Here is a map of where I am from. As you can see, Yakutat is a small village on the coast of southeast Alaska. There we are surrounded by forests, mountains, and the ocean. Because of this isolation, we are very centered around our Tlingit culture and respect for nature and eachother. Here is where our language is spoken with pride and learned by the next generation. There are also many different art forms used here such as, carving, weaving, and traditional painting. I am proud to say that I come from such a culture based place.
