Dreaming of Maui

So I decided today that I want to live in a little bungalow in rural Maui for about 6 months. I was perusing the Maui Craigslist housing just for fun (http://honolulu.craigslist.org/mau/apa/?SAB=mau) and I found out that you get MUCH more for your money in Maui than you do in LA (which is probably the case for just about anywhere). When I'm feeling discouraged about the ridiculous rents in LA I like to look at what I get for the money in other places. I will never again think Maui is an expensive place to live! Here is the little cottage that I found in Haiku, complete with Loft and Tiki bar... amazing. And the rent is only $1150.... pocket change for paradise compared to a dump in Glendale.

I'm going to live in this little hut and sell fish tacos on the side of the road to all the surfers and Joe is going to sell fresh juice in a stand next to me. We are going to rent a crappy little Jeep and just wander the island, surf, and sleep in a hammock (separate hammocks....) on our lanai. Live off of fresh Mahi Mahi, sticky rice, spam and fresh fruits from our yard. We can spend our weekends writing and painting and playing music. We will just wear bikinis and board shorts every day so we can pack light.

You are all welcome to join.
