 No. I don’t know exactly about alaska. But I have heard that place, only a name.



  Yes. I thought I would like to visit a place that is sparsely populated when I was young. I thought I was lonely when I was young. I didn’t like some places where there were many people. Often, I imagined that I myself lived a small house in wild, and I myself went to work in the early morning and went home in the twilight. I liked twilight so much that every twilight I felt some sad. I would thought there should be smoke from kitchen chimneys in every twilight.



  Also I imagined I would go any sparsely populated places. In some time the feeling was so strong.
