Now for 10 reasons why I am positive Kauai is my favorite place in the world to visit:
*The air here heals me. My skin feels like it gets a big glass of water, and my lungs feel like they get rinsed clean by the ocean breeze.

*The fruit is just unreal. You know how, when you go on a vacation sometimes, and you feel like you’ve eaten more junk than normal and like you are more than ready to get back to your normal eating? Not in Kauai, I feel like I get to eat the freshest food all day, which makes me feel like a million bucks. (PS, do you eat the skins of mangos? We do!)

The Farmers Market adds to the deliciousness…

Please eat a sushi burrito at some point in your life.

*They are on my kind of schedule here… Up early, outside all day, and everything closes and shuts down early in the evening. We are all showered and in PJs by 6 pm here.

*I love to read everywhere, but I really love reading on the beaches here. It’s the most peaceful place. I was reading at Hanalei Bay yesterday when my book began to talk about the character’s trip to this exact spot! What are the odds?

*Obviously, the views.

*Magically, everyone wants to run here with me. The running is so great. One of my favorite parts is drooling over the homes I run by and dreaming of one day having a beach house;). Also, the hiking here is incredible. They have had a ton of rain lately, which made the trails super muddy, so we skipped them this trip because they would have been pretty hard for Beck.

*The snorkeling is perfect.

*The wildlife. The turtles, the monk seals, the dolphins, the whales, the fish, the birds, the chickens everywhere… We are all in awe here.

*The food isn’t cheap and neither are the flights but all we want to do is play at the beaches for hours upon hours which is free…

*The beautiful food. Wait, I already talked about this, but I LOVE the food here.
