nomestia is a heart-led rebellion. A living diary of living in a system we are struggling to navigate, worldschooling, home education, and how we attempt to live an embodied family life. We explore what it means to tend to ourselves as human beings in this world, raise children outside of conventional systems while tending everyone's nervous system/ the body. This is not escape - it is a return: to breath, to slowness, to presence through long format podcast episodes. Created by Naomi and Alistair Gale, nomestia shares the real-time experience of travelling, home education, and reimagining what family life could be when we pause for a moment to reflect on how we could shape our lives in today's system. We are currently living in a van travelling Europe and Africa. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Ikea, Police-Patatas, Ants

    It's a diaries episode where we begin talking about park-ups and the specific rules about 'parking' vs 'camping' in Spain and what that meant for four weeks of washing that needed to dry. We move onto chatting about a Spanish IKEA and why we let the children run loose in big shops. Keeping cool and letting off steam at the same time. Can IKEA be actually relaxing? In our Sevilla trip, Xanthe attended a dance lesson which got us talking about prodigy child vs pushy parent. When does encouragement become pushing? Sparked this conversation further when we talk about meeting a Romanian family with 15 year old signed up to a La Liga (like Premier League) football club. We end with ants in the van and how Paloma found the ant stuff we needed while "lost" in a Leroy. 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. nomestia explores: family van life • homeschooling • nervous system living • slow travel • parenting outside the mainstream • creative family life • location-independent living   Join the field: https://naomigale.myflodesk.com/thefield Substack: https://nomestia.substack.com/ Hosted on Acast.

    We ARE Chasing Waterfalls, Sunday Hours, Xanthe's Journey

    In this episode, we discuss chasing water in every sense of the word while we are here in Spain. We move on to talking about supermarket opening hours and what Sunday hours are, anyway? We end with a share on holding our child as she navigates this potentially life-changing journey, and what it means to be her parents within this.

    Bislama Morocco, Hello Andulusia, Off the Wagon and Dodgy Doors

    This week we said goodbye to Morocco after nearly five months travelling there. In our final days we needed a garage after being trapped in the van (kind of), reflected on thong bikinis in a Muslim country versus Spanish beach vibes. Then we discuss sobriety, the aisles of Lidl and why Ali almost keeled over on our ferry trip over.

    Donuts, Crocodiles, A challenging scene

    (NB there is a Trigger Warning on this post in the final story). This episode explores our final days in Morocco, where we will go next and why we feel ready to move on. We discuss CrocoPark in Agadir and our thoughts on visiting a Crocodile Zoo. We move swiftly on to chat about donuts- and not the ones you eat. Then we end with (NB Trigger Warning) what we all ended up witnessing on the beach and how we tended to this as parents.

    Can you raise children and have freedom?

    Can you raise children and have freedom? In response to the many questions we have had about how we are doing what we are doing with three children in tow. Let's discuss what home educating looks like in this world. This podcast is, as always, aimed at all looking to move away from the script. It’s especially for anyone thinking of having children one day and wondering whether freedom can exist. Those interested in home educating and anyone else wanting to explore more chat on freedom and children. Jargon busting, e.g., unschooling, home schooling, home education. Misconceptions about home education worldwide and UK-specific residency requirements. Community and socialisation plus 'homeschooling hubs'. Recent UK law changes surrounding home education. Ending on- is pulling your children out of school the right thing to do? Also featuring, ASMR from Helen the cat.
