About the host
Hosted by Karla Swarens
I'm your host, Karla. I've been a musician for many years and my husband, Jason does marketing for an online children's education company. We came to Hawaii on our honeymoon decided someday we would move here. So here we are. We fell in love with this part of Hawaii because it is so green and lush compared with Los Angeles where we spent so many years. We love the slower pace as well and we're extremely happy about the fact that we never sit in traffic anymore! :)
Jason loves the ocean and surfing. I love the mountains and hiking and there is no shortage of places to go on the island to keep us both happy.
We love exploring, meeting new people and sharing what we learn about the beautiful places we find along the way.

Why they chose this property
The neighborhood, the fantastic ocean views and the peaceful community. Beautiful hikes that are walking distance from the house, or plenty of other Hamakua coast activities that are less than 15 minutes drive from the house. Our studio is a great place to make your 'base camp' where you can have a nice shower, get a comfortable nights sleep and then take day trips around the northern part of the island to see all it has to offer. We are out of town, but not so remote that we're completely isolated. The location is a good, happy medium.
