Third Culture Kid (Episode 79)

In Living Color...Abroad

In this episode, you will be listening to Ina, who is living abroad in China! Ina discusses what it's like growing up as a Third Culture Kid (TCK), which has spent significant time outside of their parent's culture and lived a considerable amount of time outside the country in which they were born. Ina gives us great insight on the complexities around being a TCK, how she dealt with moving from country to country every few years as a child (she has lived in 5 different continents!), the advantages and disadvantages of the lifestyle, and why identifying "home" is difficult. Finally, she talks bout how being a TCK has shaped her into the person she is today. Hope you enjoy!
