Had some family who lived in HI for years and visited when I was a kid. People were very friendly and warm, but prices are crazy (it is an island after all, with everything shipped in). Enjoy the experience and keep posting!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7423127284731834146.post-21491277503376493252010-02-08T16:04:43.723-10:002010-02-08T16:04:43.723-10:00Congrats!!! I am sincerely happy for you.
Here a...Congrats!!! I am sincerely happy for you. <br /><br />Here are some general tips off the top of my head:<br /><br />Take more money than you think you will need and half the stuff you want to take with you (trust me, you will find / buy stuff there). Or, bring stuff with you that you can leave behind when you return home so you will have more room in your bags to bring home souvenirs and things you collect along the way. <br /><br />Make sure that you have copies of all your important papers/ documents (scan copies and email them to yourself too as backup). <br /><br />Bring hard copy pictures and a map from back home to decorate your new room. <br /><br />Find other freegans online in the area where you will be staying before you go, so you already feel like you have a network of friends there. <br /><br />Keep a journal / diary of your experiences in Hawaii that you can flip through in 20 years. <br /><br />If you take any medication, have a supply with you to get through the first several months. <br /><br />Set up housing, etc before you leave if possible - it will make your life a lot less stressful and it will give you an idea of where your budget needs to be. <br /><br />Consider buying your plane ticket off of studentuniverse.com for a good deal. <br /><br />Remember, Skype is a beautiful, wonderful invention to cure homesickness... <br /><br />Have fun! Enjoy relishing in your accomplishment. <br /><br />-CelineCeCehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08728734268722438615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7423127284731834146.post-84294023250797660692010-02-06T05:44:28.062-10:002010-02-06T05:44:28.062-10:00congrats on getting accepted mikey!congrats on getting accepted mikey!Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05478714387439466411noreply@blogger.com
