Hi, everyone,
You have probably heard about the flooding in Central Europe and been worried. We were too, and disappointed because Prague, the next stop on our journey, is partially underwater. The zoo was even evacuated! (I wonder where exactly zoo animals go when they evacuate…) As you can imagine, we will not be going to Prague after all and are trying to figure out an alternate plan so we don’t lose too much money. Will keep you posted, but we are safe. Berlin is not flooded, only disappointing (not very beautiful and under construction and a little rainy).Love you all, pray that we still have a good trip,
Melia
Reschool Yourself is a year-long project in self-education and empowerment. This fall, to understand how school shaped my identity, and to reconnect with my imagination and intuition, I'm returning to my childhood classrooms week by week. In the spring, in order to become as self-sufficient as possible, I'll pursue learning opportunities in the U.S. and abroad. Throughout the year, I'll share my transformative experiences of "reschooling" through this website, in the hopes that readers of all ages will exchange their own.
