Hey there everyone,

It has been quite a while since I've been online.. (I know I swore I would never be gone).. Life took many turns for me the last few months and things are finally falling into place naturally for me and my family again.

I have loads to share with all of you and look forward to catching up with whats happened by you too!♥

Many new adventures and doors have started opening up for me.. leading me into lots of stress and fret haha along with great joy.

Our attempt at "homesteading" was an epic fail here thanks to political circumstances, I now only have two horses left who reside on a friends farm and we sadly haven't seen them in months due to them living with the herd in a valley.

After trying to be open minded about our local schooling system, I have been extremely disappointed and have taken my eldest daughter out of "conventional" school during the first term this year.. and my youngest has just decided now during the easter holiday that she is done with all that nonsense. We had a very interesting lady visit us today for business and she just couldn't agree more with me that it's just not even worth attempting to put our kids into schools now days not to even start on the varsities here!

My hubby's folks emigrated to New Zealand last year, before they left they invested in a food trailor for us :) This has been such a rollercoaster of an adventure and utter hair pulling experience at times hey.

I have had many rescue animals come and go since my last posts with you all.

Finally my holistic studies are mostly completed, unfortunately I then found out that it is not a career that will earn me my due, so it has all been hung on the line for now.

Recently I had a chat with our fur babies groomer and she sparked the delightful idea to qualify as a groomer myself seeing as I already invest so much time into fur babies. haha and yes I have already found a course that I think is perfect.. so as soon as this wonderful thing called "funds" are available I will be enrolling and hopefully this time I have found my purpose.

Anyways,, It's getting late this side and I am rather tired.

Look forward to hearing from you all soon!!♥

Welcome back!

Where are you based?

My two are still under the age of 4 but I have no intention of ever sending them to a school. For so many reasons! As long as I am available for them, they will learn far more than they ever would at a school.

Here in France I will have to register them as homeschooled if I intend to be legal.

I believe we all have the same purpose here. To be joyful! Simple as that. But always useful to pick up as many skills as possible along the way ;)

Don't think about the money. If it feels great, do it. Money comes in unexpected ways when we are following our natural flow.

Thanks! I'm in South Africa..

I agree with what you say, our kids learn a lot more from seeing our actions etc.. than being in an indoctrinated school system.

I wish I could have your optimistic mindset regarding money flowing in unexpected ways.. haha I feel like I work my rump off for every little bit :-D

I admire your family's guts to travel as you do with your kids its truly inspirational!

I'm sure my vote isn't that great but maybe it add something for the mid/future funds pile for the course. It sucks that the homesteading did not go well but the experience itself will be something that you will remember always and will bring lots of laughs ad stories while enjoying family time. I really hope the best s to come for you and cannot wait to hear more updates from you.

Thanks @raserrano!

I look forward to keeping in touch in future and reading your stories too.
