At Home in the World

“I have an idea.”

This is the story of how a family spent an ordinary school year in an extraordinary way: circumnavigating the earth to see, firsthand, the places they’ve always wanted to explore.

Through lantern festivals in Thailand, three-foot-wide Venetian passageways, a community of strangers in Zimbabwe — and beyond, Tsh Oxenreider unearths the dance between wanderlust and rootedness; how to be both lost and at home in the world.

9 months, 5 backpacks, 4 continents, 30 countries, 3 kids, 1 husband, & a lifetime of lessons about Home.

Tsh published the book after they arrived home, but boots-on-the-ground, she shared photos in real time via Instagram. She no longer posts on Instagram, but she happily shares those original photos here!

About the Author

Tsh’s husband, Kyle, looked at her one evening after the kids had gone to bed and said, “Let’s do this—let’s finally buy the tickets and hit the road.” It was time to embark on a dream they’d been planning for years: to travel around the world with their three kids and discover places new and old. And so, they did. They each strapped on a backpack and headed westbound, first for Asia.

Leaving home taught Tsh more about home than she ever imagined.

Tsh is the author of several books, writer of a popular newsletter, and podcaster. She’s also a travel guide during the summer and a high school teacher during the school year. Her writing has been featured in the Washington Post, CNN, Real Simple magazine, America, and more. After living in several countries and states, she currently lives in a historic small town just outside her hometown of Austin, Texas with her family and eats tacos several times a week.
