    We are currently

    Travelling

    Activities we are interested in:

    We love exploring somewhere new, feeling purposeful, experiencing new cultures and languages. We're keen to learn about sustainable living and meet lots of friendly people.

  • Description

    Inquisitive family of four (should really say five, as we travel with our Border Collie, Reggie).
    We are looking for learning and adventure, discovering nature, people and culture in different countries.
    We believe there is a big, beautiful world out there still, if we can only be brave enough to break free and get out there to discover it.
    We love to spend time together travelling and want to meet people living in a more sustainable way, in order for us to learn from them, so that we can bring that more into our way of living.

  • What else ...

    We are travelling as a family of four + dog. We are home educating our two boys and want this to be part of their learning at the university of life.
    Our two boys are 9 and 11 years old. They are quite used to travelling and camping as we have done numerous overland journeys across Europe, wild camping out of the back of our old land rover.
    They are fit and strong and willing to join in with all and any projects that we get on with. They have a good knowledge of and deep interest in plants and nature.
