Capturing the Beauty of Hawaii

This is why you need to go to Hawaii. The magic felt here is indescribable. The people, the nature, the wildlife - you truly cannot find it anywhere else in the world. Make sure you check out the other videos in this series if you haven't already!
Thanks to Nikon for Sponsoring this video! The Nikon Z6 was the perfect camera for me to film this series on - it was great for vlogging on and perfect for capturing the most beautiful, cinematic footage. Some of the highlights for me were the smooth and seamless autofocus, the incredible stabilization and the low light capabilities. Check it out here! - bit.ly/2EnbqJg
p.s. a few establishing shots were filmed on a drone but everything else was filmed on the Z6! 😊

I cannot wait to visit Hawaii. It's such a beautiful place. The geology alone fascinates me, the culture is icing on the cake!

[@dennis.35th]

Totally blown away. I wish one day most people on earth will think and act like you. Thank you for who you are. And for what you do.

[@RayaWasHere]

Thank you for watching and supporting me! It really means to me ❤️

[@dennis.35th]

@@RayaWasHere fan right from the start. Such a special journey and moments so far. I hope that you're having a beautiful day 😉☀️

[@katewinter481]

Another amazing video, another amazing poem. I really enjoyed watching this element series. Beautiful visuals. I love the explanation of breath and kiss, of honi. Really well done!

[@lenani9143]

Beside the obvious - that this series is shot beautifully -, I also appreciate how much you show about the culture, it’s super interesting to me

[@jgirl345]

That water, just wow!

[@mond5601]

Beautiful!

[@DreamExploreEnjoy]

This is such a beautiful series! It's making me want to go to Hawaii and explore nature!

[@addisonperry790]

Wow this is stunning, the visuals and music and poetry all together are just beautiful. I loved how you included the part where you learned about honi. The more I learn about Hawaii and its distinct culture the more I want to visit and learn. You’ve always done an amazing job of inspiring people to care more and learn more about people and places all over earth, and to do so responsibly. Thanks for sharing your time in Hawaii!

[@RayaWasHere]

[@kezzien56]

Would love to learn how to breath someday 💯

[@ChristinaSears]

LOVE THIS! I agree seeing live whales in the wild is on my bucket list and I think I would also cry like a baby. I did when I saw dolphins in Australia... something about them... if it was an Orca... I think I would sob like a baby... honestly!

[@Nicoleinanutshell]

Such a beautiful series! I loved the idea of incorporating the elements 🙏🏻

[@JeffBlankenship]

[@Lavish_And_Delightful_Britain]

yr vlogs are so relaxing to watch often i forget all the daily stresses of life

[@RayaWasHere]

Wow this is such a sweet comment, thank you!! ❤️

[@maegannmike9324]

Raya this was so beautifully captured, I really felt it in my heart and soul. It reminded me of my connection to my culture which I have lost and so long forgot. I am native to Canada and our whole livelihood came from Mother Earth, and our people loved it so much, but we lost touch with that. Thank you for bringing my connection back 💖

[@RayaWasHere]

Wow thank you so much!! Thank you for sharing that ☺️❤️

[@nanibraveheart3820]

As always loved your videos. I feel at peace again

[@lauracorinne6380]

Loved this series! Well done Raya! xxx

[@RayaWasHere]

Thank you so much Laura! ☺️

[@john_gyver]

3:55 - I could greet a girl this way - no problem, but doing it with a man - no way :) Nice video.

[@RayaWasHere]

That’s why it’s so beautiful! In Hawaii it’s in no way a sexual or romantic gesture. It’s two humans taking a moment to greet and respect each other ☺️

[@spek1174]

after watching this I feel so trapped. Working from 6 - 5 daily. living such a busy lifestyle, feeling completely drained at the end of the day then starting it over again the next day, all to make so little but making it huge for someone else. I'd love to travel and see the world. just seems impossible

[@Pxndaaa]

I love your video and hat is a beautiful and I one to you do more and i love you to ❤️😍

[@sandyc6569]

Beautiful!!!!!!!! xoxooxoxo

[@WoundedViking]

Well-done Raya.. amazing vibes. I survived cancer twice and lost half my face to amputation.. a tumor destroyed my jaw and changed everything.. I was labeled a freak. I decided to start over, travel South America and start a youtube channel to inspire others who feel ugly and not good enough for this world.. it's all about energy and mindset.. my scars will not define me. with optimism and positive projection you can overcome any mental or physical hurdle. self love from within overpowers any physical shell! go check me out and subscribe if you want to help me grow. i want to give people a spark of change and join me on my journey!

[@jupiteronkauai]

Aloha from Kauai

[@RayaWasHere]

Aloha! ☺️

[@TiffanyGriffith]

Wow you're content is breathtaking! So pure and beautiful I signed up for your 7 Day Challenge and I cannot wait to start on this journey!

[@nataliem4271]

Had to watch this more than once - absolutely beautiful work

[@RayaWasHere]
