Sorry, can’t help with free accommodations on Maui :-( but would like to connect with you when you guys are here on the Island in Feb / March for diving - I’ll be around.
I moved from San Jose, CA where my wife and I lived for over 30 years but we fell in love with Maui 20 years ago when we bought our place on the Island and visited at least for a month every year. Now was a good time for us to make the permanent move. We still pinch ourselves every morning to make sure it’s real to be here permanently on Maui!
