As a third-culture kid ever since I was born I was exposed to a mix of cultures, tastes, smells, and colors that defined my particular way of perceiving the world.  Sometimes this way was not very accepted by the paradigm of “normal” so I constantly had to create different ways to be understood.  This witch was often a challenge and became a power that helped me in my adult years to comprehend how diversity, instead of being a setback, is a great advantage in our globalized world.
