Alaska Is...

       Alaska is…Well Alaska can be described with many different words, these words are sometimes hard to find. This has been my second trip here and it doesn’t get any better than this. Alaska is full of many amazing things, from the mountains, to the ocean, to the wildlife. The saying a picture is worth a thousand words may be used with Alaska; whereas Alaska is the picture, but not just a picture it’s an amazing work of art. Alaska may be described as that one person you have always wanted, that one girl you know you can’t have, yet you still long for her. But Alaska is much bigger than that one person, and Alaska is much different than them. Not just in the way that Alaska is a giant part of the earth but in the way that Alaska has been achieved. Alaska is amazing, it makes you realize that if you try hard enough and you work for what you think you deserve you can earn it.  So at this I will finish the sentence “Alaska is...” If you truly want to know you should make it your goal to get there. But until then I will say Alaska is the best place on earth, a place of change, the most beautiful world, and Alaska is for all to enjoy.

Final Reflections

Alaska is just as amazing the second time around. Looking back I see that I could have done a better job as a leader. But also see that I tried to get where I was. If I hadn’t made a second attempt the first time around I would not have been here ever. This trip is amazing and I wish I were coming back again next year.
