What's the impact of labels and in our increasingly mobile world? What does home mean when we live in a place that’s culturally different from where our parents originated? What are the potential advantages and challenges of life as a third culture kid? Vicky’s TEDx talk was inspired by research into the social phenomenon of TCKs.

Vicky Schdeva was born into a cross-cultural, visible-minority family and has lived in Prague for most of her life. Almost every day she navigates the multicultural, multilingual worlds of her home and her school community, and the historically more monocultural society of the Czech Republic.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
