How They Started Talking
What caused this to happen? The couple was curious about life in Hawaii, so Chandara was asked how she came to live on the island and how she liked it so far. In response, the young waitress explained how she was barely scraping by on 80-hour weeks.
Giving Up On Her Dream
During her talk with the Australian couple, she mentioned to them how she had to give up her dream just to get by. Chandara told KHON, “I told them I moved here for school, but I was kind of in a little bit of debt and I couldn’t go back to school, because I couldn’t afford it.”
