Happy Aloha Friday!

Bamboo
Bamboo– a magical plant. Magical. It’s so foreign to me, growing up in the Minnehap with no bamboo. Even though it’s everywhere here, I’m still so excited by it.

Diamond Head Rainbow
Right after surfing, we saw this beautiful full rainbow. Happy Aloha Friday.

** I had wanted to share songs with you via Spotify’s new Play button, but alas, it’s not available in Hong Kong.
Tiffany Chou Jewelry
I have this secret desire to be a jewelry designer. Cruising around the internet, putting off productivity, I found Tiffany Chou’s website. While she is NYC based, she hails from Maui which has clearly influenced her work. Her pieces are delicate reminders of the all-powerful ocean.
These are three of my favorite pieces, but all of her work is stunning. Happy Aloha Friday!

Happy Aloha Friday, have a nice weekend!
Manapua!
Kaihalulu
I believe Maui is one of the most beautiful places that I have ever laid eyes on.
This beach is Kaihalulu, or Red Sands Beach, located south of Hana Bay. You might have to ask around, because the trail is kind of hidden, as well as a bit of a narrow path. I may or may not have fallen down while walking back from there.
I remember the sand being a bit more coarse, but it’s great for exfoliation!
You can float around in this cove, which is protected from the ocean by a natural wall rock formation but beware if you’ve got your mask and snorkel on, because it’s a clothing optional beach.
I didn’t know this until I was a few feet from something I’d rather not be a few feet from, if you get my drift.
If you ever get to Maui, I’d recommend this beach. It’s so beautiful, it will take your breath away!

Dragon Fruit
I realized today was Friday, which means that I lost a day. Even though it’s Thursday night for all you Americans… It’s Friday morning here. So I’m going to start doing my ‘weeklies’ on the day that makes sense for me.
Hence, Happy Aloha Friday!
My new pals (well, they are Rob’s friends that I have begun to commandeer) brought by heaps of really nice gifts, including Dragon Fruit! It reminded me of Hawaii and how much I love island fruit.
To enjoy, just slice in half and dig in! To me, it tastes a bit like a cucumber/melon/kiwi but less sweet.
Mmm refreshing Dragon Fruit
