Oh the sunrises over La Ventana | Day 352 of my 2023 Journal

Cecilie Conrad·Dec 18, 2023· 1 minute

Oh, the sunrises.

In La Ventana, it made a lot of sense to get up at five in the morning to enjoy the sunrise from pitch dark over extreme beauty to bright daylight.

Every day.

In La Ventana, we took turns going down with a virus, fevers, and loss of voice.

So, days are lovely and sometimes slow.

A bit of paddleboard.

A bit of lunch.

Some coffee.

A walk.

Hot tub and stars and an early night.

Beautiful. 

With love

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.
