Motorhomeless Hotel

An article in the local newspaper detailed a new aspect of the tourist industry in Hawai’i ... “mobile vacation rentals.” The focus of the article was one such vendor, Hippie Bus Hawai’i, which essentially is a dilapidated shuttle bus parked along the Kapi’olani Park corridor. The vendor squeezes up to six people in the “piece of shit” and charges each moron about $30 per night.

For Rent

The grifter who owns the bogus enterprise is jeopardizing the life-style of the many motorhomeless who have no choice but to “live” in their vehicles. In addition, there are several of these “mobile vacation rentals” in operation at this point in time. A Draconian crackdown by the authorities is inevitable. Needless to say, the current plan for future motorhomelessness is now in doubt.

Of course, what is puzzling is that there are tourists who would spend money to visit Hawai’i and essentially experience the homeless life-style. Every venue, every “attraction” ... all extremely expensive. There is nothing cheap here. Saving money on sleeping accommodations will not reduce the other exorbitant costs.
