About Me

> I am an Inuk, I live in Arviat, Nunavut, Canada. Population here is around 2060. Summer is finally here, love the fish and boating. Spending lots of time at my little cabin, lots of sun and good weather. I do not see myself living anywhere else. There is a demonstration of throat singing on this page, and also a family picnic photos.There is an old story I keep thinking about, it's about Kiviuq, that his mother would be waiting for her son to come back home, she would wait for him on the shore, standing on a boulder. She waited everyday, for so many days that her feet made imprints onto that boulder. He never came back home. That same boulder is located just down the shoreline near my house. About 10 years ago, one would be able to set her feet into these impressions in the rock. I never went to go see those impressions yet, I wonder if they are still there.
