Well, the first thing you will notice if you attend this festival is

around the world and, if you are lucky, you can meet people
from different nationalities and make new friends.
In short, I just love going to this festival every year. It makes

Listening scripts
Exercise 1
Brian: Hey Dan, what’s up? What are you doing with your smartphone?
Dan: Hi! I’m watching this great YouTuber’s videos, they’re hilarious!
Brian: Let me see! Ahahah so funny! I was going to check my favourite social media platform, Instagram, but there’s no wi-fi here at the café right
now. Do you know what happened?
Dan: I’m not sure, but the lady said they are trying to fix it. But don’t worry, I have my own tablet with internet connection, we can use it.
Brian: Great! I wanted to show you this famous influencer I’ve been following on Instagram lately. He shares very interesting tips about the video
games we love and he also posts useful tutorials. Do you want to see them?
Dan: Let’s do it! We can use my earphones… That’s really nice, we can learn a lot from these videos. There is also a blogger who posts similar tips
and new information about video games, I’ll show you.
Brian: Your earphones are nice, but you have to try my new earbuds. They offer six hours of listening time and I can use them anywhere I want.
Dan: Wow, that’s amazing. You have so many gadgets, I wish I could afford some of those.
Brian: Don’t worry. You can use mine whenever you need them. Right now, I’m waiting for my laptop to be repaired. The computer technician said it
should be ready next Monday.
Dan: Oh, sorry to hear that. Hope they can solve the problem. We have that science project to finish, I can lend you my laptop if you need it.
Brian: Thanks, but I think I am able to do it using my tablet. Let’s watch some TikToks!
Dan: Good idea! I always have fun watching those videos.

Exercise 2
a. My name is Vicky and I’m taking part in an eTwinning programme. It’s a great opportunity for all the teachers and students at my school. We can
communicate and develop projects with schools from other European countries, which helps us improve our intercultural skills. I really feel part of a
big European learning community!
b. I’m Ryan and I’m participating in an Erasmus+ programme at my school. This is a European programme that gives us the opportunity to travel to
other countries and experience school life there for a few days. I’ve just returned from France and it really was a life-changing experience.
c. Hi! I’m Rachel and I’m planning a trip to Italy. This will be my first experience in a holiday programme. My parents think it will help me improve my
social skills. I’ll need lots of important documents, such as my European Health Insurance Card in case I get sick. I’m nervous, but I believe it will be
an exciting experience for me.
d. My name is Vanessa and I’m 16 years old. I’m staying with a host family in Scotland right now. They are all very friendly and they are trying to give
me the best cultural experience possible. Yesterday, they helped me buy some souvenirs for my friends and family and we visited the city centre. I
will miss them a lot!
e. I’m Tiago and I’m from Portugal. At my school, we have a very interesting project. Our English teacher found us some e-friends with whom we
have been communicating online. They are all from England, which helps us develop our communication skills in English. We’ve created a WhatsApp
group with them, but maybe one day we can all meet in person.

Digital Nomad Families and Worldschoolers

Travelling the world as one happy family is an experience that’s hard to beat 1. You can explore
the world, discover new and fascinating cultures, meet people you otherwise wouldn’t, and savour
that sweet taste of boundless2 freedom.
Difference between digital nomads and worldschoolers
At first glance, these two approaches to travelling the world as location-independent workers
are pretty similar. Both utilise the internet to do their work, both have their close family with them,
and both of them can move either month to month or year to year depending on their preferences.
But there is a crucial difference in motivation between these two approaches. Digital nomad
families tend to use well-established educational institutions for their kids, like online schools and
tutors. Their focus is on travel and freedom, networking, and new experiences.
Worldschoolers, however, see the experience of location-independent work as first and
foremost an opportunity for their kids to learn and grow. They don’t see moving from country to
country as an obstacle to their kids’ education but as a key asset. They employ a number of
techniques, tutors, online platforms, and international worldschooling projects to provide their kids
with a unique educational experience that aims to broaden3 their horizons.
How to become a digital nomad or a worldschooler
The most important thing you need to do is to guarantee a good education even as you travel
the world. There are tons of accredited online institutions around the world which accept location-
independent students and which mimic traditional school environments. Just be aware that you
might need to take a test that proves your education level once you need to enrol in a university or
even in some high schools.
If digital nomad families are all about providing a familiar environment for children that travel
the world, worldschoolers are anything but that. The process of experiencing the world and its
many different offerings can be a lot. This is why many worldschoolers wait a few years before
setting out on their journey, to make sure their children are curious enough and appreciate the
experience. It’s a bit like homeschooling, but instead of learning from books, you learn from the
world and from one another.
