Out in the Hawaiian islands is a place that stands out on its own. Molokai is the island (outside of unaccessible Niihau) that's kept development away. This is old Hawaii, a place without traffic lights or bustle. Here, time stands still, and the locals have fought hard to keep it this way. Join me on an epic adventure with a Molokai local into a Hawaiian island that has stayed true to its roots.

I was stationed in Hawaii for 3 years. We were always told to not go to the westside because people were “rude”. They could not have been nicer to my pregnant wife, and eventually our newborn baby. Hawaiians are very forgiving people. The energy you give, like Peter in this video, is the respect you’ll receive in return. It was emotional to see Oahu during covid and hear from the Hawaiians that the ocean was healing and looking like “it used to be”. God Bless you all and Mahalo for letting my family visit.

Me, I was like mahalos because I needed help and they offered. Three armed guards stationed up the valley (Makua, I believe) drove down because they thought trouble was brewing. All aloha, everyone talked story for a few minutes…bailed all good.

I am Hawaiian, I was born and raised in Hawaii on Oahu and Moloka'i. I live in Texas now. But Moloka'i will always be my home island. My grandfather is buried there, my grandmother is buried there, most of my family is buried there, my mother (East End) and father (Ho'olehua Homestead) are both from Moloka'i. I grew up on that island. Hunting, fishing, tagging along with my dad when he had to trap and neutralize mongoose issues out of the wildlife refuge. I know Kaunakakai like the back of my hand. I grew up killing time in Pascua store, Kanemitsu Bakery (before Hot Bread was even a thing), Misaki's and running around Rawlins Chevron which I guess is Texaco now. I do miss it. Moloka'i will always be home. I hope this video helps to educate some folks and maybe give them a wanderlust to visit, but I also hope this video doesn't cause any detriment to the way of life Moloka'i has and should always have. Keep Moloka'i, Moloka'i.

They don't even try and build a garden. How many of them did you see? Plenty of place to grow food there instead of shipping in fruits and vegetables. Imagine living in Hawaii and buying a pineapple from South America or Philippians. I've been there and seen the shipping boxes. Thing is their climate produces some of the best fruits and vegetables. The problem is land has come so expensive but many times you can lease is very reasonable for farming or ranching

This was the best yet in your Hawaii series, Peter. Ben’s tour and history of the island was fascinating and educational. The story of Ben’s wife’s family homesteading, and doing what the government thought was impossible is so inspirational and part of history most of us had never heard before. I have friends that moved from California to Lanai a few years ago. I visited last year and was taken back by the “Ellison effect“. That’s my term for taking a beautiful native island and turning it into a compound for the wealthy. That island has been taken over by wealthy ex-pats… which include my friends. They all seem to be fairly impressed that Larry is their neighbor. The conversation revolves around what European country they’re flying off to or which of their homes they’re traveling to next. Larry and the ex-pats have turned this island into a haven for the wealthy. I saw very little of Larry contributing to the native people. I’m happy to hear Ben’s dream of an organic farm on Molokai. With all of the billions that Ellison has there is no organic produce being grown on a farm on Lanai. Everyone must travel by boat with coolers to do their shopping over in Maui. They then either Rent-A-Car or own a car that they pay to park on Maui to shop. Larry Ellison spent millions planting non-native trees but couldn’t be bothered to create an organic farm to feed the community. When I asked about Molokai, I was told it’s a very “dangerous“ island and that no one travels there. Thank you for dispelling that myth and for showing us your beautiful home Ben. Mahalo!❤

I really enjoyed the much slower pace of life and getting connected with nature. Those 9 months felt like a rebirth and I've never been the same since (in a good way of course).

