Words can’t really describe this trip, except that this was one of the best and most important things I’ve ever done. It definitely put things into perspective despite my personal feelings on military matters. I’m in awe of our service men and women and have so much gratitude for them ❤️. Mahalo @theuso @thejointstaff and @braddahwes for allowing me to partake in this incredible experience. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat! And shoutout to all the Hawaiians I saw during the tour. You all make me so proud! More pics to come. Gonna go cry now… #USOTour2020 #thejointstaff #supportthetroops #Romania #Poland #WashingtonDC #BellatorMMA #HawaiiansinEurope #TeamHawaii #pineappleprincess #ilimanator
