Temporary TCKid Home

@ Hi Martin, I haven’t heard of many Global Nomads from PNG.  Were you born there? -Ann

@ Hi Yan,
You are one of only a few in this group of TCKs who is almost a neighbor.  Are you still travelling?  I have had to stop because my feet got too sore and my baggage too heavy, but with this website I still can still soar virtually. 
Welcome,
Ann 

@ Thanks for your reaction, but I don’t think my story is too extreme for this group of TCKs.  My early life, which I count as part of the TCK experience, just takes a bit more explanation for some.  I think it’s like, maybe for you if you had been born in pre-revolutionary Algerie and went to a Basque area of France you would have been se…[Read more]

@ You are my first ever social networking “friend”.  I have no clue how to communicate with anyone this way.  I am not on Facebook or You Tube or any other networking site, not because I don’t like them, but just because I haven’t yet learned the computer skills.  I used a computer at work as a research scientist since the days of IBM punch…[Read more]

@ Hello and welcome to TCKid.  I’m new too and don’t yet know how to use this site very well but am also looking for friends, dates, networking and groups.  I don’t know if I need to “send” this or how to tell you how to reply.  I have a profile page.  Maybe see you around.   -Ann Kyllingstad

@ Haha, it’s a pretty amazing place, no doubt! Like you said, I like how polite everyone is, and I like their strong work ethic too. And they treat foreigners very kindly, unlike some other places (including my country of Finland) 😛 Yes, I’m going to college next September, but I’m still in high school at the moment. I’m 17. How about you?
Nice,…[Read more]

@ Hello! It’s nice to meet you! 🙂
It’s my dream to teach English in Japan because I guess I’ve just fallen in love with the country, its culture, and its people. I wasn’t even there for very long but I know I want to live there someday. And I might get to study in Kansai in two years’ time!
You go there every year? That’s great! What area do you…[Read more]

@ Hey Arif! Nice to meet ya. I know, I’m surprised as well. I have met some third culture kids here in Monterrey, but they headed back to the United States like 9 months ago.I’ve never been to Guadalajara, but I’ve been told that it’s pretty nice over there. Happy holidays to you too! =)

@ Hey Zoe,
Do you plan on returning to Bali when you’re older? I know what you mean with the reverse culture shock, I had the same when I moved to Toronto from Moscow. You’re lucky you feel at home in Bali, I’m still searching….
