Bob and Florine moved to Alaska in 1984, starting out in an old log cabin in Sourdough with no modern conveniences. Florine recorded their early adventures by writing a weekly series in a local newspaper as a way to share in their adventures with family and friends back home. This eventually led to a televised series named “Alaska Adventures” and “On the Road again with the Hirsch’s” on a local cable channel. 　

Alaska is truly a destination to place priority on your bucket-list !
Many think they will only travel there once. Most often, this is not true. Many of my clients have gone 2-3-and even 4 times. I just went my 12^th time in May 2012.

PS.  Maybe next year, I’ll personally see you there !
