So, I land in paradise thinking that I have a place to stay, only to discover after 20 hours of flight that I cannot stay where I had planned.
In a sleep deprived fog I book myself into a very pricey resort for two nights: an expense I hadn’t planned for and really couldn’t afford.
Knowing that I needed to figure out a plan for the rest of the week, I started asking Active Rain and Twitter friends for some advice. That is when Georgina Hunter Maui Realtor R(S) stepped in. I sent her a message and with very little time she started to send me options for places to stay. She took time out of day to try to help a total stranger and I appreciated her assistance more than I can say. I had felt all alone and then I reached out and suddenly I didn’t feel so lost because I had an active rain connection.
So Mahalo to Georgina for making me feel less adrift in a foreign place…you are amazing!
Another Mahalo to a REALTOR that I have invited to join our group, hope he takes me up on it! Ken Wong at CB Island Properties in Kihei, Maui was another one that was happy to come to my assistance in this very strange time. He was friendly, helpful and kind and I appreciated everything he did.
I hope you all learn from this and remember to reach out to your community here if you need a hand. Transversely, if you are in a bind, don’t be afraid to ask for help…I guarantee I will pay it forward!
