I just want to spend all fucking winter in Hawaii like I've been trying to do without feeling goddamn poor before/during/after.

Try Thailand. Better food, politer people, hella cheaper. A weekend on Ko Samet costs about as much as lunch at the Sheraton Kauaii.

Why Hawai'i? Everyone I've met from there complains about how expensive it is . . .

Because it's the most beautiful place on earth in my humble opinion!

Fair enough. I'm a pretty huge fan of tropical locales, especially ones that are not too messed around with in terms of development. If you ever get tired of Hawai'i, I suggest you check out the growing eco-tourism in SE Asia. Thailand was mentioned, but Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines all have some pretty sweet environs as well.

Every time I find a "most beautiful place on Earth" I find another one. I like it that way.

Oh me too! Traveling is the most exciting thing. I guess the plain ticket is the main thing putting me off from going to SE Asia at the moment. But Hawaii isn't much cheaper... hell maybe I'll just drive to the Florida Keys.
