Our week in Martinique has flown by so quickly. ๐Ÿ˜ We loved our time here. I felt totally frustrated that I don't speak french. Such nice people live here. It's beautiful. It's also expensive. Interestingly, most of the islands we visited on this journey remind us so much of Vietnam. ๐Ÿ˜… Tomorrow we are off again and will settle in until early 2025 when we will start making our way back to Asia. ๐Ÿคฉ #digitalnomad #family #travel #martinique #worldschooling #unschooling image

Gm โ˜€๏ธ I've been enjoying islands and we made it to the end of our cruise. ๐Ÿฅฒ I'm a bit sad because reality check, no twice daily housekeeping and endless buffet anymore. Also, back to work. ๐Ÿ˜… If anyone ever decides to do a #nostr conference on a cruise ship, I'm in. ๐Ÿ’ฏ

Sunrise is a bit too early for me out here. And sunsets are often towards the front of the ship where it is usually tricky to get a good view... Today is our last day at sea. Tomorrow morning we arrive to British Virgin Islands. ๐Ÿคฉ image

Our ocean crossing is going well. It's been beautiful weather and nice seas. Only a couple more sea days before we reach British Virgin Islands ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿคฉ image

Yesterday we left Ponta Delgada, Azores and began our trip towards British Virgin Islands. So far, the sea has been kind. It's nice and calm. We had blue skies and the temperature is nice. We went swimming today! Kids are having the best time with their friends. What an epic adventure. ๐Ÿคฉ I can't seem to upload any photo or video today, will try again when I have better internet. ๐Ÿ™Œ #digitalnomad #family #travel #grownostr

Seriously good advice I think ๐Ÿ˜… In saying that, going against the traditional narrative can at times be difficult. I get it. But anyway. I don't own a house, never have and it's likely I never will. Certain family members disapprove a lot. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ˜‚ View quoted note โ†’

Gm from the Atlantic Ocean ๐Ÿ˜ The children are having a great time with pools, water slides, kids club and friends. Also, endless food ๐Ÿ˜‚ We've been to shows and hung out in the hot tubs. It's been a lot of fun so far, still 11 days to go ๐Ÿคฉ #transatlantic #cruise #worldschooling #digitalnomad #family #travel image

We just departed Southampton on a cruise ship. My first time on a cruise experience and so far I like it. So much less stressful than airports! Little miss M was so excited she fought sleep all day and fell asleep in her high chair at dinner. Wifi is pretty rough atm so photos will follow when I sort it out. ๐Ÿ˜… The rest of the children are so happy to be with their friends. I think it's going to be an epic couple of weeks. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ’ฏ Any other #homeschool families want to be in the loop next time we do something wild like this? Let me know! #digitalnomad #family #travel #worldschooling
