Aloha! Big Island Girl Here!

A personal story in the experience: I Lived In Hawaii
L ived in the Puna District for almost four years.

Was like a spiritual death experience.

Made good friends, closer than family, and got to eat all the mangoes I wanted. Got to have a baby in a birthing hut my friends made for me- surrounded my hapu'u ferns and anthuriums.

Learned how to fire dance and shake my *** Tahitian style.

Created a mama circle and provided domestic violence shelter in my home, which made me popular with some and hated by others.

Couldn't get a job because of my white skin, tattoos, and single mom status.

Sold the state's #1 agricultural product at concerts and made enough to survive on.
