Quality of Life on Moloka‘i | Insights on PBS Hawai'i

I just watched this PBS program for a second time. It's been a year and a half since my wife and I moved here. Over that period of time Molokai grew on us. Mike, the bartender from Paddlers came to our table one day at lunch time to welcome my wife and me to the island. (He noticed I, too, was a veteran when he saw my credit card.) I've a message for Mike: You and every other person I've met or had any contact with of any kind, have all made living on Molokai as close to Heaven as one can get. Here on Molokai we are all one big Ohana. You folks truly are special. So, too, is Molokai. Thank you all very much for this wonderful program. Aloha & Mahalo! Andy McKane, Maunaloa, Molokai.

Thank you. Interesting Discussion! Always wanted to visit MOLOAKI since 1973. I am old now and enduring a brain tumor. “Saint Father Damien and Saint Mother Marianne, pray for us🙏🌹💕”

"Aloha only appreciates in value "

I live in Michigan, but visited the Big Island a couple years ago and loved every bit of it. Molokai is facinating as well. I have watched many YouTube videos about moving to Hawaii, and done lots of reading. I doubt I could really ever pull it off, but my dream would be to move there, or maybe the "happy medium" would be to spend a couple months there during the winter when we retire. I know the cost of living is high, but here in Michigan, we also spend a lot to heat our homes in the winter and maintenance on our vehicles (OMG, the potholes in Michigan due to freeze & thaw, as well as years of neglect are horrible), so I wonder if it may even out a bit, at least in the winter. Anyone w/ experience as a "snowbird" (what we call those who go to a warmer climate, usually Florida, in the winter)?

Nice conversation. Thank you.

Love molokai. Much mahalo's for this.

Well I was in love then you mention Monsanto! Just like in days of old slave traders would cast trinkets and shiny things that appear to have value on the shore. The "NIEVE" unsuspecting natives would run out to take them. They would then be caught in a net and takin into slavery! That's what's happening here! So sad!

Why is the host pronouncing the place differently than the locals? Moloka-ie to their Molo-kai...

I used to work at Kalua Koi, and lived in Mauna Loa. Good times

Molokai... not Moloka ee.  Thank you for this video.

Lara, thank you for announcing moloka'i the proper way, im sure the kupuna are happy to hear you say moloka'i correctly, i don't hold anything against your native guest because they were raised specking english, just saying the name of the island the way they say it is change to much that i don't think they realize.

When I listened to the Solatorio ohana from Molokai, they said their island is Molokai not Moloka'i❤😊

I proud of you mike for admitting your problem and i will pray for all who need help in turning away from that drug that is destroying our nation.

Please say aloha to Doreen from Kukui, the tour operator at Molokai Hotel! I used to live and work on Oahu and would stay at the Kahlua Koi Resort every time I had a long weekend, but loved my stay at the Molokai Inn last October 2019.

I don’t get it what do windmills have to do with anything?

Thank you. I want to visit MOLOAKI ...KALAUPAPA....because I would like to visit where Saint Father Damien lived! Would love to go to the Bread Factory, too. Any Medical help on MOLOAKI? Only a week stay....I don’t want to bother anyone.... All a dream..... Love to all in Molokai❤️🙏

Molokai has alot of dope heads😉😉😉
