Thrive

After 4th grade we ditched the American public school system for the twins and started to focus on child led learning. So we packed our bags and started exploring the world slowly. First in England, happily avoiding a language barrier. Then we got more adventurous. We found out we love the jungle AND the mountains. The beach is beautiful and so is a field full of sheep. Monuments are cool to explore, but so is local community and daily life that's different from our own. We've realized how much we love to live outside of the box!

Traveling has brought our family closer together and expanded each of our comfort zones. We've faced challenges together and overcome some pretty hefty obstacles. It's amazing how much we've learned we are capable of.

But that doesn't mean we want to keep doing it all alone. All that freedom can sometimes bring on some loneliness. 

Our worldschooling adventures have brought us face to face with the most amazing families choosing this unconventional path and honestly? Spending time with you all and sharing these experiences is one of our absolute favorite things. 

Discovering Worldschooling hubs has been a game changer. That sense of community, the group that we don't have to explain ourselves to, those folks that have so much wisdom to share with us from their lived experiences... That's you!

Spend your time between hubs with the same community feel, support, freedom, and a bit of adventure- in bite sized pieces. A sub-hub!

This is an amazing opportunity for kids to connect and for parents too! Real conversation, gentle coaching, games & just hanging out together. The chance to let your guard down and peacefully coexist with other families. 

Activities will be offered throughout the day. Everything is optional so you can opt in based on your family's pace. Most are immersive, hands-on experiences — balanced with slower, more relaxed meetups so the energy stays sustainable. We'll explore local museums, zoos, playgrounds, and more. Evenings bring the group together for adult hangouts, family activities, and potluck-style dinners. 

We're here to grow and explore as families, together. Parents can easily tag-team throughout the day, and if you ever need time to work, rest, or simply breathe, private childcare can be arranged separately.

To keep you connected with other families, each pop-up has private whatsapp groups for chatting, schedule reminders, arranging childcare, and sharing pictures. 

Suggested Weekly Contribution to the community per family: 1-2 weeks: £100 per week, 3-5 weeks: £75 per week.

Families coordinate their own transportation, accommodation, and meals. The suggested contribution is purely for community events — we leave everything else out on purpose, because we never want cost to be a reason someone can't join us. 

Not sure where to start with accommodations? 

Your hosts are staying near River Hamble, but here is a link to all local hotels.

Keep an open mind and don't dismiss certain types of lodging just because you're with family. You'd be surprised. From finding local families who love hosting worldschoolers to hostels with private family dorm rooms, to traveling in a camper van,.. the options might just surprise you.
