made it to state #35 ALASKA!!
we’re the fore one thing: to see the northern lights 🌌
2025 is on of the best years in a decade to see the aurora & Fairbanks, AK is one of the best places in the world to see them
so after spending the past 4 nights chasing the aurora…here’s what no one tells you:
🎣it’s like fishing — meaning LOTS of waiting & watching
😴 it’s team no sleep — the aurora are most active between 10pm-2am and repeated 3am bedtimes will leave you very tired! We learned very quickly that it’s a stay up all night, sleep all day situation so not much time is left for daytime travel adventures/activities
📱they look best on the phone — the northern lights are beautiful IRL but phones & camera capture colors we can’t see with our naked eye so the pics usually look more vibrant than in person

The Alaska Marine Highway is the main way to get around in southeast Alaska. It connects all the major islands, so you and your vehicle can travel from place to place.
It’s a really affordable way for people to get around. And the views from the deck are unmatched 😍
They also offer rooms for overnight travel. And they even let people put up tents on the deck for an even more affordable option!
For reference, it takes about 67 hours to get from the southern most point (Bellingham) to the northern most point (Skagway) on the highway. There are also ferries that travel along the gulf, that will take you to places like Kodiak island!
The down side: it only goes to each island once or twice a week. So planning or “ferry hopping” can be difficult sometimes.
It’s also not the quickest form of transportation. If you need to get somewhere fast, getting on a seaplane is your best bet!

This is the beauty of Alaska

Headshot of a great looking eagle in Alaska. One of the reasons why I love this tour so much is the fact that you not only get great environmental and flight shots, but also get to spend a good amount of time up close with eagles to create portraits like this. Only 2 spots remain for next years 2026 tour! link in bio. #alaska #eagle #baldeagle #baldeaglesofinstagram #wildlifephotography

It’s true, there’s no better way to see Alaska than from above! 🚁
This summer, join us in the stunning coastal community of Seward for a flightseeing tour above the epic landscapes and glaciers of Kenai Fjords National Park.
