Depending on the person and situation, I’ll have different answers to that dreaded question. I’ll tell white lies and change my story as I go, like many other TCKs. Sometimes I’ll go for the quick answer: Finland and Senegal. Other times I’ll tell the whole story: that I was born in Helsinki, Finland, moved to Luxembourg, then to Brussels, Belgium, and finally to London, England. Or I might say that my mum is from Finland and dad from Senegal, but that I really feel like my home is in the U.K. now.
