Oaxaca, Mexico | June 2022

Come join us in the Oaxaca, for a fun-filled and community-centered worldschooling gathering June 19-26, 2022.

Our pop-ups provide a super casual, budget-friendly opportunity to gather, connect with other worldschoolers, share your insights, instill new friendships, learn about the local area, and immerse in a friendly, accepting mobile community.

We've cherry-picked the best low- or no-cost activities that highlight local nature, arts, history, food, and culture... but you'll also have plenty of time to relax, get to know each other and even stray from the itinerary to add activities that cater to the group's interests (we provide plenty of supplemental ideas to tailor your experience).

Pop in for a few days or the full week. Join as many activities as you'd like. It's up to you! We would love to have you come and simply Hang Out with like-minded families while we dive in and explore the local offerings.

Our itinerary will include activities such as the following:

*Templo de Santo Domingo de Guzman

LODGING & NEIGHBORHOODS:

Our activities will be spread out over the city, but if you want the most centralized and convenient neighborhood we recommend staying in the Centro near Templo Santa Domingo or Teatro Macedonio Alcalá. However, other neighborhoods are also acceptable because Oaxaca is well connected with taxis and collectivos (Note: Uber does not operate in Oaxaca). The host family is staying ~5km northwest of the Centro in the Nuevo Mexico neighborhood.

Oaxaca has low crime rates for being a large city, but select a neighborhood known to be safe (details in the Facebook group).

MEET YOUR HOST:

Michael and his family will be hosting this event. Michael’s family is currently based out of San Antonio after traveling for nearly a decade, visiting and/or living in 31 countries along the way. Two of their children will join in this pop-up (ages 9 and 18 months). Favorite family destinations include Croatia, Germany, France, Italy, and Ireland, though Michael also loves Georgia, Romania, and Hawaii. Michael is also a huge Disney nerd.
