Life Abroad in Mixed Marriage / Interracial family
As you know, my son is half-Indian and half-Polish (well, he is British in reality :P). He is a mixed child and his personality totally reflects that. He has got a lof of Polish habits, but his hot Indian blood tries the best to be the most visible 🙂 Well, even his British side fights hard to be there noticeable 😛 Tough life 😛

Expats are North Americans, Europeans and Australians, while Asians, Middle Easterns, Africans and South Americans are mostly considered as immigrants. A highly educated PhD academic from India will be a highly qualified immigrant in Europe whereas a German worker (bartender) or a British retired person in Thailand will be always regarded as expats.
Do you agree with it?
Imagine, you have never been to India before. You are a foreigner, possibly European/American/Australian. You have just landed at one of the airports in India. You are quite tired after a lengthy journey, but excited and ready for a holiday or a business trip. After walking quite a long distance you get stuck in a queue to passport control counter. You feel like half of the world wants to enter India today and everybody chose the same port of entry like you. Anyways, after a while you get the stamp in your passport.

I’ve just dropped my mum off at the airport. It looked like a casual drop off. I do it quite often in the year. Going to airport and saying bye to my mum is like a monthly trip to Smyths (toy shop)- nothing really special. Luckily, my mum visits us few times a year, plus sometimes my dad joins her. Besides that, my mum-in-law flies whenever she can. Overall, welcomes and goodbyes at the airport aren’t extraordinary or deeply emotional for us. I’m really happy we feel like that because it means our goodbye is never for long 🙂 However, something has happened today…

Halloween is always celebrated on the 31st of October- one day before All Saints’ Day (All Hallows’ Day). People of all ages dress up in scary/fancy/funny costumes and most of them attend various parties.
All Saints’ Day on the 1st of November is annual public holiday in Poland. Poles go to cemeteries, visit graves of their deceased family members and friends, lay flowers, light candles and pray for the dead.
