Most TCK, or, Third Culture Kids, can’t quite put a finger on exactly what that term means. But not so with 10-year-old Isabelle Kristensson. Born of European parents, Isabelle spent a couple of years in Shanghai a few years back, then moved to California. She loved her school, the community and life in America, but not long after their move she longed for another overseas adventure and jumped at the chance to move back to Shanghai. What is it about expat life that has her coming back for more, and how is it that she feel so at home wherever life as a TCK takes her? Tune in to find out!

I really wanted to come back overseas. I mean, life here is exciting and challenging.
