Digital Nomad Global Kid TV Stories
November 02, 2012
OH! THE PLACES YOU WILL GO! When you are a global kid who has been traveling the world non-stop for 7 years to 44 countries on 5 continents, playing violin and piano as you roam, learning Mandarin and Spanish like a native...sometimes you need a little "show and tell" to help your best friends understand your travel lifestyle.
Mozart uses lots of the photos from the blog when she is emailing friends in other parts of the world, as it's a quick way for her to grab them and explain, like her recent birthday party. Sometimes when the Chinese students at her school are perplexed about her unusual life like playing violin in the Sahara at 6 or sailing on the Turquoise Coast in Turkey or climbing up Tiger's Nest in Bhutan or whatever, she has the photos to help them grasp the reality. She can even introduce different friends from around the world to each other.
Luckily, we not only have many popular videos on Youtube about our travels, but she has also been on TV quite a few times on our world trip, much to our surprise. She was on a Japanese show while in Croatia, on BBC around the world once and then interviewed by BBC another time, on TV in Hong Kong and China with her Grandmother and on FOX TV in the USA. So these videos are another way for her to share some of her life experiences with friends.
We originally started the blog to keep a record for her and stay in touch with family, but we never knew it would be like this, inspire others, and a handy tool for her as well in many ways. It was really a different world when we were planning this trip in 2004, but it's turned out better than we expected. A nomadic lifestyle with children can have many surprises along the way!
OH!
THE PLACES YOU'LL GO!
You'll be on your way up!
You'll be seeing great sights!
You'll join the high fliers
who soar to high heights.
