Discussing this week in our nomestia diaries- was there a mule in actual jeans? Puppies- eight of them. Items we are running out of now we have been in Morocco four months- does a Alum Stone actually work for your armpits for example? A booze cruise (cruise) gone wrong. An update on our cat's nemesis creating more carnage.

Each episode opens up conversations around current life, emotional realities of navigating this world in unconventional ways. We speak to the practical rhythms behind alternative lifestyles, while also holding space for the deeper layers at times such as identity, connection, capacity, and choice.

This is a space for nuance. For the beauty and the friction. For the parts that don’t always make it online. That’s the beauty of podcast.

If you’re curious about living and parenting outside the mainstream, homeschooling while travelling, or creating a life that feels more spacious and aligned, these conversations offer an honest window into what that can look like.

We Designed Your Perfect Day in Marrakech (From Sunrise Gardens to Rooftop Nights).

We share everything we wish we had known before visiting Marrakech with and without children from how to navigate the Medina to how to experience Marrakech in a way that actually supports your nervous system, so you don’t just see Marrakech… you enjoy it.

If you’re planning a trip to Marrakech and want more than just ticking off sights, this episode walks you through a beautifully curated, slow-paced perfect day in Marrakech. Not out of Marrakech all within this area.

We begin in the quieter corners of the Medina before moving through hidden gardens, historic architecture, local markets, and rooftop dining- ending the day in the electric atmosphere of Jemaa el-Fnaa.

From peaceful spaces like Le Jardin Secret to iconic spots like Jardin Majorelle, we explore both the well-known and the tucked-away.

(We have three children and have been to Marrakesh as a solo trip and with children).

Expect:

hidden gems in the Marrakech Medina

where to eat (including rooftops)

cultural sites like Ben Youssef Madrasa

and how to actually feel Marrakech rather than rush it

This is your invitation to experience Marrakech with depth, softness, and intention.

In this episode, we share from the coast of Safi in Morocco on three topics. First, we chat about why Alan Sugar would love the Ouzoud Waterfalls. We then move on to just how horrendous the Ceuta border run was for us, personally. Finally, we explore whether Ali was risking death by not dealing with his foot after trying to break up a cat fight.

In this episode, we sit down by the “fire”, or more accurately, around our table in our Mercedes Vario in Morocco with Kate and Roger to talk all things van life.

We explore the journey that brought them here, from selling their home to travelling across Europe and into North Africa in their VW Crafter with their 8-year-old. This conversation weaves through the emotional and practical realities of choosing a life on the road the shifts, the challenges, and the freedom found along the way.

*Please note the beginning of the audio has a couple of interruptions which couldn’t be edited but it rectifies soon in.

In nomestia Fireside, we gather in conversation with women and families who are choosing to live differently.

These are not polished interviews or performative stories. They are honest exchanges, the kind that unfold slowly, there’s background noises, it’s real life with nothing perfect.

Together, we explore what it looks like to step outside conventional paths and build a life rooted in freedom, creativity, and nervous system awareness.

In this nomestia episode we discuss dates growing on trees and what Xanthe found in a date. How we ended up in a garage in the desert. Going to a Hammam with children.

We share a real-time diary of our life in the van as a family living van life with children while navigating homeschooling, slow travel, and nervous-system-led living.

Rather than polished highlight reels, these episodes capture the honest rhythm of our current family van life in Europe where learning, parenting, travel, creativity, and work all blend together.

We talk about what homeschooling on the road actually looks like day to day, how our children learn through real-world experiences, and the challenges and freedom that come with full-time van life as a family.

In these nomestia diaries we share:

What our current van life routine looks like

How homeschooling while travelling works for us

The realities of raising three children in a van

Slow travel, nervous system living, and stepping away from conventional life

The emotional and practical sides of choosing family van life and location independence

If you’re curious about van life with children, homeschooling while travelling, or creating a freedom-based family lifestyle. This podcast shares the unfiltered journey: the beauty, the chaos, and everything in between.
