On Wednesday, a lawyer announced 30-year-old Hannah Kobayashi has been found safe, more than a month after she left Hawaii and prompted a lengthy search. 

Sara Azari, an attorney, issued a statement on behalf of Kobayashi's mother and sister. 

“We are incredibly relieved and grateful that Hannah has been found safe,” the statement said. 

“This past month has been an unimaginable ordeal for our family, and we kindly ask for privacy as we take the time to heal and process everything we have been through.”

The statement did not provide details about where or how Kobayashi was found. 

On Nov. 8, Hannah took a flight from Maui to Los Angeles, but missed her connecting flight to New York, where she was supposed to meet up with relatives. 

Authorities later said she intentionally missed her flight. 

After Hannah missed her connecting flight, she sent strange text messages to family and friends, causing them to be concerned for her safety and starting a search. During this time, Kobayashi’s father, who had flown to Los Angeles to participate in the search, died. Family members said he died by suicide. 

Earlier this month, the Los Angeles Police Department said Kobayashi disappeared voluntarily as she sought to “step away from modern connectivity.” Authorities said they obtained surveillance footage that showed her on Nov. 12, unharmed and crossing the border into Mexico.
