  • This is the first of many videos documenting our move to Nome and wherever the universe takes us going forward.
    In this video I had just really made it to Alaska from Minnesota.
    Check out these places mentioned in the video:
    Bering Sea Tea & Coffee:
    / bering-tea-coffee-2686...
    Bering Sea Bar & Grill:
    / theberingsea
    Also, check out the show Bering Sea Gold if you're curious about the gold dredges and such. I will try to do some videos specifically about them in the future -- but if you'd like know about the personalities of the various crews and how the operations work, it's a fun watch.

      None -- and there are NO TREES IN NOME!!! Hahah. That show is way off in how it portrays Nome. That said, there have been a lot missing indigenous peoples over the years in the Nome area.

    The water got into the outlet boxes. The wires are probably burnt. A tell tale outward sign is the outlet cover screw will be rusty if you look close. Very dangerous, I just re flashed windows and replaced the burnt outlets.

    • @ToNomeAndBeyond
      @ToNomeAndBeyond  3 года назад +2

      Nah...the landlord was fine. He's a great guy too, it's just hard and SUPER SUPER expensive to fix stuff and unless renters let him know it's in bad condition ( previous renters didnt) he can't fix it and with renter turnover so high here it's really hard to get in to do major repairs...so he has to let it sit empty to fix it up....and even finding ppl that able to fix some of the stuff is challenging sometimes....all this I didn't really know when I made that video.

      You're right, that would have been cool, I hadn't thought about it when I made it. Originally the channel was just for our family in the midwest...until I started getting views and doing other things. Now, it'd be a very expensive trip to take a video of the outside of someone else's place, and a 4000 mile trip :). But the landlord did a BUNCH of updates on the place about a year after we moved out...many things we struggled with were fixed.

      @@Judy.LoveandLightAlways Not the creator of the video, nor do I live there, but Natives will typically get some amount of money a month from their tribal orginizations, as the isolated villages will often not have any living wage jobs avaliable (By isolation, I mean litteraly only 30-100 people living off the road system.) All races, however, get a fund of around 1000 per *year* which, as you can imagine, is not nearly enough to live off of.
