Ever dreamt of packing up your life and traveling the world? That’s exactly what our guest, Rachel Carlson, and her family did. Rachel shares her family's exhilarating journey of full-time travel, encapsulating the beauty of stepping away from conventional norms to embrace a world brimming with adventures.

Rachel shared her family's transition into a nomadic lifestyle, selling their home and flinging themselves into the world with the belief that stability doesn't always equate to success. 

Rachel is the creator of the Worldschool PopUp Hubs - a popup world-school community where full-time travelers and people dip their toes into what worldschooling is. The Worldschool Pop-Up Hubs grew out of a desire to meet and connect with other world schoolers. These hubs provide a unique platform for world schoolers to gather, share experiences, and explore the world together. The gatherings are designed to accept all traveling families openly, offering a safe space for connection, engagement, and affordable exploration. Rachel emphasizes that worldschooling can be a sustainable lifestyle, with many experiences coming without a hefty price tag.

Join us as we unpack a lifestyle that challenges traditional norms and offers an invigorating perspective on living and learning. This episode will inspire any would-be adventurers out there to consider the road less traveled.

🗓️ Recorded July 26th, 2023. 📍Wigston, UK
