Alaska Is...
Alaska for me can be summed up into one word…experience. Alaska is amazing and no one can tell you what to expect. I thought it was something totally different than I saw! It is mountains wherever you turn, random rainfalls, beautiful views, and amazing cities. I love it here and hope everyone can experience what I am experiencing.
