  • Madagascar is the rawest, most rewarding adventure you can give a child, but it definitely comes with its challenges with political instability and poor infrastructure.

[‼️Comment MADA for a link to my free guide to Madagascar with kids.] 

🌎How we did it: 

We divided our trip into 2 parts: the first half was spent exploring Western Madagascar. This is home to the iconic Avenue du Baobabs and Tsingy de Bemahara. Many people skip this part due to be bad roads and head straight to Nosy Be, which is such a shame. This is our favorite part of Madagascar! 

✈️ Domestic flights in Madagascar:

Since roads are so bad, flying is the easiest way to get around the country. Madagascar Airlines is reputed for being unreliable but we didn’t have any flight cancelled.

Domestic flights are not cheap though: our Antananarivo-Morondava return flights were €223 per person and Antananarivo-Nosy Be return flights were €323pp. All flights go through the capital. 

🚙How we got around:

Only 4% of Madagascar has paved roads; so prepare for long bumpy drives. We booked a 4x4 rental with driver for €80/day from @remoterivers (much cheaper than booking a tour). Self-drive is not recommended as it’s extremely challenging to navigate the roads here.

🐒 Wildlife parks:

At nature reserves and national parks, local guides are included in the entry fee. It’s a great way to learn more fun facts about lemurs and other wildlife. The guides are usually very knowledgeable and informative.

🛣️ Route/Itinerary:

Honestly we didn’t see many families in this part of Madagascar. But I’m a firm believer that kids can do hard things! 💪 Expect to have long driving days (8hours) — bring books, power banks, and lots of snacks! Be sure to pack dramamine if your kids get car sick.

⚠️ Follow for Part 2!!!

  • Thinking of Iran tonight.

Of all the people I’ve met in my travels, the Iranians are the most welcoming, kind and caring. 

I traveled Iran in 2014 and lost count of the number of people who stopped me on the streets to welcome me to their country, who invited me to join them for tea in the park and even share meals with them in their homes. I will never forget the kindness given so freely. 

The Iranian people deserve safety and peace, and I hope this revolution can give them the freedom to choose their own path, without foreign powers influencing events from behind the scenes.

With reports of thousands of lives lost during the current blackout, it’s more important than ever to give them a voice when they don’t have one.

Freedom for the Iranian people ❤️ #freeiran
  • Just landed in Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia 🇪🇹! I first traveled Ethiopia 9 years ago, but I can hardly recognize Addis Ababa now that it’s changed so much.

Ethiopia is Kaleya’s country #62, and she’s been wanting to come here specifically to see Lucy — the oldest hominid fossils found!

We spent our first day in Addis Ababa at the National Museum, standing in front of Lucy’s fossils (she lived 3.2million years ago!) and talking about human origins in a way no textbook could ever capture. 📚

From there we wandered through Holy Trinity Cathedral ⛪️ where a friendly monk showed us the tomb of Emperor Haile Selassie (an important figure in Ethiopian history), then we ended up at the impressive Science Museum ⚗️ where worldschooling truly came to life, learning how Ethiopia is using AI to improve agriculture and solve real-world challenges happening right now. 

We wrapped the day at Meskel Square, one of the biggest squares in Ethiopia, people watching and riding around on bikes at sunset. 🌅  For dinner, we returned to my favorite @yod.abyssinia for traditional Ethiopian meal of injera with tibs, kitfo, and many staples while enjoying live music and dance. Super thrilled to see this place still buzzing after so many years!

  • Why we worldschool our kid 🌎

We get this question all the time, so here’s our honest answer — especially if you’re curious but unsure.

1️⃣ Travel has always been part of who we are ✈️
We traveled long before becoming parents. Worldschooling lets us continue a life we love and bring our daughter along for the ride.

2️⃣ We want our child to live her dreams ✨
There are so many ways to live, learn, or define success. By seeing us pursue an unconventional lifestyle, she learns early that she gets to choose her own path.

3️⃣ We want to spend quality time with her ⏱️
Worldschooling gives us real, unrushed time together. We get to enjoy daily walks, slow mornings, and small moments that often get lost in busy schedules.

4️⃣ It builds adaptability and confidence 
New countries, languages, foods, and social situations teach flexibility, problem-solving, and resilience in a way no worksheet ever could.

5️⃣ Because learning sticks when it’s lived🧳
History makes sense when you walk through it. Geography clicks when your feet are on the ground. Real-life experiences turn learning into something fun, engaging, and memorable—not something to rush through.

  • Just checked in to the chic and playful @tintswalosummerhouse for a sneak peek sleepover — and it feels like a true summer escape! 🌊🐚🌺

Poised in front of the Glencairn beach, the charming seaside hotel is just a 1-hour drive from Cape Town and a hop away from windswept beaches, tidal pools and famous sights like Boulders Beach and Cape Point. 🐧

The 1904 heritage villa has been restored to its full glory and given a fresh and new look. @tintswalointeriors’ goal is to honor the history of this 1904 landmark while breathing new life into its walls. All the spaces are decorated with antiques collected from all over the country and every piece tells a story. 

