Who lives in Alaska???
My family and I decided that the suburban cul de sac we live on just does not supply the level of excitement and adventure that we need in our lives and for our kids, so...
We are planning our eventual move to the last frontier!!!
We will be moving far away from family and friends and we'd like to start meeting people now so that we have a few friends when we get there. The way we see it, we only have one life and frankly, why not take the plunge and try? If we move there and fail, then so be it. At least we would have done something instead of just dreaming.
This isn't some spur of the moment decision - we have been thinking and planning for quite some time. My job allows me to work from pretty much anywhere (I have been blessed by this), so we have a lot of flexibility. My wife has her own business. We are embarking on another entrepreneurial effort that may make this a lot easier financially. I also have a potential client in Juneau. We have talked to a few people that have lived there and have done tons of research - we know the pros and cons of living in Alaska.
We are planning a trip for a month or so next spring/summer and getting our house ready to be put on the market. Our plan is to move during summer of 2016 (maybe 2015 if our 2nd business takes off well). We plan on leasing a place in Anchorage for the first year. If we decide to stay, we will look for a place to buy and call our own.
We'd like to find other TBHers that live in Alaska and hopefully create some new friendships with like-minded people. It would be nice to visit you all while we are up there next spring/summer and get to know you all.
This is our dream and we are now doing something to make it a reality.
