I lived here... — 12 months ago
twice, briefly.
The first time, I moved there with my boyfriend who had family there. I arranged flowers by day and did theater at the Perserverance at night, in Douglas.
The second time, I stowed away on a ferry with about $40 in my pocket, and ended up spending the summer, working at the Heritage coffee shop.
Juneau is a special place. The people are unaffected by a lot of the culture of the lower 48; very authentic, very thoughful and real. It is among the most beautiful places I have ever been in my life, if not in the number 1 spot. Juneau is a truly magical place. I hope I make it back some day.
