Worldschooling Podcast Episode Title: Episode 20: What Worldschooling Packing Essentials Do We Need?

Hosts: Astrid & Clint, creators of The Wandering Daughter

Episode Summary: In this episode of Worldschooling Q&A, Astrid and Clint answer a question every traveling family eventually faces: what packing essentials do we really need for long-term worldschooling travel?

Drawing from more than four years of full-time travel across 18+ countries and six continents, they share how their packing philosophy has evolved toward minimalism, sustainability, and practicality—without sacrificing comfort or mental well-being. They discuss how most items can be purchased locally, why quality matters for frequently used gear, and how to avoid overpacking out of fear.

Astrid and Clint walk through the systems that keep them organized on the road, including capsule wardrobes, packing cubes, and reusable storage solutions. They also highlight often-overlooked safety and health items they never travel without, such as carbon monoxide detectors and water purification bottles, along with the tech gear that supports work, learning, and downtime as a traveling family.

If you’re preparing for long-term travel, slow travel, or full-time worldschooling, this episode will help you pack smarter, lighter, and with more intention—while still leaving room for the items that bring joy to your family’s journey.
