What to Pack for Hawaii

July 19, 2018

Islands North America Travel

Wow, where to begin?!

How do you pack for the most beautiful and tropical state in all the

About Me

A midwest american girl, run-in' round, learning about this crazy world.

Instagram

I could stare out this window all day.

We took a poll on our story on what people prefer in terms of city or country. We are seeing that the majority of our audience prefers the city life. And tbh, we can’t blame you. We’re both the same as our love for the hustle and bustle grows with every city we pass through.

Han just visited Puerto Valletta and Mexico City. She was instantly mesmerized with the country of Mexico and is itching to go back. My sister Maggie, has been running around Mexico for several months now and can not help but rave about the beauty and the friendly inhabitants.

Han & I have managed to spend a lot of time in some major cities around the world:
NYC, Chicago, Miami, Honolulu, Paris, Rome, Cape Town, Nice, Barcelona
To name a few.

We’ve fallen in love and have already made a list of what we want to experience next:
Ho Chi Minh, Oslo, London, Bali, Matara
Let us know if you’ve been and if it’s worth seeing 😄

We also want to make a point of saying the country lifestyle should not be understated. Just imagining stepping away from the crazy world and social media to spend a few months in the Swedish valleys. Surrounded by sheep and cattle. Sounds like an absolute dream. And both Han & I would do it in a heartbeat.

What would you choose?

What are you craving?

Beach day with Bae

We got to spend our first weekend back together since Hawai’i. We’ve been working on some projects separately.
At some point down the road, we would like to be working full time together 💗. But right now, we are making money in two different ways and that does not currently allow us to have the same schedule.
Even though, we are lucky to be able to make these little drips to reignite our passion for the companies and brands that we have been developing over the past few months.

And this isn’t the last time we will be linking up this month! Han is spending Halloween in Fort Lauderdale with me! We’re so excited to share our costumes 😉 and get sandy all over again.

PS: does anyone spot our little buddy in the picture?? 🐢

Emily in Paris or Hannah in NYC? ✨

Han & I have recently been focusing on maintaining positive attitudes and looking out into the world with a smile.

Have you seen the show Emily in Paris?

Highly recommend. It’s cute, funny, and all about a girl’s transition from the American lifestyle to “the way of the French”.

Even though she experiences a lot of roadblocks and deference, she perseveres to create a life she enjoys.

Han is running around NYC solo atm. But she’s made the most of it. Taking herself out on little dates, working her online job, spending time self-reflecting (no better place to do that then Central Park 😉)

Life’s not always going to go your way. It’s not about the way it comes at you, it’s the way you handle it.

Let’s make some lemonade out of lemons today 🍋

This is what we see as paradise.

Chilling on a beach swing, listening to the waves roll in and feeling the ocean breeze in your hair.

Hannah & enjoyed this little beach, tucked on the East side of the island. There were groups of people out barbecuing, dogs chasing sticks into the water, and children building sand castles.

We would consider ourselves “sun seekers”. We love to enjoy the heat and the joy that bright, cheerful skies cast.

We feel blessed for all the little nooks we discovered on this island, that made it feel like a home for us. 🌴

The colorful city of Valladolid 😍

Han and I have been Mexico hopping! And we’re so obsessed with this country. The vibrant architecture, friendly, happy people, and the mesmerizing history, all make Mexico one of the most under-celebrated places in North America.

I’ve only been to the East coast. Han has spent a lot more time exploring both the East and West coast. She’s currently running around Puerto Vallarta. And I’m so jealous.

But I may be showing back up in Cancun fairly soon, so I can’t complain!

What do you think is the most underrated country that you’ve been to?

That one time we hung out on a yacht all day...

Just an FYI, we haven’t been in the same place for over a month now and it has made us a little bit sad. Somehow Han has ended up in the Midwest again. Some would say the "worst part of the Midwest" aka Chicago. Buried in snow.

Gail, on the other hand, is getting sun burnt in Mexico. She was living it up on her own on Isla de Mujeres (island of women 💃🏼), but has since meandered over to Valladolid to meet up with her sister.

Where do you think we should meet up next??

Our top picks:

Puerto Vallarta
Miami
NYC

Do you ever feel lost and crave a chance to run away and “find yourself”?

Han and I have felt like that our whole life growing up in Midwest America 😂

And maybe that contributes to the way we are now. How we always desire to see something new, to experience strange places. We don’t want to ever be stuck somewhere.

Han has been working online and has managed to continue to travel. But Gail has fallen a little bit into that “stuck” feeling. Living in Florida is a dream, but every place and routine can get old after a while.

So where to next?

Where would you go to get “un-stuck”?

Summer never has to end 💗✨

Han & I tend to move around a lot and we love seeing new places and experiencing different landscapes. But I think I can speak for both of us when I say ✨the cold✨ is not our thing.
We have realized that as long as we avoid the cold, we’ve managed to experience better health and are all around happier.
We both currently reside in Miami where we soak up the warmth of the sun on the daily.
That’s not to say we can’t enjoy some winter vibes. But we can only do about a week of it, and then were outa there! 😂

What do you enjoy the most? Cold or warm weather? Or do you prefer to experience all four seasons?

Ooohh baby!!!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone around the world. No matter what you celebrate or where you are, we can all come together (virtually) to say we’ve made it through this crazy crazy year.

This pic was taken in Honolulu, near our departure date (back in August).

I can not believe how much we’ve done this year. And how much we have both grown. Even though this year has been difficult for everyone, (except for Jeff Bezos) we have all been able realize how much we have. And that we should be grateful for the people closest to us.

Let’s cheers to the lessons learn and look forward to a new year full of new opportunities and beautiful moments. 🥂

Sail away with me, my luv

Let’s talk about boats & hoes. Jk, just boats. Despite Han and I growing up in the Midwest, we’ve always been drawn to water. More so, the ocean. We both have a dream to acquire our diving certifications and utilize it around the world. Together, we lived on an island called Oahu. While we were there we spent much of our time at the beach. Han especially has a love for sharks and we managed to go shark diving one morning and see them up close.
My current profession, is working on yachts. I’ve been doing this for over two years now. This entails Iiving on a boat and constantly being surrounded by the beauty of the ocean.
Han will hopefully be here in Fort Lauderdale with me next week. We want to make a YouTube vid talking about working on yachts. So look out for that :)
