Navigating New Horizons - From India to Central America

WELCOME
Welcome to The Colour Pixie!
Hey there! I’m Mira, an Indian parent on a wild adventure—raising two kids and a dog while exploring the vibrant streets of Mexico. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to swap Indian traffic jams for taco stands, or how to find the best masala chai in the land of chili and lime, you’re in the right place!
Moving from India to Mexico has been a rollercoaster of emotions—exciting, overwhelming, and full of "Wait… what?!" moments. From figuring out kid-friendly places to tackling grocery runs with my broken Spanish (and a lot of hand gestures), I share real-life stories, practical tips, and everything I wish I knew before making this big move.
The
Big Move
Initial preparations, logistical aspects like visa processes, shipping belongings, and making the long journey with kids and a large dog.
