About our guest:
Allyson Beverly is a military spouse, super mom to a bustling troop of six, and an accidental travel schooling pioneer. When life in the military nudged the Beverly clan to hit the road, Allyson was faced with fear of the unknown. But travel schooling brought unexpected joys and a stronger faith as she watched her kids flourish with each new adventure. Now hooked on the enriching experiences that travel schooling affords, Allyson has turned this serendipitous journey into a passionate lifestyle by choice, not chance. With stamps from 23 countries and visits to 27 states in their family passport, the Beverlys' odyssey is a testament to the educational wonders beyond the classroom walls. Her unique approach combines traveling and Charlotte Mason's educational philosophies, breathing life into every lesson with the world as their classroom.
