Work Trade in Hawaii: My First Week on The Big Island

Aloha, my sweet friends!
I recently arrived to Hawai’i to live for the next few months. I am doing a work trade at a Meditation & Yoga Retreat Center on the Big Island that is vegan, gluten free, and smack dab in the middle of the jungle. I am so grateful for this opportunity and to share the journey with you.

I’m planning on doing this soon and shipping my car. If you get a negative COVID test before you go, do you have to quarantine upon arrival or not? And are these farms cool with having a mellow small dog? I’ve done all I care to in Colorado, Florida, and California...I think Hawaii is my next destination before New Zealand. Great honest video!

So it depends on the island you are going to...for The Big Island, I tested negative within 72 hours prior to my flight and I had a rapid test once I landed. But if I didn’t do that, I would have had to quarantine for 10 days. You’ll have to ask the farm on if they are open to having a dog...it varies place to place! LMK if you have any other questions I’m hoping to get to NZ in the next year or so :)
