Kihei, Hawaii

I visited Kihei,Hawaii when I was 18 years old. My aunt Jacquelyn lived there at the time; my plan was to spend two months there; see if I liked it, if I did I would return to the "mainland" and get my stuff and move to Hawaii "permanently."

I didn't like it. I was having so little fun in fact, that I altered my ticket and went back a few weeks early. So, I was only there for about 5 or 6 weeks.

While I was there, we did do some fun touristy stuff. We went to some of the most famous spots, snorkeled, saw a rainforest and sweltered in the sun!

Key reasons I hated it:

• "Americanized"
• not lush
• fairly boring
