On April 16, I see an ad for property for a reasonable price in an area I know from my ski tours. I drive there immediately, but the road is not drivable all the way. My high rubber boots fill with snow when I walk down an unused road, but there are power lines I find a poster of Meyeres real estate agency in a corner with birch forest on a Northwest slope. Far away, I can see low mountaintops. The fastest way to contact the real estate agency is to drive there. I throw a $100 bill on the table. I am interested in the property. Here is my down payment. When Kristina Ahln s moves from Finland to Alaska to start a new life as an American oceanographer her life is clearly more than normal. In this quirky memoir Kristina recalls unique experiences in her job, to seeing UFOs in the Alaskan sky, and even building her own log cabin. This easy-to-read, spunky book allows readers to slip into a world where its so cold cars dont start, finding some place warm to stay is near impossible, and friends will do anything to help each other. Travel with Kristina from Finland to Alaska where she starts off paying a rent of $220 a month, to sleeping in a tent as she builds her 8 by 8 foot practice cabin with a 16-foot ladder (the cache), the log cabin, and life, she could only dream ofin Kristinas Cache.
