Bremen | Day 193 of my 2023 Journal

We visited the science museum Universum. It is a good one of its sort, with only one downside - the lack of oxygen! Would they please open a window?!

We are traveling with Ina's family, so the group is ten people and two dogs. It is a blast! The way we can make a base, group, and re-group and enjoy experiences and conversations in different constellations is nice. The museum allowed us to lift a car, work with magnetism, look at a real human brain, work with gravity, and enjoy artwork.

The rain stopped us from going for a city walk. Instead, we spend forever looking for Thai boxes. In the end, we found a cool neighborhood and very nice food, but it was not worth the 2,5 hours.

Here is what I don’t like: putting my attention on what I don’t like.

Yet sometimes, I must admit, I do get annoyed!

I can turn it around and talk about all of the good stuff, but I will not. I will leave it be and move on.

Love and light

Unschooling and Parent consulting, conversations, blogposts, and podcasts on family life and learning

Hi, I'm Cecilie Conrad. I'm a trained psychologist, mother of four, radical unschooler and full-time traveller. I have lived with unschooling for over a decade and help other families find their own path – whether it is about homeschooling, unschooling, or the bigger question of how you want to live as a family.

I offer guidance, conversations and talks. I call my work grandmothering – not coaching in the traditional sense, but presence, professional insight and concrete help navigating motherhood and finding your way home to your own values.

Am I the right person to help you? You can book a free discovery call, and we'll talk and figure it out.

Listen to my podcasts

I share my knowledge and curiosity about family life and learning in my two podcasts.
