I've never been to Alaska so I wouldn't really know. But I've always wanted to try to go there during the time of year when the sun doesn't set. I saw it in a movie (The Proposal).
It seems like it would be amazing.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