It was almost an unspoken understanding and respect that if you had no real reason to go there, let them be in peace. What a rare place to live and raise an ohana, truly a blessing. I hope that Ben and the rest of the locals there are able to find a perfect balance that benefits them and continues to allow them to thrive in their paradise. Mahalo for sharing Peter!

after Listening to most people in your videos, they are children of the devil from every genre of false religions destined for eternal hell, and they blaspheme the true and only God almighty JESUS CHRIST by their worship and beliefs in their false gods they worship. repent and SERVE THE ONLY TRUE LIVING GOD JESUS CHRIST. 3¶“You must not have any other god but me. 22¶So Paul, standing before the council,fn addressed them as follows: “Men of Athens, I notice that you are very religious in every way, 23for as I was walking along I saw your many shrines. And one of your altars had this inscription on it: ‘To an Unknown God.’ This God, whom you worship without knowing, is the one I’m telling you about. 24¶“He is the God who made the world and everything in it. Since he is Lord of heaven and earth, he doesn’t live in man-made temples, 25and human hands can’t serve his needs-for he has no needs. He himself gives life and breath to everything, and he satisfies every need. 26From one manfn he created all the nations throughout the whole earth. He decided beforehand when they should rise and fall, and he determined their boundaries. 27¶“His purpose was for the nations to seek after God and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him-though he is not far from any one of us. 28For in him we live and move and exist. As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’ 29And since this is true, we shouldn’t think of God as an idol designed by craftsmen from gold or silver or stone. 30¶“God overlooked people’s ignorance about these things in earlier times, but now he commands everyone everywhere to repent of their sins and turn to him. 31For he has set a day for judging the world with justice by the man he has appointed, and he proved to everyone who this is by raising him from the dead.” 32¶When they heard Paul speak about the resurrection of the dead, some laughed in contempt, but others said, “We want to hear more about this later.” 33That ended Paul’s discussion with them, 34but some joined him and became believers. Among them were Dionysius, a member of the council, a woman named Damaris, and others with them. 4¶“You must not make for yourself an idol of any kind or an image of anything in the heavens or on the earth or in the sea. 5You must not bow down to them or worship them, for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God who will not tolerate your affection for any other gods. I lay the sins of the parents upon their children; the entire family is affected-even children in the third and fourth generations of those who reject me. 6But I lavish unfailing love for a thousand generations on those who love me and obey my commands. 7¶“You must not misuse the name of the LORD your God. The LORD will not let you go unpunished if you misuse his name (((((((1 JOHN 2 WARNING)))))) 22 And who is a liar? Anyone who says that Jesus is not the Christ. Anyone who denies the Father and the Son is an antichrist THE COMMANDS TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER MEANS TO KEEP GODS COMMANDS. INCLUDING THE ONES BELOW. 2 JOHN 1:5And now, dear lady, I am not writing you a new command but one we have had from the beginning. I ask that we ****LOVE ONE ANOTHER. 6And this is love(AND THIS IS WHAT LOVING ONE ANOTHER IS/MEANS): that we walk in OBEDIENCE TO HIS COMMANDS. As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love. *JOHN 14:21Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.” 22Then Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said, “But, Lord, why do you intend to show yourself to us and not to the world?” 23Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. 24Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me. 25“All this I have spoken while still with you. R0MANS 1: 28Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. 32Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them. GALATIANS 411I fear for you. Perhaps all my hard work with you was for nothing. 2 PETER 2 IS ONE OF COUNTLESS WORDS FROM THAT ARE LACKING 1But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them-bringing swift destruction on themselves. 2Many will follow their depraved conduct and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. 3In their greed these teachers will exploit you with fabricated stories. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping. 4For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them in chains of darkness to be held for judgment; 5if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others; 6if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly; 7and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the depraved conduct of the lawless 8(for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)- 9if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of judgment. 10This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the flesh and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, they are not afraid to heap abuse on celestial beings; 11yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not heap abuse on such beings when bringing judgment on them from the Lord. 12But these people blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like unreasoning animals, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like animals they too will perish. 15They have left the straight way and wandered off to follow the way of Balaam son of Bezer, who loved the wages of wickedness. 16But he was rebuked for his wrongdoing by a donkey-an animal without speech-who spoke with a human voice and restrained the prophet’s madness. 17These people are springs without water and mists driven by a storm. Blackest darkness is reserved for them. 18For they mouth empty, boastful words and, by appealing to the lustful desires of the flesh, they entice people who are just escaping from those who live in error. 19They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves of depravity-for “people are slaves to whatever has mastered them.” 20If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and are overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning. 21It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the sacred command that was passed on to them. 22Of them the proverbs are true: “A dog returns to its vomit,” and, “A sow that is washed returns to her wallowing in the mud.” 1 CORINTHIANS 10 IS NOT TO BE FORGOTTEN. 5Yet God was not pleased with most of them, and their bodies were scattered in the wilderness. 6These things happened as a warning to us, so that we would not crave evil things as they did, 7or worship idols as some of them did. As the Scriptures say, “The people celebrated with feasting and drinking, and they indulged in pagan revelry.” 8And we must not engage in sexual immorality as some of them did, causing 23,000 of them to die in one day. 9Nor should we put Christ to the test, as some of them did and then died from snakebites. 10And don’t grumble as some of them did, and then were destroyed by the angel of death. 11These things happened to them as examples for us. They were written down to warn us who live at the end of the age. 12If you think you are standing strong, be careful not to fall. 2 corinthians 19 You gladly put up with fools since you are so wise! 20In fact, you even put up with anyone who enslaves you or exploits you or takes advantage of you or puts on airs or slaps you in the face. 21To my shame I admit that we were too weak for that! 3But I fear that somehow your pure and undivided devotion to Christ will be corrupted, just as Eve was deceived by the cunning ways of the serpent. 4You happily put up with whatever anyone tells you, even if they preach a different Jesus than the one we preach, or a different kind of Spirit than the one you received, or a different kind of gospel than the one you believed. 5 But I don’t consider myself inferior in any way to these “super apostles” who teach such things. 6I may be unskilled as a speaker, but I’m not lacking in knowledge. We have made this clear to you in every possible way.

