  1. Born and raised. I say if you've been through a few winters. You can consider yourself more Alaskan the longer you are here. You may not be from here but the longer you are here, the more likely, an alaskan will call you a fellow alaskan. I do enjoy hearing people who lived here for any amount of time to see how they felt about Alaska.

    To be honest, I don't know how I do it.. Born in Homer but raised in Fairbanks. Used to say I was born in the wrong place until I was 19…Then I just would grit my teeth and get through it. Most of us dread the cold starting in August and September but there is more fun with Snowmachines and other adventures in the winter. We have a saying, "You can always dress warmer."

    Each year, summer and winters can be different than the last. Some more survivable than others. It's definitely warmer winters than when I was a child. We had -60° and-50° winters for 2 and 3 weeks straight.

    We would go to school at -20° but we couldn't go to recess. We would just get heavy snow days. So when the snow would just dump on us, we would stay home and play outside if you wanted to make snowmen and snow forts.
