This all started with a conversation between Nainoa Langer and Sam Potter as they sat above a waterfall overlooking a childhood swimming hole.
Nai said, “We should start a travel-based series that gives people an in-depth look at cultures around the world,” in hopes that we could create something that encourages greater appreciation, understanding, and respect between cultures.
Sam's response was “Let’s start with home.” So, here we are.
The first thought when it came to explaining a place as complex as Hawaii was people need to understand that there are two parts to the culture - the traditional side and the modern day side.
Our modern-day life represented by Kimi Werner, demonstrates our values, the way we care for each other, for our community, and for our environment.
The traditional side represented by Micah Kamohoalii, shares a little about the history of Hawaii, the practices of the Hawaiian people.
Most importantly, Aloha, what it means and how that too can be practiced.
