What It's Like To Live In Alaska

Fun fact: it's not cold all the time. My new Alaska video: What It's Like To Live In Alaska (Winter Edition) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMyy4uJclN0 I was born and raised in Fairbanks, Alaska, which means my non-Alaska-born peers often find this fascinating. (Understandable. It's a pretty dope state.) Caitlin, who's been my close friend since college, once humorously noted how she has heard people ask me this question dozens and dozens of times: "What's it like to live in ALASKA??" So while visiting my homeland of Fairbanks, Alaska last year, my friend Caitlin Cowie and my sister Julie Barsi and I decided to make this video. We thought it'd be a fun way to share both the epic and quirky things we love about "the last frontier." We went to all our favorite hometown spots and even trekked to the nearest hot springs and, of course, to Denali National Park. Keep in mind, this video only touches the tip of the iceberg of the awesomeness that is Alaska, but it's a start. Hope you enjoy! (P.S. We HIGHLY recommend you try Hot Lick's Homemade Ice Cream if you're ever in the great state of Alaska. Because once you go Hot Lick's you can never truly go back. http://www.hotlicks.net/ Alaska Blueberry ice cream FTW. xoxo) ----------- Find us on Twitter if you like!
