I don’t know why but I have always felt a deep connection with Hawaii.
Maybe it’s because my parents met there.
Maybe it’s because my middle name is Hawaiian.
Maybe it’s because it’s my parent’s favorite place and the love was passed down to me.
Maybe it’s because of the mana of the islands.
Maybe it’s because of its beauty.
Maybe it’s because of the people
Maybe it’s because I only have wonderful memories of my times there.
Whatever it is, I’m homesick. I’m craving the sweet scent of the islands, the warmth on my skin, the sensory overload.
Can someone send me back ‘home’?

I have never even been to Hawaii and I am homesick for the place after looking at those photos! If you do go home can I carry your luggage and go to?

Wow. I’ve never been there before, but it’d be amazing to go. Do you have any trips planned for it in the near future?

Okay looking at your pictures makes ME homesick for Hawaii. And I’ve never thought of it as home (mostly since I’ve only been there once). So I have no doubt that you’d feel homesick. Here’s hoping you get to go soon!
if you find a way back, please let me know how I can go. I have never been but would LOVE LOVE LOVE to go =) Gorgeous photos!

Thanks! Now I’m super homesick. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a crappy sunset or beach there. Even when there were a bunch of homeless, happy Hawaiians living on the beach.
