  • 24: Glacier Bay National Park in Alaska (part 2 of 2)
    I visited my first national park in Alaska: Glacier Bay National Park! It was only a couple days but it was so healing for the soul. In this episode, I talk about:
    Why getting to many of Alaska's national parks is hard
    Tlingit, the Indigenous people of the Glacier Bay / Juneau region
    A very immigrant attitude on travels (that I am not ashamed of, for the record)
    Getting my first Junior Badge at a national park
    Another way to explore Glacier Bay National Park: sea kayaking!
