on Parts Unknown: Hawaii, Anthony Bourdain went there exactly for that reason...he found that the locals like that thats what we think they feel and the truth is really more about them being openly hostile to people who try to commercialize and "disrespect" their land, customs and resources. This island is probably the closest to Hawaii's indigenous/polynesian culture of them all, hence why I want to visit

plus anywhere Bourdain went, i generally want to go.
