Arctic Entries

Stephanie hails from the tropical suburbs of Florida. She came to Alaska for the first time in 2011 to lead land tours for a cruise line. The following year, she surprised her family and friends by claiming, “I was born for the tundra,” throwing caution to the wind, and driving the 6,500 miles up in her tender little Diesel Bug. Today she is no longer a guide, but still loves to tell stories about Alaska to anyone who will listen—especially the tourists who annually migrate here.
