Hi, we are Alexus Cazares and Michi Nuesser…fourth year PhD students (Biological Oceanography and Second Language Studies) living in O'ahu, Hawai'i.
We make videos about PhD student life (PhD in Hawaii Vlogs), life as an international LGBTQ couple, science communication, and our many adventures along the way.
Subscribe for new videos every single week :)

One day this will come to fruition, the day will come when you have to begin to ready yourselves for a whole new transition. There is a new opportunity for those who care to comprehend this, that there is a new breed of a small percentage of folks who have been stacking and holding digital assets in the blockchain of the XRPL (LEDGER). And from out of this pool will come the next new multi billionaires of this New Earth Digital Economy. These small percentage of individuals will be known as humanitarian workers, which will aid projects like yours? The reasoning behind all humanitarian workers is their willingness to support programs projects with the latest technological developments? Let’s face it all institutions around the globe are struggling for funding, all governments including all Tier One banking institutions. So don’t kid yourself into thinking that they are going to have the funds for your ocean exploration research vessels. In what fantasy world are you planning on receiving those billions and billions for the latest technological advancement? For example who would invest their billions to get you a something like the largest expedition yacht in the world 600ft/183m REV or perhaps 5 or 8 of these at a base price of $500 million for each of these research vessels? Had you any comprehension on what had been transpiring around us lately in the world of the old financial monetary system? or are you more concerned about a professional title or perhaps a societal position maybe invites at those fancy’s cocktail parties. I think you ought to be prepared because you don’t understand what is at play here, it’s going to be a conflict of interest between the humanitarians of the New upcoming multi billionaires vs the old family from the financial monetary system. And the old family are definitely not interested in being humanitarian workers. Maybe perhaps they fancied the seas and dressed up for dinner in a fancy naval dress uniform but that’s as far as their humanitarian work will go. On the other hand you might want to consider contacting one of these new multibillionaires for their support because perhaps you might come across someone from that pool whom understand life at sea and perhaps had worked out of an OA Division meteorology/ oceanography space on a naval ship. I’m sure when that day comes just remember that there will be someone like me I meant to say like that who could step up and fund all your oceans expedition’s. Of course the old money centralized bureaucracy would want to dip their claws into all those billions and billions and this what you have to prepare yourself folks at the highest level that are compromised with blackmail people in the highest level of power in institutions covering their behind for the preservation of their family wealth. This is the ground work that you need to prepare for. And even if I gave you 50 billions for your expeditions, how much of those billions are you going to see in purchasing the newest edition of ocean explorational technology. guaranteeing me that these knuckleheads wouldn’t contemplate such a heist and to think otherwise well this will be plain foolishness and my part. When this comes to fruition look for me I will be scouting around the oceanographic centers and of course if I am who I claim to become than I will have unlimited funding for unlimited investigative resources on who’s who in regards to exposing the weakchain in your field?

Facts ☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼 Hawaii is fun and all, and you should definitely enjoy the place you’re living in… but you should also be trying to maximize your college experience and set yourself up for a good future whatever you decide that is 😊
As mentioned in the video, we are not encouraging people to move to Hawaii. Simply helping those that are moving there for school or a job to prepare for their move as moving to an island can be difficult. We are aware of and understand of this very complex issue.
This is a good question! Unfortunately I don’t have a good answer for you right now.. but at least not that I am super aware of. I can try to find out more info on this though!
Thank you for your reply. Can you please get me this information? I would love that. ❤ Again thanks for all of your efforts to present the school in a beautiful way. You are beautiful too ❤.
She has done a separate video on this channel about how to apply to graduate school as an international student in the US, but if you have more specific questions for her you can always reach out via Instagram @michaelanu ☺️
Hi Alexis, Thanks! Your videos inspired me to look into UNH for graduate school. I’ve been emailing professors in the UHM Oceanography Department but haven’t received the replies I hoped for. Could you tell me which faculty members are recruiting graduate students? Where can I find that information?
Oh great that you’ve emailed professors already. If you aren’t receiving replies, do make sure that you are following the steps I’ve outlined in the previous video I made on emailing and contacting professors for graduate school. I can’t say exactly which faculty members are currently looking for graduate students.. sometimes they advertise on their lab or personal websites but not always. Best way would be email in my opinion!
It really depends on where you are. For Hawaii, for example, that’s pretty low but definitely doable. You may not be able to have a car (unless you split one with roommates maybe!) and you won’t be able to live by yourself, but it certainly works out! Especially if you have a side hustle and don’t eat out as much!
Das klingt ja nach einer Menge interessantem Content die nächsten Wochen. Außer natürlich Griechenland, denn da sollt Ihr für Euch sein (gab ja nen kleinen Einblick bei Insta). Dann ganz viel Spaß Euch beiden....Have Fun
Thank you so much for this video. Even though I’m still in my first year of undergrad, my dream is to be a researcher in academia and seeing a lot of “why you should leave academia” type of videos is really discouraging. But you’re right, if you want academia why not? At the end of the day we can find problems in every single field, and negativity will always get more amplified than positive content. If you stray away from your dream because the road presents challenges then what is the purpose of that life? Thank you for reminding me of this!
Im from there and i approve this video. Its so different when someone who just visited there makes a video vs someone who actually lives there. Great job! 🤙🏽
Oh thank you!! We are glad that you thought we did a good job in this one and hopefully it accurately reflects what it is like to move to the islands from the mainland for school/work 🙂
Hi! I would love to connect to learn more about second language studies/linguistics, I am thinking about going back to school for this and I am just starting to explore the exciting possibilities! Is IG best to connect? Would love to hear your experiences. (also my undergrad was in oceanography at UCSB so double crossover)
Hey there!! That’s so cool that you’re interested in both of the topics that we study! So glad you found our videos ☺️ IG is the best way to get in touch with us, just send us a DM @michaelanu for SLS/linguistics or @alexuscazares for oceanography stuff!
