We’re an Unschooling Neighborhood for Families Who Fiat-Proof Their Kids Schools teach fiat thinking. We do something different. Unschooling is decentralized education — and that's what we live and breathe. This is what happens when you're surrounded by families on the same path: No explanations. No judgment. Just kids learning naturally. And parents building a better future — together. Join us at A Place To Be — Madeira A freedom-first, family-centered community aligned with nature, sovereignty, and Bitcoin values.

He offered us a homebase. We said yes. A Place To Be is now part of the Citadel Garden ecosystem — a growing network of freedom-aligned locations. We finished the topography of 90.000m2 and will soon survey another 200.000m2, the areas that we're allowed to build on, are currently editing the design of the village and plan to submit plans to the municipality mid October 2025. Our plot of land is over 500.000m2 big and stunningly beautiful! You HAVE to come and see it... While we wait for permits, we open the space in its raw form — offering: bom fire tent and gathering spots big trampoline wood and tools to build and mess around a place to co-create and connect as we grow To be up-to-date with our progress visit https://www.aplacetobe.me/updates We’re building something that matters and accept Bitcoin Contributions.

Thanks Paul 😊🙌🏼🫶🏼

Dear friends, I’m so proud (and seriously excited) to share something very close to my heart: my husband has just published his book, Glitch - The Hidden Code Running Your Life (And How To Debug It) . I believe this is the book the world so desperately needs. It’s written for every single one of us who has been born and raised within this society — caught up in its patterns, pressures, and noise. And if you’re a parent, Glitch will speak to you on an even deeper level. Because doing our own inner work is the number one thing that allows us to: * be truly present with our children * give them real freedom * act with love instead of fear * create peace and connection in our homes * and ultimately, live the life we dream of alongside them At home and at , Rob and I live this every single day. We’re constantly learning, unlearning, and finding new ways to bring more calm, joy, and authenticity into our relationships. What I love about Glitch is that it isn’t theory. It’s Rob’s own self-taught, self-discovered path — a way to untangle the conditioning we’ve all grown up with and find a peace of mind that changes everything:  how we parent, how we love, how we live. I’m so excited to finally share this with you!

Why are my kids not in school? Because they don’t have time for it… here’s why:

You’re absolutely welcome here 😊🫶🏼

Preparing my questions for the forest and nature conservation institute in Madeira to find out how to get horses, ponies, donkeys, cows and goats onto our land 😊🙌🏼🫶🏼

Wu wei parenting — doing without doing. Trusting our kids, stepping back, and letting them grow through their own choices. This is the heart of our unschooling project A Place To Be in Madeira — a community and soon to be neighborhood for families who want to raise children in freedom, nature, and connection. Curious?

Thanks for getting the word out… as with so many other things in our fiat society, people have forgotten to trust nature and their bodies and follow ‘expert’ advice instead… I’ve been breastfeeding for almost 9 years now, my youngest who is 5 and a half is slowly stopping (gently weaning me 😅) 🫶🏼

What exactly was the problem with that?

WE did it 😉

My husband has his online business while I’m a full-time mom. Bitcoin also gives us the freedom to not have to work that much. There are many options and ways - where there’s a will, there’s a way 😇🫶🏼

Now that’s what I call a compliment 😎😇🙌🏼🫶🏼
