Hope you enjoyed the video. I’m not a documentarian. I just filmed a small town through my eyes. A lot of people have visited this town and since I’m in Alaska, I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to visit this town as well. Thanks for your continued support. It means the world to me.

I like that you are so respectful of others when you travel.

My father helped build the building in Whittier, thank you for helping me visit.

I love your life ❤️ I'm 62 and I wish I could do it but I'm taking care of my mom she's 83 with dementia 😢. I'll keep watching your great videos ❤️

I can’t help but notice how relaxed you are compared to the small town in Idaho. Alaskans are super friendly, and we help each other out.

That drive was GORGEOUS. God is an amazing, master artist!!! 😍

I love how you share without compromising other people’s privacy ❤

You don't know how happy I was to come across your Channel😊 it is so good to see a black woman exploring out and about. I look forward to watching many more videos and by the way you are excellent at providing commentary🎉

OMG, that opening scene and explanation in your narrative voice…. Is everything! These vids just keep elevating! Well done, and thank you for bringing this to us again! Loving these episodes! This was such an interesting and informative video.

A rare quality to be a considerate vlogger. Easy decision to follow.

Thank you so much for giving us this experience. I never knew this place ever existed. You have no idea how much you helped me see the world because I don't have the money to travel , you are my eyes and ears through the world I am 24 years old and I'm all the way in Chicago. Wishing you best of luck and to be safe please ♥️🥺

As a Marine a defensive instructor I have to give you props for being as brave as you are. I have Subaru Outback back and haven’t had the guts to do this yet.

The Whittier tunnel was built by the military and finished in the 1940s. During the Cold War, it was meant to be a base of operations in the event of a nuclear attack. The military had special high tech training cars built just for that purpose. I remember, in the early 90s, I read an article about the military trying to sell the train cars because nuclear treat was diminished. Another fun fact, Portage was an actual town on the highway side of the mountains. It was destroyed in the earthquake of 1964.

Thank you for taking us along on that journey. Thank you for being so considerate of others im sure that was appreciated. Be safe .

I just saw a video about them. That is so amazing. I’m praying for your protection as you travel alone.

Your genuine enthusiasm and zest for life is what makes your documentation captivating.

As a black man i did not know there was black people in Alaska doing outdoor shyt in the cold lol. Do yo thang my sista. Good video

Brings back memories of my time stationed in Alaska when I served in the Army ❤ I am now 70 so it was a long time ago 😂 Thank you for sharing your travels makes me smile a lot ❤

Welcome to Alaska! I am long time resident of Anchorage and Palmer and have a Newmar Baystar and have been camping and RVing since the 70’s. Your introduction to Whittier is very suited for this amazing town.

Whittier A hub / jumping off point during the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill 1989 response. Begich is pronounced "bay gitch". Reindeer are domestic caribou. Antlers have velvet on them, male and female have antlers.

I saw this town featured in a news documentary a few years ago. They actually were able to speak to residents in their homes.

I appreciate your attention to their personal space. It's their home. It was very kind of you😊.

Phenomenal video, felt like I was there with you. People can we promote this channel and get her to 1 million subscribers, I personally think its one of the best travel channels on KZfaq

Bro I saw a documentary about that town! A old couple are like the superintendents, they own their apartment in there. The WHOLE TOWN is in one building. This was amazing!! I wrote this before watching it. I'm hype.

I have been watching since your first video! What an interesting town! I love when you said “Fudge will take you out.” Laughed so hard. Thank you for making these beautiful and peaceful videos!

Worked and lived there for a summer deckhanding on a charter boat. Ill tell u now, its beautiful. U missed a lot of amazing spots. By the tunnel on whittier side is a road that leads to a trail up a mountain. As well as old bomb shelters. If theres hikers out there, goto whittiers horsetail falls trail or portage pass. Its mind blowing.

Your personality so calm and relaxing

Anybody notice Nomi didn’t offer us that first bite?!?😂😂🤣😂 halibut was tooo delish to get it… dig’n this Alaskan adventure…. Animals… weather… enjoy’n every day & mile you share w/us Nomi😍🤗 thank you 🙏🏿🙏🏿 stay safe … we’re all praying for you

I love your videos. You always go in depth with your environment. You're also a great editor. Safe and happy travels, my friend 🧡

I have been to Whittier about four times. It is a very unique town. I have also been to the same fudge place and restaurant. Good stuff. If you are still in Alaska in August, go to the state fair, you won’t regret it.

That view is Heaven on Earth

You have never smiled as much as you smiled in this video. Seems like you truly enjoyed your exploration. Thanks for sharing.

Girl,you forgot to give us the first bite of that delicious seafood you had,oh,boy😂😂😂

My sister and her wife are also running around vanlifing in Alaska right now. Seems fabulous.

Anticipation of your adventures has become a regular experience. Thanks again. Have a wonderful day.

Peter Santanello did an in depth tour of the building and interview of the residents several years ago

I was in anchorage 2 weeks ago and I could not believe my eyes driving on that highway. Alaska is so beautiful. I tried to go to whitter but I got nervous about the tunnel lol.

Thank you for taking us to places we would never see keep living your dreams ❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you for sharing places that I may never go. I am enjoying the ride along.😊

My husband JUST asked about you…then BOOM-notification!❤❤❤❤❤

Nomi , I'm so glad you're exploring this. I heard about this town years ago where everyone lives and thrives under one roof. Thank you for sharing. So excited!! 🧡🌺

Up having coffee and watching Nomi, what a great start to my day. Thanks for sharing❤

You made the Daily Mail Woohoo!!! Loved reading the article!!! Thank you for showing us a very special place!

