The Everywhere Classroom: How One Family Turned Wanderlust into Worldschooling and How You Can Too is the story of one family’s worldschooling adventure, filled with inspiration and practical tips for anyone who wants to embrace travel as an immersive learning experience.
In this engaging and often humorous memoir, Andi Almond recounts her family’s year of global travel, revealing how the world offers rich educational opportunities beyond traditional classrooms. From the bustling medinas of Marrakesh to the high Himalayan peaks of Nepal, each chapter weaves a tapestry of encounters that pushed comfort zones, fostered growth, and deepened global awareness. The Almonds navigated essay fiascos in Johannesburg, meltdowns in Buenos Aires, and a solo teen homestay in Taiwan—experiences that made learning personal, tangible, and unforgettable.
​More than just a travelogue, The Everywhere Classroom offers a practical roadmap for families eager to turn travel into meaningful education. Throughout the book, sidebars provide curriculum ideas, hands-on learning strategies, and tips for incorporating worldschooling into trips of any length and budget. Whether it’s a weekend road trip or an extended journey across continents, Almond shows how any adventure can spark curiosity, critical thinking, and deeper connections to the world.
The book is particularly timely, tapping into the growing trend of digital nomad lifestyles and location-independent education spurred by recent global shifts. It invites families to dream big, explore with purpose, and embrace the boundless learning opportunities that travel provides.
