Hawaii: Sue Wong, fashion designer

My partner and I have a home in Maui. We go six to eight times a year. It’s in a place called Kipahulu. There are famous sacred pools there. Charles Lindbergh is buried in Kipahulu, at Palapala Hoomau Church. Recently I went with my best friends, artists Koji Takei and Jayme Odgers. The most interesting thing was connecting with Taoist master Alfred Huang. He wrote the definitive new translation of the I Ching. He hung out with us. It was transformative.

Discovery: My favorite place is Hamoa Beach, halfway between Hana and Kipahulu. James Michener called it the most perfect beach.