One of my life's most treasured memories was sailing a 30 ft sailboat with my Dad and brothers from Oahu to Maui and back. The first night, we anchored in the shelter of the south side of Molokai and went spear-fishing for lobster at night. On the way back, we sailed the phenomenal north cliffs of Molokai and reeled in a Tuna while doing our best to keep the boat on a steady course in high waves and deep seas. We had sashimi right on the deck. I will never forget the magic that surrounds Molokai.

We lived and worked in Hawaii from 1995 until 2006, but never made it to Molokai. I was the Yamaha piano dealer for the state and worked on the four major islands. Our franchise required that we take a container load of pianos to each of the four main island twice a year and offer them for sale. It was a great way to meet and work with a lot of great people. Thanks for the visit.

Absolutely love it. Born and raised on Big Island. Live on the east side practically all my life. I am 46 now. Never left to live anywhere else. Now with my own family and my own home and possessions, I can relate to this. The feeling of home is like nothing else. My “nest” is what I call it. Funny thing is, I have never been to Moloka’i. I want to visit someday though. I agree wholeheartedly about when the guy in the store said “Don’t change Moloka’i, let Moloka’i change you”. That is 1000000% correct. Another one is “Don’t change the culture, adjust to it”. Hawai’i as a whole is such a special place. Alot of places here though is changing unfortunately. All because of money. Truly a sad thing. I also agree deeply and wholeheartedly about farming. So much so that it literally makes me tear up. Especially the way the world is going today. Materialistic and not only that but so much people don’t know how to grow food. Or raise food. Or harvest meat. We are in the middle of the pacific. The most isolated place on earth. It boggles my mind how we import most of our food. It is CRAZY to think. I grow alot of our veggies right in our yard. Takes a ton of work no doubt. But to be able to eatwhat you grow is so rewarding. Not only the rewarding feeling, but the taste alone. Like night and day. Everyone on this planet should be able to sustain themselves at least a little bit. Have some knowledge and understanding about it. Much love and Aloha from the big island 🙏🏼❤️🤙🏼

