In episode 27 I interview Erin Jackson. Erin was born and raised in the Michiana area of Michigan and ISouth Bend Indiana. She spent most of her early life in the country, living in a house that her dad and brother built from the ground up. At about 12 or 13, when her parents split, she started living in the city of South Bend during the week and weekends with her dad and back in the country with her mother. Setting her sights on the big city for college, Erin moved to Chicago and studied photography at Columbia College. After graduating, she went on to Phoenix and continue pursuing a freelance career as a photographer, while moonlighting as a first-grade teacher. However, in 2012, a greater calling beckoned her and she moved to Korea. Now, eight years later, she has had quite a riveting adventure, from starting a new career on a new continent, and immersing herself in a new culture as an educator, Erin's journey is one that captures motherhood, interracial love and heartbreak, being a single mother to the most incredible third culture child, and the highs and lows of being a black woman with a mixed race child, figuring out a homogeneous society such as Korea.
