Honolulu as seen by Monocle
Interesting View of the Place I live
Hmm. A slightly British accent commentating on Honolulu, Hawaii..the place I live most of the year. When I lived in Chicago, we would pretty much stay in the same 30 mile radius. So not much has changed living here. I would be considered a Townie. It takes me about 10 minutes to go almost everywhere in my car. A bit less than a 30 mile area.
This Monocle Travel Guide to Honolulu is pretty decent. Other than a bit more in depth view of Downtown-Chinatown and some more beach activity. They did a nice job on the hipster aspects of where I live.
Here’s a quick list of some of the places viewed and the names of the people to ask for when you get to these places:
- Hawaii Theatre: John
- Beach Vollyball: KC
- Panama Hats: Ryan
- Blue Note: Martha or Kristin
The only place, I’ve never been on their list is the Livestock Tavern. Guess I better check it out!
I liked the wording Tropical Modernism that’s a good take on our Sunny Island Paradise. And their tag line is pretty cool. City’s are Fun, Let’s Explore. See you on the Streetz!