after Listening to most people in your videos, they are children of the devil from every genre of false religions destined for eternal hell, and they blaspheme the true and only God almighty JESUS CHRIST by their worship and beliefs in their false gods they worship. repent and SERVE THE ONLY TRUE LIVING GOD JESUS CHRIST. 3¶“You must not have any other god but me. 22¶So Paul, standing before the council,fn addressed them as follows: “Men of Athens, I notice that you are very religious in every way, 23for as I was walking along I saw your many shrines. And one of your altars had this inscription on it: ‘To an Unknown God.’ This God, whom you worship without knowing, is the one I’m telling you about. 24¶“He is the God who made the world and everything in it. Since he is Lord of heaven and earth, he doesn’t live in man-made temples, 25and human hands can’t serve his needs-for he has no needs. He himself gives life and breath to everything, and he satisfies every need. 26From one manfn he created all the nations throughout the whole earth. He decided beforehand when they should rise and fall, and he determined their boundaries. 27¶“His purpose was for the nations to seek after God and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him-though he is not far from any one of us. 28For in him we live and move and exist. As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’ 29And since this is true, we shouldn’t think of God as an idol designed by craftsmen from gold or silver or stone. 30¶“God overlooked people’s ignorance about these things in earlier times, but now he commands everyone everywhere to repent of their sins and turn to him. 31For he has set a day for judging the world with justice by the man he has appointed, and he proved to everyone who this is by raising him from the dead.” 32¶When they heard Paul speak about the resurrection of the dead, some laughed in contempt, but others said, “We want to hear more about this later.” 33That ended Paul’s discussion with them, 34but some joined him and became believers. Among them were Dionysius, a member of the council, a woman named Damaris, and others with them. 4¶“You must not make for yourself an idol of any kind or an image of anything in the heavens or on the earth or in the sea. 5You must not bow down to them or worship them, for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God who will not tolerate your affection for any other gods. I lay the sins of the parents upon their children; the entire family is affected-even children in the third and fourth generations of those who reject me. 6But I lavish unfailing love for a thousand generations on those who love me and obey my commands. 7¶“You must not misuse the name of the LORD your God. The LORD will not let you go unpunished if you misuse his name (((((((1 JOHN 2 WARNING)))))) 22 And who is a liar? Anyone who says that Jesus is not the Christ. Anyone who denies the Father and the Son is an antichrist THE COMMANDS TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER MEANS TO KEEP GODS COMMANDS. INCLUDING THE ONES BELOW. 2 JOHN 1:5And now, dear lady, I am not writing you a new command but one we have had from the beginning. I ask that we ****LOVE ONE ANOTHER. 6And this is love(AND THIS IS WHAT LOVING ONE ANOTHER IS/MEANS): that we walk in OBEDIENCE TO HIS COMMANDS. As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love. *JOHN 14:21Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.” 22Then Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said, “But, Lord, why do you intend to show yourself to us and not to the world?” 23Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. 24Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me. 25“All this I have spoken while still with you. R0MANS 1: 28Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. 32Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them. GALATIANS 411I fear for you. Perhaps all my hard work with you was for nothing. 2 PETER 2 IS ONE OF COUNTLESS WORDS FROM THAT ARE LACKING 1But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them-bringing swift destruction on themselves. 2Many will follow their depraved conduct and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. 3In their greed these teachers will exploit you with fabricated stories. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping. 4For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them in chains of darkness to be held for judgment; 5if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others; 6if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly; 7and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the depraved conduct of the lawless 8(for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)- 9if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of judgment. 10This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the flesh and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, they are not afraid to heap abuse on celestial beings; 11yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not heap abuse on such beings when bringing judgment on them from the Lord. 12But these people blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like unreasoning animals, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like animals they too will perish. 15They have left the straight way and wandered off to follow the way of Balaam son of Bezer, who loved the wages of wickedness. 16But he was rebuked for his wrongdoing by a donkey-an animal without speech-who spoke with a human voice and restrained the prophet’s madness. 17These people are springs without water and mists driven by a storm. Blackest darkness is reserved for them. 18For they mouth empty, boastful words and, by appealing to the lustful desires of the flesh, they entice people who are just escaping from those who live in error. 19They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves of depravity-for “people are slaves to whatever has mastered them.” 20If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and are overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning. 21It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the sacred command that was passed on to them. 22Of them the proverbs are true: “A dog returns to its vomit,” and, “A sow that is washed returns to her wallowing in the mud.” 1 CORINTHIANS 10 IS NOT TO BE FORGOTTEN. 5Yet God was not pleased with most of them, and their bodies were scattered in the wilderness. 6These things happened as a warning to us, so that we would not crave evil things as they did, 7or worship idols as some of them did. As the Scriptures say, “The people celebrated with feasting and drinking, and they indulged in pagan revelry.” 8And we must not engage in sexual immorality as some of them did, causing 23,000 of them to die in one day. 9Nor should we put Christ to the test, as some of them did and then died from snakebites. 10And don’t grumble as some of them did, and then were destroyed by the angel of death. 11These things happened to them as examples for us. They were written down to warn us who live at the end of the age. 12If you think you are standing strong, be careful not to fall. 2 corinthians 19 You gladly put up with fools since you are so wise! 20In fact, you even put up with anyone who enslaves you or exploits you or takes advantage of you or puts on airs or slaps you in the face. 21To my shame I admit that we were too weak for that! 3But I fear that somehow your pure and undivided devotion to Christ will be corrupted, just as Eve was deceived by the cunning ways of the serpent. 4You happily put up with whatever anyone tells you, even if they preach a different Jesus than the one we preach, or a different kind of Spirit than the one you received, or a different kind of gospel than the one you believed. 5 But I don’t consider myself inferior in any way to these “super apostles” who teach such things. 6I may be unskilled as a speaker, but I’m not lacking in knowledge. We have made this clear to you in every possible way.

