Review of Honolulu, Hawaii


Life in Waikiki
Star Rating - 8/17/2009
My husband and I relocated in Waikiki in 05 and lived there until he "had to get off the damn rock" in 08, its a move I will forever regret. Since we choose to marry at Diamond Head, and after much time he got a job at a good hotel as the controller, yes its hard, but its worth it.

He reliases noe all he needed was a vacation, we loved our live, since I did not work I did not experience the racism as he did, but with perserverience he came out the winner. His office staff all Hawaiian or Asian not only accepted him but loved him. If its in the cards we will go back and live until we die.

The island is so lovely, the people laid back and accepting once they know you do not feel above them..The taxes are too high and I found the homeless and the not caring attitude hard to cope with, but we loved our lives there.
