In our original recording with @sophiaslice from @floaters_podcast we had an extra segment that we found hilarious, but didn't quite match the tone of the episode. If anyone on Broadway makes our idea, you heard it here first!

With a mixed heritage of German, Spanish and English and growing up in Nigeria, Colombia, Estonia and Poland, Sophia shares experiences about boarding schools, moving back in with her whole family since she was little, and how history is best told by older family. Together we share cooking tips and our mutual experiences starting DIY independent podcasts!  This episode doesn't include a following bonus segment, which features our pitched collaboration project: Jurassic Park: the Musical.

For this episode we digitally sat down, despite a few technical issues, with Natasha Ibrahim, whose complicated background includes India, Pakistan, Uganda, Canada, the USA and Australia and was calling in from Costa Rica. Natasha is a travel blogger, fitness model and global nomad entrepreneur! We talk about adapting accents to new environments when moving, the responsibilities of travel bloggers when promoting tourism, and how to choose your career path by what you want, rather than what is expected of you.  Music: Funkorama by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3788-funkorama License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thirdculturet/message

For our season 3 premiere, we invited Ruth E. van Reken, the co-author of "Third Culture Kids: Growing Up Between Worlds" on the podcast! We chat about the history of getting Third Culture Kids as terminology into publication and its development over the years with now three editions of the book, the wider umbrella of increasingly diverse cross-cultural stories, and how culture is a shared concept, which is what makes TCKs a collective of individuals that are, themselves, each a collective of cultural influences.
