I traveled to Oahu and Maui for my 28th birthday and Hawaii didn’t disappoint. For starters, I recommend anyone traveling to Hawaii to review Hawaii traveling website for the required on entering the island because they are very strict, especially with COVID-19 testing. If you don’t have a negative COVID test result uploaded on their travel site with 72 hours of your departure from their TRUSTED TESTING PARTNER they will force you to quarantine for 14 days or the duration of your trip( they’ll even call your hotel to let them know). Maui was insanely beautiful, I felt like I was in a dream. I spent days at the beach(Wailea) was my favorite) and doing excursions. I did a snorkeling tour to lanai/dolphin watch and there was some pros and cons. The scenery was so beautiful and we got to see spinner dolphins(not snorkel with them. The food was disgusting “white people food” and the snorkeling was intense(not calm like I’m used to. Overall I wouldn’t recommend. I regret not snorkeling at molokini( I heard it was really beautiful and the waters are more clear). I enjoyed my tour of Oahu so much so I booked one in Maui with Viator with Maui fantastic tours. Do not book them, our guide “James Bond” was very rude and preoccupied with his own tasks and we breezed past the landmarks that he said we’d be spending time at. Make sure you stop at 808 grinds for the loco moco’s. Maui was very chill and a nice place to relax. It’s not as lively or exciting as Honolulu but overall I enjoyed my stay.

Honolulu, Hawaii was breathtakingly beautiful. In Oahu( Honolulu) I snorkeled with the turtles with Oahu catamarans(Groupon) and I got a great private tour of all Hawaii’s landmarks using toursbylocal. My tour guides name was Kirk and I defined recommend him. The tour was the highlight of my trip, there’s so many beautiful places and beaches(my favorite beach is lanikai) I got to visit with him that I would’ve never found on my own. Definitely stop at Lenards bakery in Honolulu for the malasadas(Portuguese doughnuts), teddys bigger burgers and dukes for the breakfast(the dinner was ok, desert was amazing but I loved the breakfast. Due to COVID-19 the nightlife is nonexistent and you can’t drink past 10 pm in a restaurant or bar. Overall I had an amazing time and would highly recommend especially in the pandemic.
I went to Paris on august 2019/September 2019 and it was an amazing experience although it had a sour ending. I stayed at the hotel de banville. The food at the hotel was nasty, but the hotel was decent. I went to various landmarks like the louvre via Uber. It’s pretty simple to get around via Uber or the bus if you can figure it out. Then I went to the south of France(nice, Cannes and Monaco) its a must see and the highlight of my trip. The last night was spent back in Paris where someone stole my purse (with my passport in it)literally in seconds while I was taking a picture so beware of the pick pocketers. Even with that crazy experience I thoroughly enjoyed my trip and wouldn’t hesitate to return.
I’ve always wanted to go to Maho beach because it looked new in all the pictures I’ve seen and I thought the airplane pictures would be cute. Please beware, it is a very dangerous beach as far as the planes go and the tide is very strong. There is barely any space for you to sit and put your belongings on the beach and they can wash away(which is what happened to me). It’s cute for pictures but the planes were a little too close for comfort for my liking. Go at your own risk but be prepared.
I stayed at the grand palladium. It’s a beautiful resort with a lot of fun activities and great hospitality. I loved the pool and the beach. The food wasn’t really all that but it wasn’t disgusting. The hotel can set you up with excursions.
