Aloha! - DPChallenge Forums

Hello Everyone!
I'm obviously new here, but not so new to the forums scene. I've been a part of many forums but found them all lacking... say... A HOBBY!
I've always enjoyed taking pictures and some people think I have a knack for it. I wish I hadn't been too late for the self-portrait challenge. Oh well... next time.
So I guess this is where I give a little info about myself.

22yrs, female, Hawaii with one (& ONLY one) child. I enjoy anything outdoors, listening to new music, da kine & my PC (a little too much).
Ahui ho!
:D

I'm not sure how many DPCers are based in Hawaii. Looks like about 9 of you! Volcanoes, rain forests, ocean shots, tourists--you've got some great stuff going on there! Welcome!

Hey, Kali! E' komo mai! Come on with da deets! Which island, Kama'aina or implant? If implant, how long there?

I had the blessing of living on the Big Island, Hilo side, for 10 years. Moved back to the ML almost 7 years ago and am still acutely homesick. Maybe some day......

Aloha nui loa!

Mahalo Kavamama!

I would be implanted here 3 years now. My other half is local and my little turd was born at Kapiolani. I'll prob'ly be leaving the islands in a few years :( but i will be venturing up to beautiful Oregon so it won't be so painful to leave. I'm on Oahu, Aiea to be exact.

Oh and i just uploaded an old pic of baby and i into my profile. Have a peek.

You are certainly not alone on this island. There are actually a few of us here at Hickam AFB, working as photographers and videographers, that use this site as training. So, from all of us to you ... aloha and welcome.

I saw the pic of you and da keiki, beautiful! Hope to see more of you both. We used to go to Waikiki when we got rock fever, stumbled around like country mice that we were, watching the hookers accosting the tourists. What a hoot! Plenty stuff to see on Oahu, but I surely hope you make it to the Big Island while you're there. Watch out, though, it kinda gets into your blood and the mana is intense. It'll never let you go no matter how far you stray! Send in lots of HI stuff to help relieve my homesickness! Again, E'komo mai!
