don’t bother me at all. Well, thank you for this video and to your guest. This is your subscriber on the West Coast Los Angeles but cannot wait to get back to the big island and we are near Paradise and 11th St.
Great video and I can totally relate with his dream. Hope we can do the same soon. Love the Big Island! Thanks!
All I can say to all who move here from the mainland…..
“Don’t CHANGE the culture….”
“ADJUST to it…..”
One big word….. RESPECT. Less is more…..
Money won’t get you anywhere with the locals.
This was excellent! It is refreshing and very helpful to hear directly from new residents and their moving experiences. It would be wonderful to view more like this!!!
This was so helpful! My partner and I are looking to move to the Big Island within a couple of years and these videos are an incredible resources. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! Let us know if you want to be placed on a listing alert when the time comes!
Enjoyed the video really great to see someone who made the move.
Hi Julie. Great Channel and helpful interview. Subscribed. I will be bringing my wife to BI/East Side in early January to see how she likes it. I grew up on Oahu as a kid. You are doing a great job on your YT.
Thank you very much, Amber and Julie, for the amazing video!
Great video of needed information.
You always have such good informative videos 😊😊
I'd love to know how old Lance's daughter is and how his daughter finds living in HPP.
People from mainland assuming getting away from snow. But East Hawaii always raining, some thunder and lightning. Cost of living in Hawaii high.😂🤷♂️
Forgot to mention the insane amount of crime that is committed in the Puna district. And the fact that there are more registered sex offenders there than anywhere in the state!
