I've never belonged anywhere. Very confusing for a child! Mother-tongue was Berber. In Algiers had to learn Arabic and in England, English. With each language, came a different culture! I wouldn't wish this kind of experience on anyone. If I see different groups of friends in the same day, I'm different versions of me! I still haven't figured out who I am, lol

Hello Noodle--It seems unusual indeed living in different parts of the world and having to adapt. Thing is that NOW-- I should think that with your varied language and culture skills that could be a real PLUS for you as a career?

have you thought of writing a book about your life so far?

what would you like to feel like-- really-- where are you happiest or have some sense of Belonging? It must be incredibly hard trying to adapt but also could their be bonuses because of all your experiences

do you have siblings?
