About Me

Aloha, my name is Sarah and I live on the Northshore of Kauai. I am passionate about agriculture and tropical fruit. Within the next few months (late April) I will finally be in the space again where I am able to host travelers. I spent my early 20s solo traveling 13 countries. Kauai pulled me in and is now my forever home :). I love this land and I am infinitely grateful to call this island home. I live in a off-grid tiny house on a fruit orchard in a small agricultural community. Currently, I only have camping available with access to my kitchen, composting toilet, and a shower. I have a tent and single air mattress available too. I do have another tiny house on this land that possibly could be available for short term renting.

If you are planning to visit Kalalau while on the island, I have many tips as I do the hike 2-3 times a year.

The island may be small, but it is not easy to get around without renting a car. There is a bus that travels the main road around the island, but it does not get you close to beaches, waterfalls, or trail heads. I know many people who rent out cars on the island if you would like to avoid major car rental companies. There is also a great website called Turo that is great for renting cars from locals.

I am selective with those who request visits. I am pretty busy, and sometimes dates just do not align with my schedule.
