Welcome to Valencia, Spain!
We boarded the plane in London headed to Valencia! Everyone was in a great mood and there was even a group celebrating someone’s “hen do” that we all cheered for as we boarded the small commuter plane for the 90 minute flight. However, once onboard, we were stuck on the tarmac for an hour because……

Travel Daze
Hi Friends, Bhakti and Jagger here together today! Happy Valentines Day! Zach is a great Valentine to Bhakti and got us some delicious strawberry croissant from the airport kiosk. It was a sweet, (see what I did there) way to enjoy the travel day with an eye on the value of our relationship. We have…

And Away We Go!
Look out world, here we come! Hi Friends, Bhakti here, This (almost) 12 week trip is the longest we have taken. People keep asking if we are “getting excited” and I keep thinking, “I’m getting all the feelings.” We are totally excited of course. Also nervous and uneasy and sad to leave our home base…

Beach Day!
Hi Friends, Jagger here. On beach day one in Kauai, we saw a ray and (guess what) a humuhumunukunukuapuaa! That’s actually the state fish of Hawaii (pictured below) It’s also a Hawaiian word and it is very long.

I’m thinking a lot today about what amazing things happened that got us here. A homeschool family, episodic worldschoolers with a deep affection for animals, nature and great food! So first…

Big Blue and You
Jagger has been OBSESSED with the ocean his whole life. Born in and raised in two landlocked states his obsession was largely academic. At 2 he knew more ocean animals than most adults (a fact he proved famously at his second birthday party beating all the adults at marine trivia). When he turned 3 he…

Farm Tour Kauai
Lydgate Farm may have been the highlight of our trip. Bhakti here, and when I asked Jagger his favorite thing we did in Hawaii, Lydgate topped the list! The tour is rather expensive, but for our nature enthusiast it was completely worth it. I have to say I learned a TON too! Lydgate produces some…

The Fruits of Kauai Hawaii
Jagger here. Almost as soon as we heard about all the unique fruits on this island, we saw this weird looking fella at a small local farmer’s market. I know what you’re thinking, ewwwwww why would you eat that?! While it may look slimy and fibrous, believe me, it tastes like a delicious Jolly Rancher!…
