Temporary TCKid Home

@ Oh, yea, the world is small is a great game! My wife is absolutely spectacular playing that game. I’m not quite so good.

Well, if Virginia was at Aibonito in the 59-62 time frame I’m sure that we saw each other. (Had my wife been there, she would remember!)

My dad was an doctor at the Castaner hospital, and the projects exchanged personal at…[Read more]

@ Welcome to the site! I see you’re applying for universities in the US. If ever you have any culture shock issues or the like, I am very happy to help out. It was hard for me, and so I’m always happy to help others go through it.

@ Happy birthday, John! Thank you for your contribution to TCKID!

@ happy birthday John!

@ Hi Karen! Thank you for the warm welcome 🙂 I would absolutely love to go kayaking with you – I’ve done ‘canoe polo’ only once, but I absolutely loved it! (I really wish I wasn’t living in an industrial city right now…. ahh)
I would love make it to Denmark someday – this winter my family is going to Greece, which will be my first time…[Read more]

@ Hi, Byron–can we play the “Brethren/Mennonite/The-World-Is-Small” game? LOL! My aunt (well–technically, my step-aunt, since she was the daughter of my step-grandmother), Virginia Showalter, was a nurse in Aibonito, PR for many, many years. . .
What did your family do in Puerto Rico? My parents were of the “Catholics need to be converted” type,…[Read more]

@ Thank you so much Byron for sharing how you found out about TCK and this site. I think when we can confirm out experiences and give them a name we can have his huge empowerment.

Thank you for sharing the link with me. It looks like the family has gone through dramatic experiences as you mentioned. I thought I was watching a documentary on…[Read more]

@ Sorry, the link is http://www.jflory.org , not .net.

@ Hi Miyon! Looks like a cute Bunny!

How did I find TCKID? Well, I found an old friend from my youth named Jim Flory a while back. We were comparing notes about our lives, and he mentioned that we were both TCKs. I had never heard of the term, so he said to Google it. And I found TCKID.

You might be interested in his story – it is much more…[Read more]

@ Hi Monica, I am MIyon who grew up in Japan because my parents were doing ministry there. It looks like you live in Illinois! I am currently a student at U of I. Are you currently working?

@ hey- I went to BIS Jakarta for a couple of years- 96-98.
Great memories from that time.
Take it easy.

@ sure thing, it’s good to have a pinoy around the TCK community. You can find me at facebook, search me, “Justin Yu Villa”, we can chat over there.

@ Hi Marco 🙂 Nice to meet you. Thanks for a detailed profile text. It gives me a good impression of you 🙂 So…you’re into water-based sports…do you then by chance know canoe polo? A sport I’m addicted to! lol…

@ Congratulations with your birthday, George! …and in Danish: Tillykke med fødselsdagen, George! 🙂

I wish you a blessed day!

Hurra and greetings ~ Karen Marie

@ Haha… I’m beginning to think that I cannot give you any reference that you don’t know about already!
Anyway, I was wondering if you’d like to join that research group I’ve made. Don’t you think something good and interesting could come out of gathering researchers like that? We could start out by sharing our different lists of literature…[Read more]

@ Hello Karen Marie! It was nice hearing from you again. Looks like you had fun and you didn’t want to return to Denmark yet. I really want to visit the Faroes someday.

About me, well it’s still the same old nothing new. I’m really looking forward for our school term to end, and also the year. Early next year I’m going to Malaysia for research…[Read more]

@ Hey Marco, yeah we could chat some time.. as a matter of fact, i see you’re online now, so just message me back or whatever. I have YM and AOL. : )

@ Eun-bum, I am sorry about earlier.. that I had to leave so soon. I hope you got to talk to other TCKs.

@ Hey Byron ,
it’s great to hear from you …. how are things on your end ?

@ hey man … thanks for the add.
let’s chat some time =)
