Are you working remotely during the pandemic? This may be your two-way ticket to (temporary) paradise. Hawaii is currently accepting its first group of applicants for its brand new "Movers and Shakas" program, which would offer free round trip tickets to Oahu to out-of-state remote workers who want to live and work there while contributing to the state’s economy during the pandemic.

Jason Higa founded the group and says "Movers and Shakas is a small step towards economic recovery and diversifying our economy.”

If you'd like to work remotely from paradise, you can apply now through December 15th - you must be a remote worker and be 18 or older. Participants must move within one month of being selected and are required to spend at least 30 consecutive days in Hawaii.
