How old are you guys? Are most of you still actual TCKs, or are you retired TCKs trying to find your way in the world? Also, where did you grow up?
I've been looking through all these posts, and it seems like most of the people on this subreddit are adults. So I was just curious... I'm still a teenager overseas, so if there's other teenagers, I'd love to get to know you! And if not... adults are pretty awesome. One of the things about being a TCK is you learn to be friends with all ages, and I'd love to hear from all of you! Also, just out of curiousity, I wanted to see 1. What is technically your home country? 2. Where do you consider yourself from? 3. What countries have you lived in? 4. Where do you tell people you are from?
realized I forgot to tell you about myself! I'm an American, but I moved to Egypt when I was a preteen and have been here ever since, but I'm finishing up my high school years in Germany because the school is better (and cheaper!). When I'm in America I usually say I'm from America, but most people hear that I'm from Egypt ahead of time, so I have to explain stuff a lot. My brother likes to brag, so he always says Egypt, which leads to awkward questions when we each answer differently...
