International & EU Plus Membership (2 Art Correspondence + Letter)
Every month, a little piece of Hawaiʻi arrives in your mailbox—original art, meaningful words, island stories, personal encouragement, and something especially personal: handwritten correspondence from me, written just for you.
The International Correspondence Edition includes the same two featured works of art, the complete Aloha Life Letter, private videos, and free shipping as the U.S. membership, for the same $17/month. The experience is simply designed a little differently for mail traveling beyond the United States. Instead of arriving as separate art prints, the artwork becomes part of the correspondence itself—beautifully reproduced on either one illustrated greeting card or two postcards, which I personally write on before mailing from my home on Kauaʻi.
What You'll Receive Each Month
Two Original Works of Art by Kelly Valencia (Reproduced) from Hawaiʻi: Both of the month’s featured artworks by Kelly Valencia, beautifully reproduced on either one premium double-sided illustrated greeting card or two postcards, created especially for international correspondence. The format varies from month to month.
A Personal Handwritten Note Just for You: This is what makes the International Correspondence Edition especially personal. Inside your greeting card or on the backs of your postcards, I’ll write to you by hand—real pen-pal correspondence filled with a little extra encouragement and aloha, written here on Kauaʻi before your mail begins its journey across the miles.
The Complete Aloha Life Letter: My full monthly letter, filled with personal stories, reflections, encouragement, life lessons, glimpses of life in Hawaiʻi, and ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi. Each letter is written by me, Kelly Valencia, and printed in a font created from my own handwriting on beautiful, high-quality stationery.
Private Video Edition: Watch or listen as I read your monthly letter aloud, followed by a Hawaiian language lesson exploring the pronunciation, meaning, usage, and cultural context of the month’s featured ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi word or phrase—perfect for accessibility, listening on the go, or a more personal and immersive experience.
Local Flavor: Discover a taste of Hawaiʻi with a monthly recipe inspired by the foods, flavors, and local favorites enjoyed across the islands—along with a little background about what makes each dish special.
An Authentic Snail-Mail Experience from Kauaʻi: This isn’t something printed and shipped from a fulfillment center. It’s real, tangible correspondence thoughtfully prepared in Hawaiʻi and sent to your physical mailbox each month.
Birthday Month Bonus Print: Because birthdays deserve a little extra aloha! During your birthday month, you’ll receive a bonus signed art print tucked into your monthly mailing—my birthday gift to you.

Same Aloha Life Letters experience. An even more personal way to receive it. And every now and then, your correspondence may arrive in an unexpected form—perhaps even handwritten on the back of an original piece of art—just because that’s what friends do.
Please note: The International Correspondence Edition is designed for subscribers located outside of the US and its territories as one double-sided illustrated greeting card or two postcards, each carrying a personal handwritten note, which helps keep each monthly mailing simple and minimizes potential customs complications. International mail may still be subject to customs duties, taxes, or other import charges determined by the recipient’s destination country. Any applicable charges are the responsibility of the recipient.
