“I thought you were moving to India!?”
In case you missed it, I shared recently that my husband, son and I are moving to India for three months in November. 🇮🇳
And yes, I have always said three months. But I also know that “WE’RE MOVING TO INDIA” makes for a pretty good hook. 😂
Of course, moving permanently is different to spending an extended period somewhere.
But I also don’t want to minimise what we’re doing.
For all intents and purposes, we are moving.
We’re packing up our home because we’ll be renting it out.
We’re making arrangements for our cat and our car.
My husband has organised leave from work. We’re navigating school, work, travel and all the logistics that come with relocating your family to another country.
Three months is still a BIG adventure.
And quite frankly, I think it’s pretty courageous too.
Maybe it’s the first step towards living in India for longer. Maybe somewhere else. Maybe we’ll come home after three months and be perfectly happy with that.
Who knows?
There’s another reason I keep saying we’re moving…
India feels like home to me.
I’ve visited 18 times. I’ve spent extended periods there of up to 2 months. I have friends who don’t say, “Come to my house for tea.” They say, “Come home.”
When I arrive at my favourite hotel in Delhi, The Imperial, they say, “Welcome home.”
And that’s genuinely how it feels.
So yes, we’re moving to India.
At this stage, it’s for three months.
But who knows what this chapter might open up for us?
And if India has been calling you too, come and visit!
I partner with travel company Indus Bound to plan beautiful, bespoke luxury travel across India, Nepal, Bhutan and Sri Lanka.
Who knows… maybe I’ll see you there 🙏
