Discover l'Alaska
The 49th state of the USA is a vastness to explore. We can fly over its geography to begin with and discover its very particular history, between Russian colonization, gold rush and discovery of oil. Its destiny is torn between protecting the environment, threatened by global warming, and exploiting its natural resources. Visiting the area for tourists is often synonymous with discovering its wildlife, especially the bears that we come here to see fishing the salmon wriggling up the rivers. Its marine wildlife is also a magnificent sight: whales, orcas, sea lions swim in its icy waters in summer. Under its very American way of life and its very present religion, hides a population of "natives" with customs highly linked to the extreme environment of Alaska and to ancestral beliefs. A surprising land.
