The Benefits of Living in Honolulu
Living on a beautiful island is not a bad thing at all.
From California to Colorado to New York, there are dream-like places to live all across America. However, there’s only one Hawaii.
Whether you have been to Hawaii for business or pleasure, or have yet to make a trip to arguably the best vacation spot in the world, there are endless reasons to move to a place like Honolulu. It all starts with ideal weather conditions. Read on to learn more.
Perfect Weather
Hawaii is known for its perfect weather. In fact, that’s one of the biggest reasons why so many people decide to call Honolulu home.
Just how nice is the weather on a yearly basis, though? Surely, the temperatures have to take somewhat of a dip. Well, while Hawaii heats up during the summer months, and while January is considered one of the coldest months of the year, the average high temperature in Honolulu during January is 80 degrees Fahrenheit. The average high during the hottest month of the year in Honolulu (August) is 88.7 degrees, just to show off the beautiful year-round temperatures.
Not only does that make Hawaii a paradise, but it also makes for an appealing place to work. For example, if you work with your hands and are good at fixing things, then appliance repair in Honolulu could be your dream job, as it’s easy to get around year-round because cold temperatures and snow don’t take over. In reality, your job will be in season during every month of the year, no matter what type of appliance repair you specialize in.
Outdoors and the Ocean
When you combine ideal temperatures with outdoors and the ocean, you get, well, Hawaii. Hawaii has a perfect blend of mountains and oceans, and you can hike, mountain bike, surf or snorkel—all on the same day. Given the ideal weather conditions and the diverse outdoor recreation, it’s no wonder why so many people spend a great amount of time outside in Hawaii.
This state, to say the least, is a paradise, and the mountains, oceans, and outdoor lifestyle are some of the reasons why.
Hawaii is considered one of the best states to live in.
According to CNBC, Hawaii is the second-best place to live in America, and in 2017, it came in at number one when it comes to quality of life.
Being considered one of the best vacation destinations is one thing, but being deemed of the best places to live in America is a completely different story and just goes to show why residents are loving every minute of the island life.
Unique Culture and Island Vibes
Hawaii is known for its unique culture, traditions, food, island vibes, and overall laid-back way of living. According to Go Hawaii, this culture is expressed through things like “language, music, art, theater, dance, film, cuisine, and a multitude of festivals.” And behind all of that, from hula dancing to slack-key guitar playing, is the “Aloha spirit.”
Hula dancing, tiki torches, and luaus are just some of the ingredients that help to make Hawaii unique, entertaining, and culture-packed. The food (such as poi, Kalua pig, spam, and shaved ice) and one-of-a-kind Hawaiian culture also help to make Honolulu one of the best places to live not just in America but the world.
There are a million different reasons to move to Honolulu, but realistically, you only need one. That’s how unique and special this place is.

Was I a Model in Japan?
During my time in Nagoya I worked and lived at the strangely famous hostel and café Nagonoya. With its chequered floors and florescent lighting it felt quite dated, but I think that was supposed to be part of the charm. The dorms were always fully booked on weekends with domestic tourists and there was always a buzz in the downstairs café. Camera crews were constantly in and out of the place interviewing the Japanese staff members who worked the café. I think it had something to do with the egg sandwiches. At least that was what was on most of the merchandise, except for that one dishcloth with the owner’s face on it. Was I being employed by a local celebrity?

Why Is It Important to Be a Culture-Sensitive Traveller?
As a traveller, you cross continents, discovering new cultures, people, and experiences. While there’s nothing wrong with holding onto your own personal beliefs, when you’re in a new land governed by a different set of rules, it’s important that you behave in a manner that shows respect for local culture and people. Why is it important? Well, there are several reasons. Suffice it to say that having an open mind will open doors to a wholesome world of diversity and inclusivity.

A Digital Pandemic.
After a long day in the department, Emily dropped her worn and tired dark leather bag on the counter before navigating through the small and disordered kitchen to grab a cold beer from a contrarily empty fridge. She hadn't had a chance to unpack since moving from Newcastle to Glasgow, let alone shop for sustenance, except for cold brews naturally.
