Want to keep up with Unschoolers on Twitter? Little Blue School just did a post on homeschoolers on Twitter, but Unschoolers seemed to be missing, or at least hidden in the list.

  • Marcella said:

    Found your blog while browsing today-and noticed your thoughts on breastfeeding in Costa Rica. We lived there for a number of years and learned to know the language quite well. One of our children is Costa Rican born and our other children were all nurslings there. My thoughts are positive about nursing-I had maids and friends that all seemed fine with it. I think men who avert their eyes would be doing it as a social respect.
    Check the Tico Times calendar-La Leche League has meetings there the last I knew.
    All the best,Marcella

    Great list! You are right unschoolers are hard to find!

    We’re eclectic unschoolers who have been traveling the world non-stop since 2006 on just 23 dollars a day ( mostly in “expensive” Europe so far) and would love to be on your list!

    @soultravelers3

    We’re traveling in Provence, France right now ( learning about Romans at Pont du Gard) and have very little internet time, but as soon as I do, I’ll add everyone hear and make an unschool list.

    Thanks for collecting these!
