  • Wonderful Resource for Families

    This podcast offers an in depth look at world schooling from diverse perspectives in digestible and accessible episodes with different themes. As a family on our first world schooling adventure, I found this podcast to be a wonderful resource both for inspiration and resources. Thank for you for this offering. It fills a much needed niche in the world school space. If you are open to creating some teen/tween themed episodes we would love to hear those!

  • Inspiring My Journey

    We’re planning our family worldschool adventure and it’s so comforting and building my confidence to hear other families talk about theirs adventures, the ups and downs, and planning resources. It was also a relief to hear guests talk about one of the world school hubs we’ll be visiting. Love it!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

51. Full Time Travel Doesn’t Fix Your Problems (And What It Does Instead) with Astrid & Clint from Worldschooling Q&A
Q: And then we'll also share more about your podcast, because if people are wanting to learn more about world schooling, that's a great place to start with the Q&A sessions that you have. Tell me a little more about where travel started for each of you.
Astrid and Clint describe early travel roots: Astrid's Peace Corps years and international upbringing, and Clint's domestic travels in the US; their paths converged after moving to Seattle and then Europe, sparking a love for long-term travel and world schooling.
50. Study Abroad in Germany in 1969 to Around the World in 1975: What World Travel Looked Like 50+ Years Ago with Grandma Marcia
Q: What advice would you have for someone wondering whether to take a trip like that before having kids?
Just go for it. It's worth planning and organizing, but it's also feasible today with many more reservation options and hubs to rely on, and the experience can be transformative even if some moments are challenging.
49. Roadschooling Teens: Full-Time RV with Older Kids while Remote Working
Q: What advice would you give to a family just starting out in the RV world?
Find a balance that allows long-term travel while still enjoying experiences and staying within budget, such as cooking at home to save, while splurging occasionally on special travel experiences, and staying flexible about RV size and setup as the family grows or changes needs.
49. Roadschooling Teens: Full-Time RV with Older Kids while Remote Working
Q: How do you make full-time work on the road for your family?
They rely on multiple internet solutions and hotspots, with a practical approach to work-life balance on the road, including shifting work spaces within the RV and maintaining connectivity across locations to support remote jobs.
49. Roadschooling Teens: Full-Time RV with Older Kids while Remote Working
Q: Has it always been online learning with a curriculum or with a district, or how did that switch?
They've gradually let the elder child choose his path, using a mix of online courses, self-designed projects, and occasional in-person options, emphasizing student choice and reducing debt, with planning to meet graduation standards through GED or district testing as needed.
