Kalalau Beach on the Napali Coast of Kauai gives a surreal glimpse of what our planet once was: pristine, beautiful, and not over-run with humans and their troubles. Only accessible by an 11 mile hike along crumbling, sheer sea cliffs, Kalalau manages to keep away those who are not willing to work incredibly hard, face humbling fears, and become one with the primitive ways of nature at its best. The nights at Kalalau were electric with crashing waves, a celestial light show, and the strongest cosmic giggle I have experienced in some time.

To love and be loved is an essential part of being human, but to be surrounded and supported by every person you love at once is a powerful experience. There are countless individuals who touch us in our lives, but those family and friends who have played a lasting role compare to none other. I am eternally grateful for those people, this human experience, and the man who opened my heart wider than I realized was possible.
