SENORA - MANITOBA, CANADA

My name is Senora and I belong to the Inuit people. My brother Gabriel and I live just northwest of Hudson Bay in the province of Manitoba, Canada, near the Arctic. I have pet Siberian huskies, who help me move the sleds and hunt seals. We depend upon the waters for much of our survival and travel only when the seasons change or we need food. Although life is good and simple here, there is much more to the world I would like to see. I can provide skilled hand work and respect the land in a way that others do not. I can show you new ways of using animal skins for positive uses and different forms of transportation. I want to be an architect, so that I can help my people build homes and buildings for our community. I could help a new civilization survive the coldest temperatures and show you how to build different types of homes, such as igloos in the ice and wood houses held down at the base of rocks. I would like to go with you, if the Earth becomes uninhabitable.
