Life of a Military Child

As a military child things can be tough. For example, all my friends move so quickly after they come. Now when I move I will lose them all at once.

I’m a civilian, so I don’t move very much. I have been in Japan since pre-school. That would be six years!

I have only lived in three different places. First, comes Germany, where I was born, then I went to Detroit, Michigan. Lastly, I’m now in Japan. Although, I have visited amazing places like Pennsylvania. I have also visited Cleveland, Ohio and Chattanooga, Tennessee.

Being a military child is also fun because you can see so many cultures and go to different places. In Japan, I have been to Osaka where my family and I enjoyed the theme park, Universal Studios. Also, I have been to Okinawa to go to the amazing aquarium with all kinds of sea creatures. Another place in Japan I have been to is Kyoto where I experienced a traditional tea ceremony.

As you can see, when you are a military child you can do many things.
