Interesting video! You're obviously a very good salesman. I live on Molokai. This, too, is a wonderful place. Homes are cheaper here. Food prices and anything else that's brought in from off island (via Young Brothers and/or Kamaka) costs more money than elsewhere in Hawaii. But Molokai No Ka Oi! Andy McKane, Maunaloa, Hawaii.

I would like to have macadamia nuts at those prices. A little can on the mainland is twice that, and having been in Hawaii, I have to get Hawaiian macadamia nuts. I'm not getting Planters. I never see Kona coffee in my area, having only seen a couple of places serve it. I used to hear "flip-flops" all the time, but then I was on post and hearing it from non-locals. For many years, I thought you could only see Molokai from Oahu.

Was on Waikiki first week of June. Going back in November. Great place to live part time if you can get out once in a while. Live half the year there and live in California the other half is ideal. I’m from the Philippines now living in Rancho Cucamonga. Went back in 1995 for 5 years, and it was great first 6 months. But after that I felt confined. That taught me. So half year is enough. Hawaii is great and I didn’t not have to visit the Philippines when I get homesick. It’s 10 hours closer.

Thanks Derek, this was a great video. I think drone shots are great for general perspective, but they can easily be used too often which makes it easier for viewers to lose focus…there are lots of 4K KZfaq drone channels of Hawaii and they’re all boring. I know that I prefer that you continue do what your mostly doing, which is simply chatting about the neighborhoods from a “local’s” view. I wish I could move to Hawaii faster than I’m planned to but thanks again for the videos…

Aloha Derek, we’ve got a question. The view is important to us. We love a “real” sunset view where you can see the sun setting over the horizon. Kinda like what you get at Sunset Beach and Waimea Beach near Haleiwa. Is there any spot near Hawaii Kai or Kailua where you can that view…? Essentially spots on the east side of Honolulu that have a kick ass west facing view? Mahalo. :)

One of the cons of moving to Hawaii that I actually took into consideration was that a lot of my Asian brothers showing up on these Hawaii videos looked shrunk up in their shirts. I don't know if it was because men like a roomier shirt there, but with the tan and sometimes bad haircuts, it looked like the islands dry up Asians like raisins. I was starting to think maybe people can't afford the calories that we get on the mainland, because of a higher cost of living in Hawaii. Seeing you look properly filled out makes me think I can pull that negative from the ledger.
