Was your relocation paid by the contracting company? Congrats if so. Three months of training or some such on Oahu? There aren't many places a federal contractor could be based on Maui; the two that come to mind are the Maui High Performance Computing Center at Kihei and the observatories on Haleakala. What kind of work will you be doing?
Good luck in Hawaii!

Not much longer to Hawaii time.Unfortunatly I will be paying to relocate.I will have all costs paid for by employer related to business expenses which is way cool.I have 3 months of marketing and an active contract on Oahu, Pearl Harbor to keep me busy.Then we have an office on Maui, Makawao I will ultimately be managing from as we anticipate work on all Islands including Guam and American Samoa.Our company only works Federal and we do everything from service, supply, construct.Best wishes Aloha !!

I hope you keep us uninformed of your tales of Hawaii. Always curious to see how others make the transition. My first year required some adjustment, as can be expected. But this is a great place to be!

I'll keep updating my progress.I thinks it helped me to read about others and their experienceses. I now know the gut wrenching of leaving everything behind and transitioning to a new life.It is said to be happy stress. I just look forward to settling in and looking back saying, We did it !!
