About The Author

Aloha I'm Ruth! I am incredibly passionate about the Hawaiian culture and language, which led me to write extensively, sharing my knowledge and love for the Island. Whether it's teaching how to say 'Akua' or 'all done', or extending greetings like 'Good Afternoon' and 'Good Job', I've got it all covered in English and Hawaiian. Besides writing, I love savoring shaved ice by the beach and paddling in crystal clear waters. I find solace in the beauty of night-blooming jasmine and the vibrant dance of sunshine on ocean waves. Tahitian is spoken not far from Hawaiian, and it has become another language close to my heart, so you will now find my guides to Tahitian here too. Mahalo nui loa (Thank you very much) for reading my pieces. Keep the aloha spirit alive!
