My brother and his girlfriend may be moving with us, she is a college professor hoping to get a teaching job close to Wahiawa if not in Wahiawa.
The nearest college is currently Leeward Community College in Pearl City (approximately 10-12 miles south of Wahiawa), but University of Hawaii, West Oahu will open soon, if it has not already; UH will be approximately 10 miles to the southwest of Wahiawa.
There is some decent housing in Wahiawa, but much of it is smallish. The best community in the area is actually in Mililani (approx 7 miles south of Wahiawa). The schools are quite good in this community and it has a southern California feel to it. Good luck on your move.

In Hawaii - those things traditionally stay with the home when you purchase it. Regardless - it would be very expensive to ship and not cost effective.

That's hard to say without the specific work experience. The Masters in Science may open some doors - is it from an US University? Some places require PMI. I'd have to understand better the specific job you'd want and experience. The languages don't buy you anything like they could in a place such as California. 4 years experience, an off the top guess that could be way off - $50K.

I just noticed in another post you are in Serbia - I don't see any employers in Hawaii sponsoring visas unless it is a highly exceptional case.

Oh, just what it is like to live there and why you chose that area.
It seems like an area we would like but I haven't stayed overnight there or spent extended time there.

Depends on your specific shipping container: We didn't want to ship empty space, so we packed it with everything we anticipated to be more expensive or not available in Hawaii. I.e. IKEA furniture, kayaks, appliances.
