What makes my home unique: Facing "Natures Ocean Canvas" so Serene For guests, I always: keeping the kitchen stocked is a must I spend too much time: Talking, LOL, making new friends Fun fact: play Pickleball, and music moves me I'm obsessed with: Good food wine, friends & fam connection Speaks English and Spanish Lives in San Diego, CA I always described myself as Baloo the jungle book character, I hear music & if I like it, Im off moving to the beat. I enjoy people connection, and helping the underdog, has been my signature almost to a fault. I have been described with a flaring human spirit compared to the bursting into flame of tinder. Thus, a person who has this quality was said to have spunk. So there, Im spunky! things I really like,Board games Canoeing, Cooking, Dance, Food, Pickleball and Travel.

Mokuaikaua Church Located on Alii Drive directly across from the Hulihee Palace, at the harbor/downtown. This is the very first church the missionaries build on any island in Hawaii. The missionaries chose Kona as the first Christian establishment in 1820 by Asa and Lucy Goodale Thurston who arrived on the ship Brig Thaddeus. If you stop by for Sunday services, you will hear hymns being sung in the native language of Hawaii. St. Benedict’s Painted Church The church was erected in 1899 by Father John Velghe who, with no formal training, painted the interior of the church with scenes from the Bible and the lives of the Saints. His paintings, made from regular house paint, became important teaching tools in the time when many Hawaiians could not read or write.
