Anyone who has lived overseas for an extended period of time has looked back at least once on their experience and wondered how they managed to overcome the cultural issues they faced while abroad. This may sound ridiculous but it never ceases to amaze how bits and peaces of cultural unawareness and bewilderment can later lead to an even deeper understanding and appreciation.
Most of what was stated above is encapsulated in the words of our guest this episode, Mr. Will Brooks. Will is an active blogger and web broadcaster from the West Coast of the United States but for this episode joins us from the place he now calls home, South Korea. Hear and follow how he and his Korean wife are raising their TCK child (third culture kid). Tune in to hear how Will learned to not let false impressions affect him and how his persistence helped him open doors that weren’t previously available.
