At Home on Oahu

The first couple days that we spent on Oahu were a whirlwind of finding our way around, adjusting to Curtis’ new job, and making one of our biggest decisions as a couple: picking out our first home. We looked at so many places in our first 4 days here and learned so much about everything pertaining to home buying, all while adapting… Read More
