Building connections through blogging: Tidbits from a TCK
In this presentation I will first define the term, “Third Culture Kid” and identify obstacles they may face when transitioning to their passport country. In the remainder “Tidbits from a TCK” to connect with other third culture kids transitioning to the US. It deals with a variety of topics such as delayed milestones, anxiety over elections, new friendships, feeling like an outsider, and accepting ourselves in all the uniqueness of our experiences. Ultimately, I argue that writing is a mechanism through which we can encourage, support, and bond with others, and that by doing so in a digital space—such as a blog—these connections can span the globe.
