How to get Independent children
From personal freedom grows independent persons. Children need the right to pursue their own path in life.
What we learn from fear - The nomadic blessing of the moment
We do not act on fear. But we listen. Fear can be a good signal, an alarm bell, so we can listen to it and asks: what do I need to learn here?
Nothing will be impossible for you!
I am often met by the notion, the idea: "I am lucky to have this kind of life" - It is not luck. I have chosen to stay in the light!
I used to be a feminist
We need to find a new kind of life, a better balance for everyone. I believe in personal freedom for everyone. And in true and humble respect for the dignity in everyone. By everyone.
Risk taking with a purpose
I am reading this book and I just love it, Antifragile. It is a perfect concept. This is how we are strong: Risktakers, awake and alive, ready for mistakes and trouble, ready to learn and grow, ready for what we could not even have thought about.
Are we homeless?
Technically we are homeless – But the abundance of freedom, the beautiful sunshine, the adventures, and the peace is amazing.
Be my valentine
We believe it was no coincidence, we saw the red bus for the first time on Valentine’s day. The red bus has everything to do with love.
Do we live the dreamlife?
We have the freedom and the means to go where we want to go; we earn enough to live the life we want, we do the education at home; no one is attached full time anywhere.

Our Weekly Art & Nature Challenge! One of the big wins of the unschooling, full-time traveling & digital nomad lifestyle is time. Time to be together. Time to enjoy life together. Time to explore. Time to … Yeah, what exactly?
Follow Your Dreams, They know the way

Home is where you park it
We have been a nomad family for two and a half years. It is not an eternity, but it is a long time. The kids have grown, we have all learned. The question of home has been a big one.
Does school prepare children for work?
Children are forced to internalize the values and structures of society, telling them school is for the better. Let us set the children free.
On #unschooling: Studying Sokrates and the discipline of logic.
My sons are laughing so hard, they can hardly stand, as we were voluntary and together in our home – studying Sokrates and the discipline of logic.
We have SELECTED our options
We have CHOSEN to create a life where we can unschool our children. It is a question of whether it is important enough to fight for.
Travelblog about life and death, gratefulness and places
In this blog post, I share our journey through two weeks of late summer 2020. I take you to some nature sights of Denmark, write about experiencing Shakespeare with children, share the meaningfulness of board games, celebrate anniversaries and birthdays, and share how it feels to visit parents.
Breaking the silence - My personal COVID response

Worldschooling: A Journey Beyond Education into Mental Health, Friendships, and Personal Growth
It is not just a question of education, it is a question of being. In this life. In an alternative way. With the home base on the planet, eternally changing location, yet staying with ourselves.
Hacks on happiness
Happiness is not about pure luck and uncontrollable fortunate circumstances. Living a truly happy life is about focus, choice, and willingness to let go and to work for it.
