🌎 Astrid Vinje and Clint Bush join the show to deconstruct their four-year journey as a full-time traveling family. From a travel conference in Canada to navigating the pandemic in Southeast Asia, they share how they transitioned from a stable life in Seattle to a four-year worldschooling odyssey.

👍 From riding scooters through the rice paddies of Bali to navigating the social famine and feast of worldschooling hubs, they discuss the deep growth that comes from being uncomfortable and the reality of transitioning children back into public schools.

✨ 5 Questions Answered:

  • How do you fund long-term travel without selling your home? Discover the financial mechanics of their journey, including leveraging remote work renting out their home.
  • What does eclectic unschooling actually look like? From swimming with whale sharks and exploring Spanish ruins to why their kids ended up ahead of their peers when they returned to the classroom.
  • What are the true costs of a family stay in Lisbon? Get a transparent look at their $8,000+ monthly budget in Portugal.
  • What is the social famine and feast of nomadic life? Learn about the intense emotional spikes of worldschooling hubs and why balancing high-energy community time with quiet family months is the key to avoiding burnout.
  • How do you handle the "post-travel depression" of coming home? Clint opens up about the emotional challenge of returning to stationary life, the feeling of regression, and why the return journey requires as much communication as the departure.
