The reason HAWAII feels so wonderful to tourists and locals is more than just the astounding beauty. It is also the 1,500 years that the indigenous Native Hawaiian people have put their energy, their mana, their hearts and souls into the land itself that does so much to make Hawaii FEEL and be as wonderful as it is. This is the �spirit of Aloha.� By teaming up preservation of both the ecology AND native culture, we create a unique way to really help SOLVE the problem of preserving indigenous lands that have been colonized�in Maui, the rest of Hawaii, and perhaps in other parts of the world.
