Louisa Andrea is a retreat host, educator, and worldschooling advocate based in Egypt. She specializes in creating transformative experiences for families and teens, blending education, conservation, and cultural immersion on Egypt's Red Sea coast while drawing on her mindfulness, spiritual coaching, and energy work background.
In this episode, we talk with Louisa Andrea about her move from the UK and Cyprus to Egypt, where she has built a life focused on education and adventure for families and world schoolers. Luisa co-leads community adventures and teen retreats, blending learning with hands-on experiences like conservation with Turtle Watch and cross-cultural exchanges with the local Ababda Bedouin community.
We also discuss the practical challenges of balancing personal aspirations with the evolving needs of children, mainly through homeschooling and unschooling. Luisa shares her journey of adapting her approach to education as her teenage son’s needs change, and we talk about the importance of giving children the freedom to explore their own paths.
Toward the end, we touch on future plans, including a shared interest in solar eclipses, with a focus on the upcoming event in Egypt in 2027. This episode provides practical insights into worldschooling, family life, and creating educational opportunities outside traditional systems.
