One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On the pali coast of Kauai, there's a valley called Nualolo 'Aina. To get there you have to kayak to the next valley over, swim around the point, and get up on the rocks in the surf. It's full of lo'i, kalo terraces from the old hawaiians, and steep side valleys. It's a really special place to me.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to teach a beginner how to play his/her first song on the guitar.
