10 reasons why you’ll love tckid and want to join us
1) We love you.
The best thing I noticed about this community is how much people actually care for each other. We know what it’s like to be different… and we’re generally open-minded. If you’ve been in the forum long enough, then you know what I’m talking about.
2) We’re very active and we can help you.
Did you know there’s an average of 6 new posts and 43 new comments per day since we launched? Yup, we talk a lot! This is one of the fastest growing and most active community of TCKs and CCKs. Do you have a question? Make a post and harness other people’s input. Maybe you want to meet other people in your city, post a survey for TCK research or have questions about friendships, traveling, family or career. Many have asked questions and got the answers they needed.
3) You’ll discover new things.
You don’t need to be a TCK to be here. Do you know what the world’s weirdest hotels are? Did you know “garbage” is a popular baby name in Botswana? Or that people eat goat dung in Laos? Stick around and you’ll have endless conversational fodder for your friends. With over a thousand amazing stories, videos, pictures, poems and interesting discussions, you’ll never be bored.
4) We’ll scratch your itch.
Many of us are living lives surprisingly similar to yours and even have the same problems. Start connecting with a member from your city or half-way around the world.
5) You’ll improve your skills.
Who needs a degree anyway? OK, maybe you do. But you’ve got the world’s wisdom at your fingertips from kids and adults who grew up all over the world. You can practice a language you’ve forgotten, improve your cross cultural skills, and talk to a diverse group of people.
6) You can self-promote. (with some limitations of course.)
OK, so maybe you’re awesome and you need to let everyone know. If you have pictures, videos, poems, a blog or ideas you’d like to share, make a post and share your awesomeness with us.
7) We have an addicting chatroom.
If you want to chat in real-time with others, you can drop by the live chatroom anytime… but I must warn you. It’s very addicting.
8 ) We need you.
Maybe you’re a genius with great ideas or maybe you’ve discovered something and want to tell others, or you simply want to make someone’s day a little better including your own. Then you can help others.
9) Ruth Van Reken is here
Ruth Van Reken, is an advisor of TCKID, and she cares about all you. Come and listen to some of her insights right here on TCKID.
10) You won’t be the only addict.

Bonus: 11) We’ll give you a special welcome.
We have a tradition to welcome new members with a picture, preferably with lolcats or Engrish. Ok, that reason is more for Brice than for you because he loves cat pictures…
Don’t join TCKID.com, it’s a bit addictive. You’ve been warned. It’s your choice!
