AdvertisementThis as-told-to essay is based on a transcribed conversation with Sally Prag, 49, from the UK, about traveling with her parents during her childhood.
I struggled to adjust when we moved back to the UK, where I spent the rest of my childhood.
In Tanzania, we lived close to a mud hut village, and I knew the residents lived differently from us.
A childhood of traveling wasn't as glamorous as people think and I struggled with life back in the UKPeople always ask me how amazing my childhood must have been.
It really was amazing, and I'm grateful for the experiences I had, but it wasn't as glamorous as people imagine.
