You Know You're a TCK When…

We all know that feeling when another TCK just gets you. This is a book built from those moments, one shared line at a time.

The Prompt

Finish the sentence

There's no wrong answer, funny, tender, oddly specific, or all three. Whatever makes another Third Culture Kid nod and say "yes, exactly."
