Born and raised on Maui, Randalyn spent her formative years adventuring around the island. Through her time spent exploring, Randalyn has fostered a spiritual connection with the island and has “always believed that Maui provides.” She believes spending time outside benefits one’s overall well-being, including mind, body, and spirit. “Being out in nature is like a form of therapy for me. And I get to socialize, connect with guests, and have a rainforest for an office.”
As a way to honor her connection to the island, Randalyn shares these three Hawaiian words with her guests: kuleana—being responsible with their own limitations and boundaries; malama—taking care of the land and each other on the tour; and that everybody in the van is part of a big ‘ohana (family). “No one’s going to get left behind or forgotten, and if you don’t know someone’s name, just call them ‘auntie,’ ‘uncle,’ or ‘cousin.’”
