Temporary TCKid Home

@ Hi Yu, thanks for the welcome. Yeah it’s definitely kind of eye-opening to meet so many TCKs. It’s also strange because we’ve all had very different experiences. What are you doing down in Portland?

@ Hey Paul! Welcome! I’m new to the community too! I just went to Boston 2 weeks ago! It’s a beautiful place. Portland, where I live, has a lot of similarities… I wish we could’ve hang out while I was there! My dream from now on is to travel and meet up with TCKs there 😉 I also went to Germany a few month ago. Have you been to Stuttgart?? 🙂

@ Welcome to the community, Charles! I’m new to this community and I love reading everyone’s profile! It’s just amazing that there are so many TCKs and each of us is very very unique… It would be great to get to know you more!

@ Hey Ruth! It’s great to meet German TCKs,because I just went to Germany a few month ago. I met many Germans here in Portland and we became really good friends. Right after they went back I visited them! They are from Stuttgart 😉 I loved the city, but I wanted to travel to north too. Have you lived in Stuttgart??

@ hey Rachel, I love your pics too 😉 Where in Seattle do you love? in downtown?? I might go up there next week or so! If that happens, we should meet up! I’m just trying to visit TCKs close to me! hopefully I can visit everyone in community. I have this travel bug… 🙂 What’s the life in Nigeria like for you??

@ Glad you could make it. Here’s my other friend Paul Trigg http://my.tckid.com/profile/PaulTrigg

@ Welcome Lizanne, we actually do have a group for parents – it was named itchy feet parenting but now renamed to avoid confusion and you can find it here

@ Hi Paul,
How’s Zambia? I’ve always wanted to go somewhere in Africa, but still can’t make up my mind. I have many friends from Libya…but I kinda want to South Africa, or Kenya…hm… I should go both…

@ Hi Simon,
I really love talking about TCK issues because I care about the belonging challenge, repatriation, defining identity, keeping in touch with family, cultural marginality, and so forth that many of us go through. Thank you for finding me. I am happy to talk about any topics.. hehe..

@ Wow, Yu. Me, too. I wish I had known you earlier so that we could meet here in Hawaii. I was schooling in Tokyo when young and I was expatraited to Fukuoka when grown up. I loved Fukuoka because it’s not too big not too small. The nature is lovely and people are so friendly. I didn’t know that your parents were here in Hawaii. If you have a plan…[Read more]

@ hi Eun Bum! I’m from Osaka! Yea, I’ve been to Tokyo before, but it’s tooo big for me. I don’t like big cities like LA, NY, etc… 🙁 but I don’t like too small either… Portland, in that sense, is a great city because of the size and friendly people. You know what? I actually went to hawaii 3 weeks ago to meet up with my parents! I wish I’d…[Read more]

@ Are you the Louwella from skype?

@ Hii Yu,
I agree with you that English gives people voices to unite.. It’s so wonderful we can help them achieve that.. I enjoy the diversity of people like you do too! Isn’t it a wonderful feeling you can connect with people from all kinds of backgrounds with this one language?

It’s so cool you’ve been in the States since 2001!! Since what…[Read more]

@ Hi, Paul. There you got beautiful photos!. Nice to get to know you!

@ If you have any questions regarding the International management program at the UHM, you can ask me.

@ Thank you, Brice. I am going to share my writing when it’s ready for revealing it to the world. At first, I would like to get a proofreading.

@ Hi, Yu. Nice to see you. Where is your home in Japan? I have lived in Tokyo and Fukuoka. Actually, I did not like Tokyo that much, but I loved Fukuoka. The city is beautiful with tradition, culture, and everything. I really miss Fukuoka. I travelled all around Japan.

@ Hi Miyon 🙂 I personally love teaching English to people from different countries. These days, English has becoming a global language (that’s what we call it in the linguistics field…) and you have so many advantages if you speak it. I want to empower people by teaching it. I also believe that English is the language that connects us all……[Read more]

@ Hi Yu,
Thanks for sending me the friend request. I just joined too but I’m a little slower at making friends! 🙂 I like your photos.
