Homeschooling, Worldschooling, and unschooling with Robyn Robertson
Robyn Robertson is a full time unschooling mom to two fun loving kids. She grew up as a mixed heritage kid, traveling in 7 different countries by the time she was 6 years old. She found her experiences around the world early on had given her a viewpoint on life unlike many others. As a mom, she chose to share that with her growing family. After years of “dreaming” with her husband to leave the rat race and return to a life of travel and more family time, they decided that waiting “until...” would never happen. They chose a destination and time limit - 6 months in Jamaica - and said if it doesn’t work we can always just return to the life we had been living. 6 months turned into years. Robyn and her family have since lived in the Caribbean, Seoul, and are currently enjoying the quiet Canadian country life. http://imhomeschooling.com/
