I（）to meet my new roommates.

n up in a different culture to that of their parents.There are great things about experiencing such a unique childhood.Third culture kids can also face many challenges.

I was born in England, to English parents.When I was two years old my dad got a new job in Poland.Since then I have lived in four other countries around the world.Although I have a British passport，I sometimes don't feel very English at all!

One of the best things about moving around a lot when I was younger experiencing many diverse cultures and countries.I was able to try different foods, learn different languages, experience different traditions and meet people from different backgrounds.I am also lucky to have friends all over the world that I keep in regular contact with.

However, it wasn't always easy.It often felt like I had only just settled in to the new school city and culture before my parents told me we were moving again.Leaving my friends behind was damaging as a child.I have lost touch with many people I was very close to because one of us moved country.It was also very disorientating to have an English passport, but not feel very English at all.Because I had no access to English culture, returning home, often felt like visiting a foreign country.Happily, now I feel more at home in England—although the question, “where are you from？” still confuses me!
