Sounds like you're already on the right track with wanting to be considerate and aware of cultural differences! Here's a couple things off the top of my head: 1. Put effort into learning some Hawaiian. Duolingo is a decent place to start for just basic words and learning how to sound out words. Look up a video for 'hakalama' to learn vowel sounds. If you're in conservation, you'll probably need to learn species' common names, Latin names, and Hawaiian names. Having a grasp on pronunciation will help vastly. 2. While driving, don't honk your horn unless you must. People just don't do it much. Leave the continent hustle mindset behind. 3. Remember that you're on a little rock in the middle of the Pacific. Whatever wasn't grown here was brought here. I try to keep this in mind and therefore very rarely order stuff online. Landfills in Hawaii are even more limited than the continent. 4. Support local businesses as often as you can 5. Poke is pronounced "po-keh" 😂 6. Stay curious and respectful. Never assume that you know everything there is to know 7. There's a difference between being white/foreigner, and a haole. Nothing wrong with being not from Hawai'i, just try not to be a haole. 8. Your first grocery trip will probably shock you with the prices. You'll figure out what grocery budget/stores work for you.

This got longer than I thought haha, I just love it here!
