I would retire here.

I’m not kidding. If I could pick anywhere in the world to retire, I’d choose Hawaii. They have the best of both worlds: mountains and beaches. What could be better than that? HAHA. Anyway, it was the first trip where I had no plans made before (I usually do that when I travel), so I ended up jumping into waterfalls, swimming in high tides, snuba (scuba+snokerling), sleeping only four hours to catch the sunrise, and ate A LOT of musubi. I’d love to come back and visit the other two islands.

Pro tip: The state of Hawaii has eight main islands, and each island has different attractions; I visited only two, O’ahu (where Honolulu is) and Maui.
