Motherhood abroad doesn’t look like I imagined…
It looks like building a home while still learning how to feel at home.
It looks like raising a child while quietly rebuilding yourself in the background.
Some days everything feels soft and beautiful…
and other days I realise I’m navigating identity, language, motherhood and change all at once.
But I’ve learned something important:
I don’t need everything to be perfect to create beauty.
I just need intention.
So I started turning my everyday life into something grounding, my home, my routines, my art, my motherhood.
I’m a Mexican mother living in the UK,
and I’m learning how to build a life that feels like mine… even in the in between.
If you’re living abroad and raising a family at the same time, I see you. 🤍
Where are you reading from?
