How did I spend my summer<br />
By Bryce Lim<br />
Traveling to a place that is<br />
so different from your homeland<br />
is an exciting and informative<br />
experience. During my trip to<br />
Hawaii, I was able to witness<br />
nature’s beauty, and I was able<br />
to see sights that I usually do not see in California.<br />
Summer Time<br />
Additionally, I learned some of the Hawaiian culture and<br />
lifestyle. The first thing that stood out to me about<br />
Hawaii were the large amounts of vegetation that were<br />
present on the island.. The overall exotic feeling of the<br />
island was a big change from California. From the lush<br />
forests and vast oceans to the sprawling fields and deep<br />
canyons, I felt as though I had entered another dimension.<br />
In addition to the sights, I was able to learn some of the<br />
Hawaiian language, and I was introduced to the Hawaiian<br />
way of living. It surprised me how similar Hawaii was to<br />
the Philippines, such as the<br />
shack- like houses and small<br />
communities. Overall, my trip<br />
to Hawaii was a breath of fresh<br />
air from the monotone city life<br />
of where I live.<br />
