I was in Anchorage alaska Dec 2007 on a personal 4 days retreat to get away from all the stress of school, work and everything in new york. The days I spent here really gave me the chance to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature. It also gave me the chance to think about how beautiful this planet is and everything we have to be thankful for. It was a wonderful experience that i would recommend to anyone. This christmas, it will be Barrow, Alaska! ... Read Full Review | Report This
