Hawaii
“Hawai‘i isn’t just a place—it’s a state of mind. Salt on your skin, sand between your toes, and the hum of the Pacific”
Hawaii
In April 2022, we spent five unforgettable weeks in Hawaii, exploring four of its most iconic islands: Oahu, Kauai, Maui, and the Big Island. While our visit was ofcourse part of our indefinite travels, it was also a special occasion—celebrating our 10-year anniversary in one of the most breathtaking destinations on Earth. Each island has its own unique charm, and discovering them all felt like traveling through different worlds within the same paradise.
Oahu – The heart of Hawaii, where we soaked up the energy of Waikiki, visited the historic Pearl Harbor, and hiked up Diamond Head for panoramic views. The North Shore’s legendary surf and the lush valleys of Waimea were also fantastic.
Kauai – the Garden Isle, Kauai is a lush, green wonderland. The Na Pali Coast, with its dramatic cliffs, was one of the most breathtaking landscapes we have ever seen. We explored the misty Weeping Wall and hiked through Waimea Canyon.
Maui – A mix of adventure and relaxation. We watched the sunrise from Haleakalā, drove the legendary Road to Hana, and marveled at the sacred pools of Oheo Gulch. The golden beaches and laid-back vibe is facntastic.
Big Island – Home to the active Kīlauea volcano, this island is a land of fire, lava, and untamed beauty. We explored the Volcanoes National Park, wandered through the tropical town of Hilo, and relaxed by the beaches of Kailua-Kona.
For many, Hawaii may feel like a faraway dream, but trust us—it is worth every mile. If you ever get the chance, take your time to discover its magic—you won’t regret it!

Hawaii is one of those destinations that feels more like a dream than a place, a tropical paradise where the spirit of aloha is woven into every ocean breeze, swaying palm, and golden sunset. Though often thought of as a faraway escape, Hawaii is closer than you think and absolutely worth the journey.
With its volcanic landscapes, lush rainforests, world-class beaches, and rich Polynesian culture,
it is a destination that calls travelers to slow down, explore, and embrace island life at its finest.
Hawaii consists of multiple islands, each with its own unique character, we visited four that stand out for their beauty:
Oahu – The Heartbeat of Hawaii
Oahu blends tropical paradise with urban energy. Honolulu is the capital and it is home to Waikiki, where surfers ride the waves against a backdrop of city lights, and Pearl Harbor, where history comes alive. Hike to the top of Diamond Head for panoramic views, or escape to the North Shore, where legendary surf and laid-back vibes make time feel slower. Whether you crave adventure, nightlife, or relaxation, Oahu has it all.
Kauai – The Garden Isle
Kauai is indeed Hawaii’s wild, untamed soul. With emerald valleys, towering cliffs, and cascading waterfalls, it is a hiker’s paradise. The Napali Coast is so breathtaking it feels almost unreal, while the misty Weeping Wall and dramatic Waimea Canyon showcase nature’s artistry.
Kauai is the island to lose yourself in nature,and find yourself in the process.
Maui – The Valley Isle
Maui is a perfect blend of adventure and relaxation. Visit the island above the clouds at Haleakala, watching the sunrise over the crater and the ocean. Or hike into the Haleakala crater. Wind your way along the famous Road to Hāna, where waterfalls, black sand beaches, and tropical forests await.
But do not stop in Hana, finish the lap all the way around the Haleakala.
The island’s golden beaches and luxury resorts invite you to unwind, while charming small towns like Paia and Lahaina give a glimpse of old Hawaii.
Big Island – The Land of Fire and Wonder
The Big Island is raw, powerful, and ever-changing, shaped by the forces of lava and sea. Stand in awe at Kilauea, one of the world’s most active volcanoes, where molten lava meets the ocean in a dramatic display. Hike along the crater and experience what vulcanoes can do.
Explore the waterfalls and botanical gardens of Hilo, snorkel with manta rays (oh yes oh yes) off the Kona coast, or simply take in the vastness of this island, where black sand beaches, green valleys, and stark lava fields create a world like no other.
Hawaii is more than just a destination—it is a feeling, a way of life. Whether you are chasing waterfalls, lounging on sun-kissed shores, or learning the traditions of the islands, Hawaii welcomes you with open arms.
