Raising Inclusive Global Citizens Through Travel and At-Home Learning
Travel The World In 60 Minutes
In our newest worldschooling educational series, 5-year-old Shyla shares with your children one of the greatest gifts of life, a journey across the continents.
As Seen On
Welcome! I'm Lakshmi.
I was born in India and moved to the US as a young girl. Traveling back to India to visit family each year fueled my love for travel, which grew into a passion to learning about others. I love meeting new people and seeing new places -- the world has so much to offer.
Fast forward to two decades of global corporate experiences and being a mother of two, I love sharing this passion with my children. I believe that teaching children about the world helps them grow into more compassionate, more inclusive, more tolerant citizens of the world.
