What happens to your child’s education when your family decides to travel the world?
For Kent and Michelle, that was one of the biggest questions they faced before beginning their 10-month journey with their daughter, Everly.
In Episode 30 of the Frenchitivity Podcast, we take a closer look at worldschooling—what it means, how we approached it, and why education became one of the most important parts of our family’s adventure.
We begin by sharing a little of our story: why we chose to travel, why we chose to do it when we did, and the signs that told us our family needed more time and connection together.
From there, we explore the questions so many parents have about alternative education. What’s the difference between homeschooling, roadschooling, unschooling, and worldschooling? Is there a “right” age to begin? And how do you make it work alongside your family’s responsibilities, work, and bigger vision?
Michelle shares how she began researching resources before we left—and how simply asking questions at Everly’s school opened the door to an unexpected support system.
But once we were on the road, something became clear: the world itself was becoming one of Everly’s greatest teachers.
From castles in Portugal and ancient Greek ruins to the Great Barrier Reef, museums, aquariums, and the people we met along the way, learning began showing up in places we never could have planned.
We also talk about the importance of letting your child help shape the journey, finding community through a worldschool hub, and how these experiences influenced not just Everly’s education, but our entire family.
This episode isn’t about telling you there’s one right way to educate your child. It’s about sharing what we learned, the questions we asked, and the possibilities that opened up when we began looking at education a little differently.
If you’ve ever wondered whether worldschooling could work for your family, this conversation is for you.