I was lucky enough to live in Kihei in the early 60’s, as a kid. The only resort was the Maui Lu. There was not a single condo, not one. We spent Christmas 1963 at Makena beach, which has been consumed by resorts. In 1963, we had the entire beach to ourselves until late in the day, when a local family set up at the opposite end for a picnic. We attended a Hawaiian church, services in Hawaiian. I went barefoot to Kihei elementary. Having that exposure has made Molokai hold a special appeal to me. I’m not wealthy, just a regular guy, and I would love to live there!

That’s because in some eyes he will never be considered a “local”. He will always be a “transplant” or “malahini” in other local eyes. Growing up “Haole” was used to describe white people from the mainland. It was in high school I learned “Haole” could also mean “those without breath” or describing those as non Hawaiians. But “Haole” was used exclusively on white people. I have never heard that word used on the Japanese, Koreans, Chinese, or Filipinos. “Popolo” is used to describe Blacks.

Ben's my favorite kind of people, easy to laugh, easy to smile! You can tell he has a good heart. Beautiful island, not what I expected. The red soil reminds me of my college town, Stillwater, OK. A lot of western Okieville has that same type of red soil. I hope Molokai stays simple like shown in the video. I think some of us know the Maui fires were off from the official narrative. That most people should be able to realize based on what the police did during the fires, how they prevented people from going to see the remnants of their residences, and what has gone on since. Stay strong, Lahaina!!!

Loved this! My dad is from Molokai! I came every summer until I moved to the mainland at 15. I just was there working in Kalaupapa from 2011-2020 as a RN! You should go down! Waiting to see my cousins and Aunties…lol. The wahine rock is down that hill. I hiked to it. Not all the Hansen’s Disease patients were thrown of the boat. Most were dropped off at the pier. My dad was a Luna at the Filipino camp! Organic farming would be great but Monsanto has already messed up some of the land. Great video…

When Ben mentioned Dole pineapple, my mind went straight to Monsanto 😡. I despise Monsanto! They are very present in Kauai as well😤. If they have ruined the soil, etc. it will take years in anything to get the soil back to its natural organic state! I pray Ben’s dream of having organic farming becomes a reality! I hope the beautiful people living there will not wait for outside help but come together and start organic farms 🙏🙏🙏

After months of seeing your videos of these places that I find so fascinating, that you actually end up on my home island! Love how you identified the difference of pidgin spoken between the locals vs when it's spoken to you. Saw you went past my brother's (dad's) place just as you were approaching the fire station. And like in your other videos, you always capture the essence of the place, of its people. Mahalo for showing Molokai as it is, and NOT how people want to make it, to entice other tourists just to "experience." You show the truth, which is what attracted me to your channel in the first place. Also, our town of Kualapuu was Del Monte which formerly was California Packing Corporation. I worked at Kualapuu Market when I was 17 yrs old to 18yrs old. And you drove past our house (formerly Japanese camp, but later we called it "New Camp" since the families started mixing or different races. Homestead was first opened up on Molokai in 1923 (Kalamaʻula), and later places like Hoʻolehua.

