Kaiolohia Wrecks, USA

Perhaps the reasons listed above explain why time plays no role for local inhabitants. However, it may be connected with religious motives. Whatever the reason is, remember that there is almost no difference between today and tomorrow or this week and the next week. That is why locals always come late and forget about different things. If you’ve agreed with a local that he will take you somewhere on a certain day, you can not find him at the appointed time at the meeting place. But he can offer to take you to that place on the next week like nothing has happened.

If you want to increase the favour of the locals and feel at home here, you should give up the usual costumes and wear national clothes. Local men really love colourful shirts, but women wear muumuu- bright and sometimes quite shapeless dresses. However, there are also quite elegant and tight-fitting muumuus. For more immersion in the local culture, you can learn to dance the hula. The dance has existed here for more than a thousand years and it has many varieties. Some of them you can dance only during religious ceremonies, some can be danced only by royal people and the others are allowed to everyone. This local dance is taught in many schools throughout the island. So, even tourists without sports training can take classes.
