I hope you are feeling better today Cece.
Upcountry is anywhere along the slopes of Haleakala. Paia and Twin Falls are kinda on the edge of going upcountry. We love it for Haleakala, the winery that's up there, Makawao (which is a small artsy town) and our farm stands that we frequent. We also got married at a small tropical garden that's upcountry.
