"My favorite thing about Hawai’i has been the public transportation. Back in New York, it's very chaotic but here it's more my speed. Dani is from is Queens, New York and has lived in Hawai‘i for nine months; she has wanted to move to Hawai’i since 2008. When she isn't busy with school and studying, she likes to binge watch shows.
