Hi my name is Tonya. I am from Baker Lake. I’m 16. I’m placed in Alma, New Brunswick, known for lobsters. I work at Fundy National Park.

I have gotten to try lots of new things in the south: sushi and octopus. My favourite things so far on NYA have been travelling to new places, meeting new people, going to the park, drinking blueberries smoothies, and going to the bakery for cinnamon sticky buns. I have learned that I’m not a morning person, but I am working on it. I also went horseback riding for the first time. It was fun and kinda scary!

I want to thank the NYA staff, my host family, my mom, my mentor, and my work placement for making this experience possible.

Ma’na for reading.
