I just found out my neighbor is from Marshall Islands! I gave him a pint of blueberries the other day, and today he gave me some chocolate covered macadamia nuts, lol. Nice dude, super friendly and yes, LOVES to laugh!

I know these guys, Taylor and McComie. I served with them in the Marshall Islands in 2011 to 2013. What they say is true. It was such a great place to live.

Everyone does go to church regularly. And a "pick me up" basketball game draws a crowd. Not much else to do. Internet is slow and expensive ($0.10/min). I go there regularly for business reasons for the last 40 years (I live in Guam) and have not noticed any changes in high water marks. He is right about one thing though. The people are great.

I knew plenty marshallese in big island in Hawaii. I was once invited over for dinner. I have a new appreciation for what they did for me. Those were amazing pork chops

A fermented breadfruit base that was not wash in sea water and fresh water result in having that stinky smell. So it was eating during famine time and also it is better to eat with fresh crated coconuts. You need to eat it more than once and you will love it like stinky cheese.

Learn more about the Marshall Islands. They are on the front lines of climate change and will likely be underwater in a few decades.
