Hi, glad I found this thread as I think forums are a great way to get good inside info and thank you for having me.
My goal is to relocate to Hawaii in 2014 but am not sure where. I have only been as a tourist so will come in March and do a little recon trip. So for now looking for suggestions for cities I should check out.
I am currently living in Phuket, Thailand and have for 12 years and have realised it is TIME to "come home". Being that I have been living on an island for all these years Hawaii appeals to me the most. Originally I am from California.
I MISS America. Besides being tired of being a foreigner and so far from family and friends there are things I want in my life now that I am older that I can not get here nor were not so important 12 years ago.
Perhaps if I specify this I can get some suggestions for towns to check out. I do like city and do not want to be to quiet or remote so I am thinking Oahu or Maui.
What I miss sooooo much here is not being able to ride a bicycle. The roads are super scary here and I would not dare to take on the traffic, even by the beach.
So good biking lanes.
Farmers market/ organic produce
Community, community!!
Conservation
Other things I would like would be an older neighbourhood, no track housing,
environmentally conscious, recycling etc, not to many homeless, independent shops and business.
I have some online businesses and do consulting so am flexible.
I am coming by myself and am a young 40 year old. So schools are not a consideration. Being some where safe is but I am also from LA so am not expecting unrealistic.
Thank you for reading this and look forward to being part of this community!
