“Hawai’i isn't what it is if it weren't for the Kanaka Maoli that I meet” ? Hawai’i holds a unique place in my heart, all thanks to the Kanaka Maoli I had the privilege to meet. Among all the destinations globally, Hawai’i became the place where I immersed into aloha āina, guided by the stewards of the land, the Kanaka Maoli, who have inhabited it for generations. Little did I anticipate that this immersion would not only broaden my understanding of Hawaiian culture but also profoundly impact my own values as a person. It instilled in me the profound wisdom, respect, and true aloha spirit of Hawai’i, shaping me into a better person. These values have become an integral part of who I am, influencing my actions and attitudes not only within the Hawaiian cultural sphere but also in my interactions with diverse cultures beyond for Oceania, and beyond This video encapsulates the culmination of my five-year journey in Hawai’i, involving two years of intensive video production, over 20 interviews, all coming to one fundamental question: “why?” The editing process has begun for what might be my most significant cultural video project, reflecting the pivotal and crucial five years of my life spent with a people who have rooted me deeply, in aloha! ?
