Harper Layng discusses her perspective of being a third culture kid and its many challenges. Being an American national forced to move due to her parent's work, she mentions the challenges she has faced in the many changes to her livelihoods and talks about the many struggles she has engaged with trying to find her identity.
Amongst the many downsides, Harper also discusses the positives she has gained from exploring the world and her identity's diversity through the many changes to her way of life. Harper Layng is a student at ISU, marking the sixth school she has attended, with Uganda being the eighth country she has resided in. Born in Johannesburg, South Africa, she has travelled Africa extensively, with a brief stay in Asia. Her family's involvement with the US embassy has facilitated these global relocations. Harper is proficient in three official languages: Portuguese from Mozambique, Kiswahili from Tanzania, and French from Congo. However, she admits to having forgotten two of them over time. Her life as a Third Culture Kid (TCK) has given in her a profound passion for a global perspective and worldview, shaped by her unique experiences. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
