Amateur Traveler Episode 184 – Travel to Oahu, Hawaii

Today the Amateur Traveler talks about beaches, Diamond Head and nightlife as we go to Oahu, Hawaii.

Welcome to the Amateur Traveler. I’m your host Chris Christensen. Before we get into this week’s interview, I do have some news stories for you. The first one as you probably heard is that Queensland, Australia “Best Job In The World Contest” did finish. A bloke from the United Kingdom will be getting paid $100,000 to promote Queensland over the next six months. But since you missed out on that, there is another opportunity for “Not The Best Job In The World” but what is being quoted as a “Really Good Job”, which is an offer to work for a winery as a blogger in Napa for six months with housing included at $10,000 a month. And then speaking of good opportunities, RailEurope is wanting you to party like it ‘s 1959. To promote their 50th anniversary, on May 12th they’ll be offering a EuroRail ticket at the 1959 rate of $125 for a 5-day, 3-country rail pass. And then another interesting opportunity, if you’re going on a cruise and you want to do some good while you’re there, then there’s a cruise to Alaska that might be able to help you. Juneau has a tour operator called Gastineau Guiding that is doing a deal with Holland America where as part of a shore excursion, you would help out the Alaska Marine Conservation Alliance by documenting individual humpback and orca whales. If any of those sounds interesting, check out the Show Notes at Amateurtraveler.com.

Chris: I’d like to welcome to the show, Robin who is coming to talk to us about Oahu in Hawaii. Robin, welcome to the show.

Robin: Thank you very much Chris.

Chris: And I was looking for an expert on Oahu and Robin you certainly fit the bill. You are, as I understand, a Conde Nest “Top Travel Specialist” for Hawaii since 2003. Did I say that correctly?

Robin: That is correct.

No One knows Hawaii and especially Oahu like Robin Kanno. She is the best and if you don’t book your trip with her you’re missing one of life’s great experiences.
