This week we have a very special episode for you! Every client I interview I always ask what they like and dislike about Alaska and what some of the pros and cons are about the 49th State from their perspective. This week, we completed many of these episodes for you to give you the ultimate feedback about Alaska so you can start your own pro and con list and decide if Alaska is right for you!
Regardless of how much research you do about Alaska and particularly the winters in Alaska, you won't know what it's like until you have experienced it. For that exact reason I sat down with my past clients who have just experienced the first winter season in Alaska to find out what it is really like and how their overall experience in Alaska has been so far!
