Off the Beaten Path (2015) : 7x20

Our journey takes us to Maui, the second largest island in Hawaii. The western part is shaped by the West Maui Mountains, while the east is dominated by the dormant volcano Haleakalā, rising over 3,000 metres above sea level. Maui’s tropical climate is surprisingly diverse, ranging from dry, savanna like landscapes to lush rainforests and even cooler conditions at higher elevations. The island is also famous for surfing, with Pacific waves drawing visitors from around the world. One of them is Eva from Slovakia, who arrived ten years ago in search of spirituality and found a new home and family here. Today, she organizes weddings and events, fully embracing island life. We begin in Lahaina, exploring local markets, tasting fresh Hawaiian poke, visiting a dragon fruit farm, and learning to make traditional flower leis.
