Many Hawaiian Islanders have what I call a “passive schadenfreude” which is to say we take pleasure in knowing we live in the greatest place on earth while others don’t. It’s kinda like a local version of the the social media “I’m-here-having-this-great-time-and-you’re-not” photo game that people play. Our local girl Aina wrote up 3 of the first things that come to her mind about what people envy about Hawaii.
About the Author: Peter Kay
I’ve lived Hawaii since the mid ‘80s when I moved here at the age of 21. I arrived site-unseen in Honolulu with zero contacts and about $5k in savings. I worked from nearly zero and today Hawaii has given me the greatest gifts in the world in all aspects: spiritually, financially, romantically (married since early ‘90s w/ 2 children), and most important, peace. My goal with this site is to share the magic of this Land of Aloha and help others who are on a similar quest.
