Being raised in Holy Cross, AK has given me a beautiful playground and outlook on life. It is incredibly beautiful there and the rock formations that I admired my whole life have inspired me to pursue a bachelor's degree in geology. My dad has his own dog team and we went dog sledding often when I was younger. Holy Cross is a great place to visit but if I were to live there again and raise my family, I would have a cabin on the outskirts of town. Like any small town, people know your business and some are often cruel so it would be ideal to not constantly be around them.
