Keeping this travel blog enables me to reflect and record my journeys as well as communicate with my family and friends. I shouldn't be amazed me that complete strangers in this travel community will want to read about what I am up to as they are a great bunch of folk. I have swapped my home and hospitality for many years now and always I have met such wonderful open, generous and friendly people.

Alaska would be interesting
Thanks for posting this blog entry. I'd love to visit Alaska some day. I am sure it would be interesting. Alaska is actually on almost exactly the same latitude as Sweden but much larger and much more sparsely populated. /Ake
