Parenting in Italy vs. the U.S. And Why Coming Home Felt So Hard
In this episode of the Roamaroo Podcast, we unpack what it really felt like to come back to the United States after months in Italy, and why the hardest part wasn’t leaving, but returning. This conversation digs deep into the differences between parenting in Italy versus parenting in the United States. We discuss how place shapes identity, what it means to raise kids in a system versus in a culture, and how Italy impacted our parenting style. We share how our experience with Boundless Life challenged our assumptions about education and daily life and we ask a bigger question: is Italy a better fit for our family? 400 Euro Off Boundless Life: https://refer.boundless.life/COLSTO79 Subscribe to the Roamaroo Podcast!

Worldschooling in Italy: Our Boundless Life Journey
In this episode of The Roamaroo Podcast, Scott and Collette explore what worldschooling really looks like on the ground in Italy with Boundless Life, beyond the highlight reel and into daily life. We talk about why we chose Italy, how the Boundless Life program blends structure with curiosity, and what it feels like to watch children learn through culture, community, and real-world experience rather than worksheets alone. This conversation dives into the emotional side of alternative education too: the questions parents wrestle with, the courage it takes to step off the traditional path, and how slowing down can regulate both kids and adults. It’s not about rejecting school as we know it, but expanding the definition of education, and trusting that when children feel safe, connected, and inspired, learning happens everywhere. 400 Euro Off Boundless Life: https://refer.boundless.life/COLSTO79 Book a babysitter in Europe with Tripsitta: https://www.tripsitta.com/partners/roamaroo Subscribe to the Roamaroo Podcast!

The Packing Episode - How Overpacking Makes Everything Harder
In this episode, we explore packing light with kids and why it has reshaped the way our family travels. We return to a moment in Cinque Terre, Italy, when a rogue wave drenched us and every perfectly packed item we carried, a reminder that preparation can only take you so far. The rest requires adaptability. We explain why we are firmly #TeamCarryOn, even with children, and why overpacking is often anxiety disguised as organization. More belongings do not make travel smoother. They increase cognitive load, amplify stress, and quietly pull us out of the present moment. We also reflect on how packing less gives children agency, teaching them responsibility and confidence through choice. Ultimately, this episode reframes packing as a practice in trust. Packing light is not about deprivation. It is about freedom. It is about letting go of control and making room for presence, resilience, and the kind of travel that teaches us who we are.

Do You Want to Vacation or Do You Want to Travel? The Honest Truth About Travel with Kids
In this episode, we tackle the question so many parents think but rarely say out loud: is traveling with kids actually enjoyable, or is it just parenting in a different location? We react to a viral video that struck a nerve and reflect on our earliest trips as parents, the ones marked by fear, second-guessing, and that heavy feeling of doing it all without a safety net. We unpack the difference between vacation and travel, and explore how the loss of the village in modern parenting has made everything feel harder, including leaving home. When you are carrying the logistics, the gear, and the emotional weight alone, even the idea of travel can feel overwhelming. But we believe family travel is not about performing or getting it right. Confidence does not come before the trip, it comes because of it. You do not wait until fear disappears. You move forward with it. The goal is not perfection. It is presence, participation, and building resilient families one imperfect trip at a time. Subscribe to the Roamaroo Podcast! Then Rate 5 Stars on Apple or Spotify.

The Future of Disabled Travel: How TravelMates Is Redefining Accessibility
In this episode of the Roamaroo Podcast, we sit down with Seth Picconi, a former compliance officer who spent 15 years ensuring people followed the laws and regulations that govern global finance—before turning that same precision and purpose toward a more human mission.