Thank you for showing us the building I have seen this building on line today just looking,so thank you so much for this opportunity I feel like I’m there with you Thanks again ❤😊

Just in a nick of time! Thank you, you make my heart smile! 🥰🥰

Thanks!❤❤❤buy yourself a coffee. Safe travels.

Alaska is such an amazing state. Whittier is a hidden gem and that tunnel is kind of creepy! Safe travels Nomi❤

I so appreciate your thoughtfulness, respect and consideration of others this is indeed rare for someone so young. That being said so far you have won me over and I have just subscribed. 🙂😊

Your description of fudge was incredibly hilarious 😂 Thank you for sharing your adventures with us! Stay safe & keep enjoying your time in Alaska 🥾⛰️

Thank God there's light at the end of the tunnel! I so enjoyed this adventure, love tiny town, but Whittier Alaska is like no other. The shrimp may have been just as delish however your crunchy meal sounded scrumptious. YUM! ENJOY YOUR STAY IN ALASKA!❤️

“I just didn’t want to invade their privacy.” You are so kind and considerate! Love your voice!

That deer was in what they call velvet. They shed their antlers every year. Thats how the new ones come in and the deer rub them on trees or whatever to get the velvet off.❤

Really admire your confidence and zeal for life. Stay safe and be blessed 😊

You're Alaska.Trip is one of the most unique trips I have ever see.Thank you for all that you do across the USA and other countries.🙌🏽🙌🏽👏🏽🙏🏽❤️

I saw a video a few years ago about this town, building in Whittier. Thanks for sharing your adventures❣️

I surprised my husband for his birthday in 2019 with a trip to Whittier. We did the glacier boat tour. I saw Grizzlies and Huge Otters and drank a glacier margarita made from glacier ice. It was rainy and cold even in August but we loved it. It was the FINAL of the United States states that I hadn’t been to. I like what you explored there. We went to some of the same places you did, but never did get to see inside Begich Towers. Thanks for sharing that with us.

Hello Nomi I hope your are having fun, beautiful country, very relaxing

Cool video! The tunnel shared with train tracks would be the craziest for me😂

Thanks for taking me along I really enjoyed the trip❤❤❤❤

Like always this was a video where I felt I was there myself. It was awesome experience and can't thank you enough.

You got me wanting to visit Alaska now. Subbed!!!

Very cool ! But we have these all over now we call them senior living! They now have movie theatres, salons, barbers, grocery stores ect …

Thanks so much for sharing your adventures❤️ I especially like that you are really having fun and enjoying what you are doing, that makes it fun for me❤

I really enjoyed this video…I like them all, but something about this one! I love how you are so respectful of others while filming🤗 continued blessings from God🙏

Am enjoying living vicariously through you. Esp. envious of the Halibut feast. Haha Have more fun. Stay safe & ENJOY 🎉

I took the Alaska Marine (Highway) ferry from Bellingham WA to Juneau then got onto another ferry from Juneau to Whittier. I got off the ferry with my truck then drove home to Anchorage. It was an awesome experience!

Hey Nomi girl ! You’re always so considerate and sweet. Another amazing video 🤎 praying for your continued safe travels

So beautiful! I've always wondered about that little town and housing building. Thank you for taking us on your adventure. Now, I feel like I've been there. We love you Nomi! Stay safe! ❤🫂🫶🏾

Happy Saturday Nomi

Thank you for sharing the joy that shines on your face as you explore the wonders of Alaska! So much fun to share that joy!

You are so adventurous! The town reminds me of an old mining town.

Thanks again for sharing. I have seen others travel to this city, however you were the first one have seen go inside. I commend your bravery and commitment to sharing your experiences. You are getting better with your commentaries as time goes on and that’s a joy to see. You can tell by the comments that we are creatures of habit and do like the option to take the first bite or not. Safe travels and carry on.

16:17 love seeing you happy!!!

Wow, interesting place. Rain is so comforting... and annoying at the same time.

I always learn from you. I never heard of that isolated town. 😊

What a relaxing, informative and pleasurable to follow. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful trip. Always a pleasure! 😊

Driving and walking through the tunnels was exciting.

You're beyond amazing, you should be on TV you have the ability for it! Thank you so much for sharing ❤

Lol at "Take you out and choke you up a bit"😂😂😂 I def agree about the fudge!

Very interesting, I like the history of the building and the town. The driving tunnel and walking tunnel were cool and scary at the same time. I really enjoyed this video. Thank you for the history and the tour.

I think you just got some of the best fish being in Alaska. Wow!? Looks very deliciously good. You’re so fortunate to be able to go.

Your personality and overall demeanor is just lovely

Hi Nomi!!! Have fun for us!!!! I have a friend currently working in Alaska and I’ve asked him to bring me a rock back😂😂😂 Be safe and enjoy your trip!!!

1:45 I’ve seen a video on this place before but I am interested in seeing your take on it.

I lived in Alaska as a kid and this is just so comforting and beautiful. You make me want to go back

The algorithm has finally blessed me 🎉❤ thanks for sharing 🙏🏽 great channel. Original to the bone 💯

Hey Nomi, I've watched a video about this town, it's so fascinating. Alastair is a beautiful place.

Seen several documentaries about this town on KZfaq and even one guy who was allowed to tour the entire building.

Oh man I saw this place years ago, there was a special on tv about it. They actually interviewed some of the people and showed the apartments and everything you showed in the video. I forgot this place. Thank you for sharing with us and as always safe travels

Whittier is so interesting! I guess that is a place where all the residents woukd have to semi get along. Thank you for being so respectful of others!

This town is definitely on my bucket list! I have watched so many videos of this town glad to explore it through your eyes 💙
