Did you know that 4-year-olds are some of the most skilled critical thinkers on Earth?
They ask 100–300 questions every single day.
That is curiosity unsuppressed.
That is the mind working exactly as nature intended.
So how do we protect this superpower?
Simple:
Don’t put them into the system.
No kindergarten or school teacher has the time, space, or freedom to honor thousands of questions from one child, let alone dozens.
Want to amplify this ability even further?
Surround your family with freedom-minded, system-questioning people.
Bitcoiners. Unschoolers. People who think for themselves.
Because who answers your child’s questions shapes how they learn to think.
Curiosity is natural.
Losing it is taught.
At A Place To Be, raising a fiat-proof, deeply confident, question-asking child isn’t something you have to fight for —
it happens naturally when the environment protects their spark.
Be around people who value questions.
And watch your child’s mind stay free.

No explanations. No judgment.
Just kids learning naturally.
And parents building a better future — together.

Where Our Project’s At
At Bitcoin Atlantis 2024, we met Rahim Taghizadegan, Austrian economist and the founder of Citadel Garden — a trustless digital land network giving sovereign families a secure way to co-own land and build decentralized communities.
He offered us a homebase.
We said yes.
A Place To Be is now part of the Citadel Garden ecosystem — a growing network of freedom-aligned locations.
We finished the topography of 90.000m2 and will soon survey another 200.000m2, the areas that we're allowed to build on, are currently editing the design of the village and plan to submit plans to the municipality mid October 2025.
Our plot of land is over 500.000m2 big and stunningly beautiful!
You HAVE to come and see it...
While we wait for permits, we open the space in its raw form — offering:
bom fire
tent and gathering spots
big trampoline
wood and tools to build and mess around
a place to co-create and connect as we grow

Us at work – it’s not always easy being an unschooling parent and not everybody can do it…
…but somebody’s gotta lie on the beach, drink in the sunshine, and make sure the kids are having the time of their lives 😎🌴📚
Jokes aside…
It means blending family, life, and learning into one flow. Sometimes it looks like sunshine and sand, sometimes like deep conversations or tears (like before leaving to come to the beach)
The responsibility is full-time and the rewards are long-term. It’s not always the easy path, but it’s the path that keeps us close, free, and true to ourselves. 🌊☀️

Bitcoin = decentralized money
Unschooling = decentralized education
Sending kids to school?
👉 Still plugged into the system.
👉 Outsourcing parenting.
👉 Limiting their freedom.
👉 Teaching fiat thinking.
Ask why.
Unschooling is easy and fun when you have a community:

Another fun day of muscle work to clean our land and then a well-deserved Espatada BBQ.
On Monday a company will start clearing the roads and pathways to create access to the clearings where we’ll build houses and other structures for our unschooling neighborhood 😎🙌🏽🤩🫶🏼
