  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  At home, we speak French, but we all know English, a bit german and a few words and songs in Inuktitut. We live in a multicultural city (with 4 official languages in Nunavut : Inuktitut, English, French and Inuinaqun), with a some of traditional Inuit activities organized by local associations. For exemple, every April is a igloo building contest and dogsleed races during the Toonik Time Festival. Reading on the Nunavut and its people will be a open mind and polite thing to do before visiting this land.

All meals are included for during your stay, and we asked our kids to eat all their plate, so we expect the workaway to show good example by not being picky eater.
