Hi friends! In this video I’m taking you along on a really special birthday excursion to Ganvie while we’re living in West Africa. This was one of those days that reminds me why I love homeschooling abroad—learning doesn’t have to stay inside a book. We got to experience the culture up close, make memories together as a family, and just soak in the beauty of being somewhere completely different than what we’re used to. If you’re a homeschool family (or you’re just dreaming about travel and real-life learning), this kind of outing is such a good reminder that adventures can be part of your routine. I love turning days like this into natural learning—geography, history, community life, and even just practicing flexibility as a family. I’m sharing the excursion so you can see what it’s like, get inspired for your own homeschool adventures, and hopefully feel encouraged if you’re navigating life abroad too.
