Hi, this is Kabiri again, and today I'm going to show you my small kitchen garden which I've tried— I'm trying to grow on my balcony. So it's a very tiny one, so please don't mind, but I'll just show you how it's grown. I bought the plants which were very small, they were like this high, and now they've grown up this much. So this is the Well, hot peppers. Sorry about the sunlight. This is hot peppers, okay? And these are parsleys. This is lalchak, which I got from the garden area. This is marigold flowers, which are abound in Canada. Basically, they are everywhere in Canada in the streets. This is my tomato plant which has grown about 8 to 10 inches tall now. I bought them about 2 inches in height. And this is green chilies. Again, these are green hot peppers. They call them hot pepper cayenne. This is cayenne. Okay, I think my soil is a little dry today. Can you show us the tomato plant? I have to pour a lot of water today evening. This is hot peppers, and these are thyme again. So these are thyme plants. This is beetroot plant, which my son has planted. These are parsley, and this I'm sure you will recognize. You know what are these? Can you guess what are these? These are not from Canada. They are from Calcutta. In fact, from a village away from Calcutta. They are called Hogla plants, and they are grown in the marsh swamp areas. They have been with me for 12 years now, and they are still with me. I have about 5 of them, and I have placed them here to decorate the garden. And here you see pansy, lots of pansy flowers, lots of colors that we find in Canada. This kind of flowers we have, okay. And this is green chilies, this is parsley, and yeah, that's about it. And these are my small— these are my Somali couple who are guarding my garden. Yeah, I keep them outside during the summer and inside they go in, I mean, in winter they go inside. So they cannot stand the— obviously stand the cold, bitter cold of winters. But now it's beautiful summer and I still have a lot of plants to plant. Like, I need to plant some coriander and some leafy vegetables. Let me just work it out.

Can you see Lake Ontario? I can see Lake Ontario from here, and during high tide it really goes high, and you can see the water, blue waters over here. And you can see the— I can see the highway from here and the lake. So it's a beautiful view from here, and I never feel lonely seeing so many cars just running around. So such a busy world around me, so I don't feel lonely at all here. Though this place is very, very empty and lonely. There's a mosque over here, okay? That's the mosque. If you can see the mosque, that's a small mosque. Those are 2 hotels, and thus that is some kind of an office. Is this— this is my doctor's chamber, just behind that plaza. And okay, that's the thing. And this is my garden, which is, yeah, pretty long one. And this is one of the largest, biggest balcony in those— in this building. Luckily, I just had it. I didn't even ask for it. So it's my first house I moved in when I moved from Canada, and I haven't left it. This is the spare table which I think I'll put it to some use. And we have to use ACs, you know. You can see the ACs dumped over there. We'll be using those ACs very soon because it's going to get very hot.
