While exploring properties in Kailua, Oahu, we came across Cafe Kopi, an internationally-inspired cafe featuring baked goods, craft coffees — and ramen! We had to try the Spam musubi croissant. Look for a video on our Insta stories!
We’re on the road and working in Hawaii while enjoying the holiday season! If you’re looking for a vacation home or a relocation opportunity in the Rainbow State, there are a few things you need to know…
70 Lorange Pl, Kailua, HI 96734
Many homes incorporate traditional Hawaiian architecture, like open floor plans, large verandas (aka “lanais”), and natural materials like wood and stone to blend with the natural surroundings.
121 Kaha St, Kailua, HI 96734
Hawaii has a tropical climate, so homes are built to withstand the elements like flooding, humidity, and pests. The mild climate also lends itself to indoor-outdoor living, with large windows and sliding glass doors.
1017 Kalahu Pl, Honolulu, HI 96825
Hawaiian homes often reflect the diverse cultural influences of the islands, including Polynesian, Asian, and Western elements.

We both wanted to get away for New Year’s to take a break and recharge our batteries. But as usual, we had a hard time deciding which way to go – ocean or mountains? In the end, we decided to do both!
The warmth of the sun was calling my name, so Oahu, Hawai’i was my choice for our New Year's vacation. We enjoyed epic sunrises and sunsets, tropical plants, soothing ocean waters, Mai Tais, chocolate, pineapple, shaved ice, seafood — yes, lots of fresh seafood — and of course, turtles! That’s not to mention some of the friendliest people on the planet. Everyone you meet smiles back at you. It’s like a daily mood boost without meditation!
I prefer a winter wonderland escape, so after our island getaway, it was off to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, for snowboarding, snowmobiling, and mingling with wildlife (elk, bighorn sheep, bison, eagle, and swans were just a few that we spotted). And of course, we had to take a dip in the famous hot springs. With breathtaking nature like the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone National Park surrounding you, it’s a colorful cultural experience like no other!
