I've lived and worked in the Alaskan Bush for two years, and it's been one of the most incredible experiences of my life.
The Alaskan Bush refers to the parts of Alaska that aren't accessible by the road system. My village is approximately three hours from Anchorage by plane and has about 89 residents.Living here is quite expensive, but my district pays more than districts on the road system and also helps with airfare to Anchorage and back. Overall, I make about $10,000 to $15,000 more than I would if I taught in the Lower 48.
It's important for me to get outside after school, so I often head right home and go for a run or a hike.Two of my favorite places to go to are our tsunami shelter or the beach. The tsunami shelter is two miles from the ocean and is where we congregate when there's a tsunami warning .I also usually take a few photos from the tsunami shelter, as the view never gets old. It's possible to see the whole eleven miles of our village from up there.
