Honolulu, Hawaii. A place near and dear to my heart. The place that birthed me, raised me and shaped me into the young man I am today. A place of great weather, incredible beaches and delicious food. But, more importantly, a place that is home to some of the best people on the planet.
I was born on October 1st, 1999 and ever since that date Hawaii has been home to me. Home for more than 20 years and by far my favorite place on this planet. I have visited many places and traveled to different countries. Every state and country have many great places in their own right, but none that can compare to the richness and flavor of Hawaii. I still have never found a place like Hawaii, there is truly nothing like it in the whole world. I can go five minutes down the street and pick up an ono poke bowl and then walk another two minutes to one of the prettiest beaches in the world. Where can you find that other than Hawaii? I’ll answer that, nowhere! There are many great qualities that make Hawaii my favorite, but none other than its world class beaches.
While Hawaii as a whole is my favorite place in the world, Waimanalo beach is my favorite spot on this island. By far the most relaxing and beautiful beach in the world, especially when there is no one there. A twenty-minute drive from my house, Waimanalo beach park is a quick and majestic beach that I love to go to and relax with my friends. Whenever we have time, me and about five of my friends will hop in my Toyota Tacoma and take a quick drive to our favorite beach to body board, relax and talk story. The perfect size of the waves and silky soft sand make this beach the best place to have fun and get away. I have had some of my most memorable memories at this beach with all of my friends and this will forever be my favorite spot in the world.
What makes Hawaii even more special are the people that live on this island. From my family, friends, uncle, aunties, cashiers, mailmen and everyone in between. Everyone who is from here knows how much aloha people show. You can’t experience this type of bond and love that people show each other anywhere else in the world. This above all, makes Hawaii my favorite place in the world.
