Good morning everyone! We're excited to share that we're now offering trips for individuals to join. Head to the Di**le Peninsula in Southwest Ireland with us this October -- learn to make traditional brown bread, hike the Di**le way, and play folk music with local musicians. Geared towards female-identifying travelers going solo or in pairs. Slainte!

Hello friends, I've just agreed to buy a generator for a family we are close with in Vinales, Cuba, and it's costing me $2000 for something that would cost $600 here. Cuba is going thorugh a massive crisis and the people in the countryside are suffering without electricity often. Food and water is also growing scarce.

Facebook doesn't allow personal fundraisers anymore (boo!), so I set up a GoFundMe fundraiser. But GFM said it will take at least 48 hours to review (boo again!)

So- until that gets set up, if you would like to contribute, you can venmo me . A photo of my QR code is in the photos section.

I'll update this post if we hit the $2k mark. And I'll post a photo of the generator delivered tomorrow. If I receive more than $2k I can either send the money back to you or I could maybe buy another generator for someone else in Cuba if there is that much love out there.

Oh, I don't actually send any money to Cuba. The generators are already there. After it's delivered and installed, I send money to Europe via Zelle.

Thanks, and dammit- end the embargo!

Maui is bleeding in many ways, and we have some important requests of our visitors:

• Visiting Maui Soon?
If you have plans to come in the next few weeks or soon, please postpone your trip. That being said, do not cancel it. Maui businesses will need your support more than ever, and the majority of the island is still great to visit. Priority needs to go to rooms, food, & supplies for the displaced.

Maui is bleeding in many ways, and we have some important requests of our visitors:

• Visiting Maui Soon?
If you have plans to come in the next few weeks or soon, please volunteer. Maui businesses will need your support more than ever, and the majority of the island is still great to visit.

DO NOT DRIVE TO LAHAINA! Have respect for the victims and their families. You’re not welcome right now. The only people that should be heading to Lahaina are emergency personnel, organized volunteers, and residents that need to be either reunited with loved ones or checking on their homes/businesses.

AirBnB, VRBO Owner?
• Let your guests change the date for another time. Then use the units to house the displaced temporarily. We still have thousands in shelters… Don’t be greedy. Show that you have Aloha and belong here as business owners!

Have reservations at a large hotel or resort?
• If they aren’t housing the displaced, GIVE THEM HELL! Most of these mega-resorts are owned by giant mainland corporations, and they don’t feel the Aloha quite the same way we do. Let them know their responsibility!

• Want to help?
Head to MauiRapidResponse.org for drop off locations, verified online donation sites, and more ways to help. And please share this post!

The core of our mission as a company is to meaningfully connect all kinds of people to facilitate mutual understanding and appreciation of each other. We stand unwaveringly with and are grateful for the bravery of everyone speaking out against the criminal acts of injustice happening daily to people of color in our communities. We are methodically developing anti-racism initiatives that use the tools and access we have for the cause, and will share them as soon as they are ready. Stay strong, everyone.

Here’s what leaders can do today.
