Alaska: Lonely Planet Travel Video

Experience Alaska with Lonely Planet author Greg Benchwick. You'll see more than 80 straight days of 24 hours of sunlight giving you plenty of time to admire the icy white landscapes of the Arctic ocean that's been home to the Inupiat people for thousands of years. Special note from Greg: Oops, I called the sealskin boat an 'upiak', but actually it's an 'umiak', 24 hours of sunlight can really mess with your head!

I live in a house in the wilderness of Alaska. I love sitting home on a cold day with my woodstove going and the snow falling outside. I curl up on my couch next to the window and read with a cup of coffee. I love my home! I was born and raised in alaska!!!

Moving to Alaska with my girlfriend in like 4-6 years :3

Which is quite ironic, as I'm moving from one of the most southern most states in the United States, to the Northern Most state. But I LOVE the cold, and dark, so WOO!
