ABOUT US

Small Hands, Big Journeys
Creative Hands, Open Hearts, Curious Minds

 

We’re Stine, Simen, and Theo Vilje—a small Norwegian family with big dreams and even bigger backpacks. After living in Cambodia for over a year, we now call a mountain cabin in Norway our home base. Here, we continue to homeschool and worldschool our son while planning our next adventure.


No matter where we are—exploring temples in Southeast Asia or hiking through Norwegian forests—we stay curious, connected, and committed to meaningful learning. Our lives revolve around Waldorf-inspired education, child development, travel, and creative collaboration.


We believe in making a positive impact—through consulting, coaching, and building community. In time, we hope to create a physical space where traveling families can connect, rest, and grow together.
