Hi, my name is Henry Nakashuk.

I had a chance to go with the NYA NEXT program and it has been interesting. I got to go downtown of Ottawa, and I got to work for constructions for three weeks. I did some other cool things on my own free time like make new friends and go to Bayshore mall. I also went to the beach and tried some new food at restaurants. Many more things I just can’t explain them all!

My time with NYA NEXT program was amazing, even though I was late for one week. I got to learn so many things. For example, I got know the Algonquin College campus, the places, where I was working or volunteering, about the city of Ottawa and the people you are going to meet. They are amazing people when you get to know them and they can help you with anything. You just need that right person, and you might get new friends along the way or have new experiences that you never thought you can have. But don’t forget this is for training, so if you ever want to learn, you will love the NYA Next Program. Don’t be scared of the challenges, you’ll always have challenges no matter what, so might as will add more that interest you.

Thanks for reading!
