I’m New
This post has 340 views
Ok, so my name is Patricia and like most people here I’m a TCK. I was born in the US but when I turned a year old my family moved to Japan. I’ve been there for practically my whole childhood. I’m also a Navy brat by the way and I must say it was the best childhood I’ve had the luck to experience. I’ve taken time to go back to the US and I always went to the Philippines for vacation because I’m a Filipina.
However, I’ve also been in China for a bit. Recently…about 3 years ago I moved to the Philippines and I thought it would be fine. How wrong I was. Pretty much I’ve hated my entire stay here (people just don’t understand and the country doesn’t agree with me weather and food wise) and pretty soon I’m going back to the US. I’ve been going through the dark side of being a TCK lately.
The depression and all but I’m glad I had my TCK friends for support even though my family doesn’t understand. The internet is like a blessing and so I found this site and was amazingly surprised. I had no idea there was such a term as TCK before until yesterday and I had no idea this was even considered a sub-culture of sorts.
So, hope to enjoy it here. ^_^ It feels like I’ve stumbled into a wonderful place like Alice’s Wonderland. If my intro sounds awkward it’s cause it is. I was never good at making intros.

hahaahh… I feel just like you with regards to Brazil (my “home” country), I think they are the most law-breaking people in the world!!!
And yes, I refuse to watch Brazilian soap operas cause I really don’t understand their point and the way they portray relationships and values… it just makes no sense to me.
I don’t relate at all to the most popular TV channel here (TV Globo), I never watch it.
And sometimes that gets me into trouble (cause I never know about the latest development in the story of soap opera X that everyone is gossiping about).
But I couldn’t care less, I just keep on watching my TV5 and DW-TV…