I'm a new subscriber and this is the first video I see. Peter, you truly found a gold mine with Ben. He truly made us the viewer as if he was speaking to us as he spoke to you. You also captured a big glimpse of what it used to be to live in the 90s. For the locals to keep the land as much as they can from development is great and astonishing. I commend you on your video and editing. Very well put together. I am now considering Ben as a bucket list to hunt, fish and hike with him. He is such a great down to earth host. Bravo Peter, bravo!! 👏 👏 thank you for sharing this. Molokai, here I come, someday!!!

Born and raised in Papakolea on Oahu, I have settled here raising my ohana along with my husband of 48 years. I appreciate your insight on our people. Your videos are unique because I see no judgment on the lifestyles you have encountered. Mahalo nui loa for your work.

This was Maybe 12 hrs ago. We had the locals help wit the works they showed me a few things. Very cool place. The shell station is still the same. I'm sure ace hardware is still their too.

OMG. "Is Molokai and Greater Hawaii sponsored by Toyota?" That line had us busting out laughing. We visited Maui last year and we kept commenting on how many Tacoma trucks we saw going down the road. Insane numbers of Toyota's there. I guess it's the same on Molokai as Maui. Everybody loves a reliable vehicle. I own two Tacoma trucks and the oldest one, a 2004 has almost 400k miles! Gotta love it. Great video Peter.

I was on Molokai. It is called the most Hawaiian island because mostly indigenous people live there. It’s very small - about 36 miles long and only 10 miles wide. Father Damien established a leper colony at one end of the island and also built churches early in the 20th century. The coast is spectacular with thousand foot waterfalls and sea caves. The surrounding ocean is crystal clear and abounds with sea tortoises, whales and a myriad of other marine life. Fruit grows wild for the picking. I loved it and would go back in a heartbeat.

It's not mostly indigenous people however a lot of Hawaiin Homeland is reserved here where it's supposed to only be native Hawaiians are allowed to own that land.. there are Japanese and Filipinos even more then native Hawaiians on Molokai they have a corruption that only certain people get the land .. alot of asian Hawaiians have land but not as many native Hawaiians as one might assume.. it's sad public corruption is everywhere even in hawaii.. I know native Hawaiians that been waiting for homestead land yet .. the ones related to asian People in government positions get it before some of the other familes living more traditionally then the modern ones

@janncarden2873 2 месяца назад
@@SenoraMadrid That’s interesting. I did not know that. It’s been quite a few years since we visited Molokai so perhaps more indigenous Hawaiians had their own land at the time…or not. What you’re saying may have been true even when we were there but the Hawaiians we met did have their own land and they weren’t wealthy or mixed race.

I was there in 1991, and it doesn't look any different! I love it! I met a rancher that called himself "Montana" so I got a kick out of the "Montana with an ocean view" comment. I loved the people there and ate at the "Cook House" every night...staying in Kahanakakei. Having lived on Maui twice, if I do return to the islands I would love to go there.

We travelled from Australia to Molokai 23 years ago.Friends of my Father in law split their time 50/50 between there and England.They had a condo in a complex right at the end of the island from memory.and we stayed with them.We loved how untouched it was and how relaxing after the hustle and bustle of Oahu.I can remember them telling us about the big developments that were happening there and was quite surprised to see they didn't go ahead.I hope the people do succeed and start growing/producing their own food etc.Was shocked to hear over 90% comes from off the island. Really enjoyed this video.Was nice to see it again.I'm sure people think we are making it up when we tell them we have been there😂
