Me, I, am Jayden Kochon from Colville Lake, NT Canada. And I’ve been placed in Windsor, Ontario, which is the most southern city in all of Canada. So far, I enjoy this city a lot, it’s not a big city which I like about it. I do not like big, busy cities due to too many people. Windsor is a beautiful, hot, but quiet, relaxing small, big place. The sceneries around the city are beautiful. You just need to find them, and see the beauty in it to know. 

There quite a few things to do here, but I haven’t really done a lot yet. I went to Devonshire Mall, which is a good decent sized mall. There are all the stores you can think of there. So if you like to shop, there’s a lot of great things you can buy there. There is also a lot of workout gyms throughout the city. Me and my buddy signed up for one called Planet Fitness. I would highly recommend it there. There is a lot of restaurants here, and a whole bunch of different foods. I tried so much foods that we don’t get up north, and all the foods I’ve tried so far were amazing!!!! I would recommend going out to all the interesting restaurants that you’re able to while in a city. Don’t ask questions, just do it. 🙂 

I biked around the city a bit. Not all over, as I don’t know the city. But I biked to the Detroit River, I saw Detroit and it looks amazing at night. The lights of the buildings in Detroit look spectacular from Windsor at night. Not better than my home town though. 😉 It sure is hot here though. July is the hottest month of the year. I do not like the heat at all, as I come from the North pole. But other than that, I’m enjoying every moment here, exploring, learning, and trying out a different lifestyle. 

NYA placed me at a mechanics shop, which is the best job they could’ve placed me at. The place is named Demario’s Auto Shop. There we do most things people want done to their cars/trucks, for example: wraps, car and truck painting, maintenance, and customs jobs. I have not worked in any place like this, and I’m learning a lot of new things about cars, and trucks that I didn’t even think were things. My experience here so far is AWSOME!!! 

I tried goat for the first time, which was all right I guess lol. Very strange. I tried Indian food, which was very good because I love spicy foods. I also went to the gym for the first time, because we do not have a gym where I am from. But any who, it’s a great experience if you haven’t been.
