This is my first trip to Hawaii. Ever. But I have dreamed of Hawaii ever since I heard that song “Happy Hawaii” .. Thanks to Abba and this song that my images grew, and my longing became a journey, not only a dream.
I wanted to avoid the most touristy places and I chose Kaua’i. My wish was to live the Island Life, explore the beaches and the wild nature, as far away out in the Pacific Ocean possible. Kaua´i is the oldest of the 8 islands, and probably the most powerful of them all. It magnetizes. People come here and they meet them selves, leaving with a greater knowledge and inner understanding.

I want to go back, and pretty soon I will share a blog about the special and wonderful energy on the Island. But first of all here are 10 things you have to do – WHEN – you go to Kauaì!!
1. Watch the Sunrise on the East side of the Island- every day!
So many seeking souls approach the ocean to see the beautiful sunrise in the morning, taking the time to meditate and enjoy this wonder, again and again..
2. Buy local Coconut
In front of my favourite Cafe- Hippie Cafe in Kapa´a!!
Healthy, tasty, what is better than follow the rhythm of the nature and climate when it comes to food… After all Coconut is a tropical food
They are all over the place, and you can even send your private postcard on a Coconut from Hawaii….
3. Beachcombing
The beach is covered by seaglass – it´s almost worth the trip….
My treasures from Glass Beach. They will be used in the bracelets and in dreamcatchers..
There´s not too much shells on these beaches, but if you do some research you will find some treasures in Kapaà… a holy moment, at least for me
4. Play golf by the Ocean
New Golf course by the Ocean, the ambience is a mixture of Hawaii and Japan. Ocean Course Hokuala
5. Yoga by the Beach
It´s easy to book classes through the “MindBody” app. This class was healing and , energising by the beach in front of the Marriot Hotel in Lihue
Opplevelsen ved bukten var fantastisk. Kjenn den magnetiske kraften fra Moder Jord.
6. Buy Lei (flowers)
They are between 10-15 dollar and smells fresh. They use many of the flowers to produce perfume and soaps. Use them as necklace and be a beach girl
Put your “lei” in the fridge during the night and they will last longer
It feels good to be a flower girl at Hawaii
7. Beach biking
On the Eastside of Kaua `i there are lots of biking trails either on the sand or on the promenades
Life is good by the sea!
8. Helicopter over the Island
Such an adventure to experience the Island from the sky and spot unreachable treasures
They call it “The Grand Canyon” and many Hollywood movies has been made here, one of them is Jurassic Park
9. Hiking
Lots of exciting trails, some of them takes you up to 3 days and you might end up on an exotic beach some where…
10. Watch Sunstes on the Southside of the Island
This sunset is from Beach House Restaurant in Poipu. Book table in advance if you want to join a dinner while watching the sun god down
I hope this gave you lots of good vibes and wishes to approach a different kind of holiday next time where you also feed your soul
Best wishes
Monica