The intimate hotel has just 12 rooms and each of them has its own character. I stayed in the Papillon Room, splashed in lilac colors and butterfly wings, and sprinkled with the gentle scent of lavender. My favorite room is the Citron Room, bright and joyful, capturing the warmth of the morning. But the Rosie Room is the one that captures the spirit of the hotel most with its all pink and cheery decor. 🍋🌻👙

Its in-house restaurant, Summer House Eatery, has an open-fire dining concept, serving up Mediterranean dishes prepared with the freshest organic produce all sourced from local farms. we feasted on an enormous t-bone steak, grilled yellowtail fish, toasty aubergine and decadent chocolate desserts. All washed down with bubbles and a soothing tea-tasting session!

I love hotels that are destinations on their own. This is the perfect spot to stay for travelers who want to explore the Cape Peninsula without squeezing all your sights into one long day trip and for Capetonians looking for a quiet seaside escape.💙

Freedom for the Iranian people ❤️ #freeiran
Thinking of Iran tonight.

Of all the people I’ve met in my travels, the Iranians are the most welcoming, kind and caring. 

I traveled Iran in 2014 and lost count of the number of people who stopped me on the streets to welcome me to their country, who invited me to join them for tea in the park and even share meals with them in their homes. I will never forget the kindness given so freely.

Just landed in Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia 🇪🇹! I first traveled Ethiopia 9 years ago, but I can hardly recognize Addis Ababa now that it’s changed so much. Ethiopia is Kaleya’s country #62, and she’s been wanting to come here specifically to see Lucy — the oldest hominid fossils found! We spent our first day in Addis Ababa at the National Museum, standing in front of Lucy’s fossils (she lived 3.2million years ago!) and talking about human origins in a way no textbook could ever capture. 📚 From there we wandered through Holy Trinity Cathedral ⛪️ where a friendly monk showed us the tomb of Emperor Haile Selassie (an important figure in Ethiopian history), then we ended up at the impressive Science Museum ⚗️ where worldschooling truly came to life, learning how Ethiopia is using AI to improve agriculture and solve real-world challenges happening right now. We wrapped the day at Meskel Square, one of the biggest squares in Ethiopia, people watching and riding around on bikes at sunset. 🌅 For dinner, we returned to my favorite @yod.abyssinia for traditional Ethiopian meal of injera with tibs, kitfo, and many staples while enjoying live music and dance. Super thrilled to see this place still buzzing after so many years! 👋Hi! I’m Nellie, a travel writer and adventurous mum. I share all I’ve learned about digital nomad family travel here. So glad you’re here! 🌏 Addis ababa | Ethiopia travel | Ethiopia with kids | worldschooling in Ethiopia #ethiopiawithkids #addisababa #worldschooling #digitalnomadfamily

Why we worldschool our kid 🌎

We get this question all the time, so here’s our honest answer — especially if you’re curious but unsure.

1️⃣ Travel has always been part of who we are ✈️
We traveled long before becoming parents. Worldschooling lets us continue a life we love and bring our daughter along for the ride.

2️⃣ We want our child to live her dreams ✨
There are so many ways to live, learn, or define success. By seeing us pursue an unconventional lifestyle, she learns early that she gets to choose her own path.

3️⃣ We want to spend quality time with her ⏱️
Worldschooling gives us real, unrushed time together. We get to enjoy daily walks, slow mornings, and small moments that often get lost in busy schedules.

4️⃣ It builds adaptability and confidence 
New countries, languages, foods, and social situations teach flexibility, problem-solving, and resilience in a way no worksheet ever could.

5️⃣ Because learning sticks when it’s lived🧳
History makes sense when you walk through it. Geography clicks when your feet are on the ground. Real-life experiences turn learning into something fun, engaging, and memorable—not something to rush through.

Just checked in to the chic and playful @tintswalosummerhouse for a sneak peek sleepover — and it feels like a true summer escape! 🌊🐚🌺 Poised in front of the Glencairn beach, the charming seaside hotel is just a 1-hour drive from Cape Town and a hop away from windswept beaches, tidal pools and famous sights like Boulders Beach and Cape Point. 🐧 The 1904 heritage villa has been restored to its full glory and given a fresh and new look. @tintswalointeriors’ goal is to honor the history of this 1904 landmark while breathing new life into its walls. All the spaces are decorated with antiques collected from all over the country and every piece tells a story. The intimate hotel has just 12 rooms and each of them has its own character. I stayed in the Papillon Room, splashed in lilac colors and butterfly wings, and sprinkled with the gentle scent of lavender. My favorite room is the Citron Room, bright and joyful, capturing the warmth of the morning. But the Rosie Room is the one that captures the spirit of the hotel most with its all pink and cheery decor. 🍋🌻👙 Its in-house restaurant, Summer House Eatery, has an open-fire dining concept, serving up Mediterranean dishes prepared with the freshest organic produce all sourced from local farms. we feasted on an enormous t-bone steak, grilled yellowtail fish, toasty aubergine and decadent chocolate desserts. All washed down with bubbles and a soothing tea-tasting session! I love hotels that are destinations on their own. This is the perfect spot to stay for travelers who want to explore the Cape Peninsula without squeezing all your sights into one long day trip and for Capetonians looking for a quiet seaside escape.💙 📍@tintswalosummerhouse [opening in April 2026!] — Glencairn, South Africa 🇿🇦 [hosted stay] 👋Hi!
