After college, she chose to trade in her winter boots for slippahs and moved to the beautiful island of Oahu, where she has been living for more than five years. She lives on the west side but is constantly taking mini-road trips across the island and visits the neighboring islands whenever she can getaway. She loves hiking, snorkeling, locally-grown coffee, and finding the best acai bowl on Oahu.
Perhaps more than any other state in the country, the Hawaiian Islands are home to the prettiest landscapes around — from the Pacific Ocean and pristine beaches to towering mountains and lush jungles. While we love Hawaii’s beaches as much as everyone else, today we’re headed inland to a hidden oasis on the island of Hawaii where you can embark on a peaceful horseback tour that leads to a hidden waterfall.
