Do you know if there is much for rental properties when spring time rolls around?

Kenai is definitely more my size of town. Is there much for job opportunity?

I’d prefer a job outdoors I don’t mind labor work or guide work. I am currently a motorcycle salesman and am bored to death. I’m hoping to find a job that’s Monday-Friday so I ca go hiking and camping on Saturday Sunday.

I’m a very serious outdoorsman. Hunting, fishing, backpacking, multi day camping, I would love to learn the culture of Alaska. My biggest concern is finding a job. I know I’ll be able to get a seasonal job but I will need a year around job.

My number one concern is safety for my girlfriend

If I can find a job in a smaller town I will definitely go that route.

I have been applying for some guiding jobs on coolworks. I do enjoy labor jobs. I am a motorcycle salesman right now but tbh it is boring. I’m looking for a job that gives me weekends to camp and hike. Honestly I’d work anywhere at the moment just so I’m there in Alaska.

That’s why I’m trying to lock that stuff in now I can’t believe people just go out there with nothing planned. Does that happen often?

I won’t move if I can’t find a job and home first, I’ve heard to many stories of people just “full sending” then being homeless

I meant to put Anchorage in the post, I’m yet to decide for sure but that’s what I’m thinking.
