Temporary TCKid Home

@ Hey Miyon,

Well, I have to say that the background of TCKs and CCKs are pretty different, but the final feeling experience is very similar. At least, it is what I’ve been able to conclude after having read lot about TCK… Although I’m not a “typical” TCK, I can share 90% if no more of TCKs’ strengh and weekness, and I guess that is why I can…[Read more]

@ Hi Elizabeth,

I’m actually the TCK (growing up in rural French villages from age 3 to 6). My youngest son (age 26–temporarily living in Bath) has lived for short periods in Japan and China and has been encouraged to think like a TCK (as a psychologist, I was familiar with TCKness before he was born), but he did not live with me outside the…[Read more]

@ Hi Miyon! Thank you so very much. I didn’t think to really look around. I added the link on facebook which helped. Hope you enjoy the holidays!!

@ Hi Miyon, thanks for stoppping by XD i see that you have so many interesting photos, especially yhose taken in korea(or japan , im not sure), if i am not mistaken
cheers!

@ Hi Victoria,
I commented on the Christian TCK group about finding other TCKs in Australia.. and I wanted to write in addition to that 🙂

Brice created this Facebook Group for TCKs in Australia a while ago and I thought it would be nice to check it out! But it might be easier to connect with other 40+ TCKs right on this site because you can…[Read more]

@ I do agree Rahul. There’s so much beauty to meeting different people and learning about a culture other than your own. It adds so much to the way we experience humanity, how we relate to another human being.. how we influence and are also influenced by them 🙂 And I find that so beautiful.

Aw.. your son is embracing the Korean culture? I think…[Read more]

@ Thanks Enshu! for the add~
With the economy, I think so many of the recent college grads are going through job hunting without much luck! but yess, let’s keep things positive, Enshu!! We will find a job hahaha

@ Hi Ashley,
I do agree with you that whereever we go, we see “humanity” in other people.. that we are all human after all– raise family, seek securities, etc. and we are somehow interconnected ^_^

To answer your question, I’ve been living in Illinois for the past 9 years and I lived in Chicago area specifically for high school (for 4 years),…[Read more]

@ Hi Joshua! It’s pretty cool you worked as an English teacher for 6 years! Yes, it would be pretty fun to talk about your experience!

P.S. I saw your tagline and I did hear my Asian American friends talk about bananas, twinkies, etc to refer themselves or others, but oh well.. for some time I was a F.O.B. hehe

@ Hi Remy,
Thank you for the comment!
Aw.. so you consider yourself more of a CCK than a TCK?
I feel bad that I tend to make this distinction… We are after all all human being and using terms may cause more divide but union >_<

You are definitely correctly in that my parents are from Korea! because they are Kim’s. And yes, Lee, Choi, Park, and…[Read more]

@ Welcome to My.TCKID Robert!
There are TCKs here ranging from teenagers to 60’s +
I hope you find what you are looking for 🙂

@ Hi Georgia! Welcome to TCKID
I too felt like I couldn’t fit in one culture or the other, or any of the cultures I was exposed to/grew up in, but I am so incredibly thankful that I met many TCKs on this site that understand me and I also found a sense of belonging with fellow TCKs because of our shared experience of living the mobile lifestlye…[Read more]

@ Hi Peter!
It’s very cool you get to travel as a pilot! As TCKs I know many of us feel like there is so much more to see in this world. And a new experience else where is an advanture 🙂

@ Hi Vivi, welcome to my.TCKID!
I hope you find meaningful friendships you are looking for here ^_^

@ Welcome on TCKid, Joshua.
I’d like to tell you that I really like your current status line 🙂

@ I have been looking for TCKs in Maine and am glad I found someone! You say you have children who are TCKs? What are there ages? (If you don’t mind my asking) It would be great to meet your children if they are my age, to have a TCK as close as Bath!

Elizabeth

@ So you are a TCKA? It dose not show how old you are so i do not know but it says you are teacher aka you have a job so I am just making an assumption. Do you have children? If you do, are they TCKs?

Please reply,
Elzabeth

@ I haven’t lived in America in a long time, but the thing that always sticks out is that America is the land of variety, of choice. Even when you go into a Wal-Mart, or a bookstore, it’s just amazing how many selections you have. But American life is like that too, on a daily basis you have every color of the rainbow walking down the street.…[Read more]

@ yes, its just like the color, rhymes with seal 🙂 My sister is two years older and she is my best friend! we miss each other if we don’t see one another for more than a few hours 🙁 haha she actually just walked in to borrow chapstick. but i miss dubai quite a bit, kuwait is pretty strict and there isn’t as many things to do, like you have to be…[Read more]

@ Heys,
I lived in LiJiang for a bit, but not long..
How’d you find living in America.?? I have always really wanted to go there, but haven’t got the chance yet..
