Raising a little Indian explorer, far from home.

Honest parenting and real toddler travel for Indian families doing it without the village. Guides, checklists and the stuff nobody tells you.

Start here. It’s free.

The exact list we use for every trip: cabin bag, snacks, sleep, medicines, documents and the things you only remember at the airport.

Everything we wish we’d known before the first flight

Hi, we’re Aruna and Anand.

We’re an Indian couple raising our little explorer abroad, thousands of kilometres from both our mothers.

Every piece of advice we got came with a “they said”. We tried most of it, kept what worked, and started sharing the rest, the real version.

These guides are what we’d hand to friends who just landed in a new country with a baby and no idea where to start.
