Come join me on Substack

I began A Place on A Hill in 2018. We were still fairly new to unschooling and living in an old house on a hill about half an hour north of Barcelona. I was healing from a burnout of 25 years of striving for success, whilst also deeply immersed in my own deschooling and in need of a place to process and share everything. This blog became a wonderful companion for me and has allowed me to connect with many other people on similar journeys. As the years have gone by, my trust in all of this has deepened and grown, and my own deschooling (although never done!) has become a softer and gentler journey. The children I was observing in their reading and their Minecraft playing are so much older now, but those early days of spaciousness, freedom and connection seem so much a part of who they are today.

I’ve made the choice to move my writing now to Substack, so I hope you will join me over there. A Place on a Hill will still be here if you ever want to look through the archives and see if there’s something that resonates with you. You can also subscribe to my weekly newsletter at www.esther-jones.com.

Thank you and I hope we stay connected,

Esther
