An Interview with a Family of Serial Hobbyists
An interview with Alyssa Erickson from kidproject.org
Listen to the podcast here
In this episode, I’m chatting with Alyssa Erickson – a lady who loves outdoor adventure and a mom of 3 who has quite a few tips for helping kiddos love the outdoors.
We met Alyssa and her family in Maine a couple of summers ago and fell in love with their passion for the outdoors. They do all sorts of things with their kids we only dream of doing like backpacking, epic mountain hikes, and so much more, so it was a real treat to have her on the podcast.
In this episode, we’re chatting about why we love getting outdoors and traveling with our kids, what that looks like when it comes to school, work, and home life, and a few creative homeschooling solutions for families who like to travel a few months out of the year.
I hope you love it!
