I totally love this place! It reminds me about beauty of North Ural region, where I was born. But without disruptions and damage of brutal industrialisation of this area in Stalin's time, which have been carried out with total contempt of people needs. I always dreamt my region would look alike to Alaska. I have read a lot of Jack London novels about Alaska, so I loved this region even since

There's another great writer - John Muir. He has beautiful stories from Alaska. It's easy to understand why so many writers make their way here at least once in life. Truly inspiring landscapes.

Would you be scared to ride in one of these tiny planes? :))

I don't know. Maybe yes. I'm afraid of heights. ))

I'll try, but unfortunately it seems people aren't so interested in nice travel stories anymore. LJ has turned into a soap opera platform, where only sex and scandalous materials grab attention. It's a pity, it wasn't like that when I first started writing here. But, yes, I'll continue to write a lot of travel posts. It's the main focus of my journal. :)

Often you need to choose - write about what you like or what the public likes:)

Have you traveled in one of these small planes? Are they common in remote parts of Russia? It seems like the harsh winter weather conditions would be too difficult for them to operate.

I will be on an Aeroflot plane in three weeks, on my way to Moscow. Hooray! :))
