I would highly recommend making your Big Island home base with Paul. He is very friendly and communicative, and thoughtfully responsive to newcomers and seasoned travelers to the Big Island. True Aloha! He made it very easy to plan the trip in to his place, which I was appreciative for, because I was scheduled to come in late in the evening. There was no question about where to go or what to do, and after a long flight, that's what you want. This trip was for a conference, which was subsequently cancelled due to the COVID-19 outbreak. I was (and still am!) sorely disappointed that I was unable to take that trip, including staying in the tiny house and meeting Paul. My experience with Paul was stellar all around, and I intend on staying at his place (hopefully the tiny house!) when I am able to get back to the Big Island.
