Julia, Anton and their two daughters are from India (Julia gave birth to both girls at home, and we wrote regarding the experience of the family) returned to Krasnoyarsk in March 2021. They flew home with the thought that they were returning for a short time, they would think regarding where to spend the winter. Initially, they planned to fly to some Asian country, but they were afraid to get stuck in quarantine once more and began to look for a place where there would be no strict anti-COVID restrictions.
– Initially, we considered Thailand, but following reading their news, we did not risk it. Two new deaths from covid make the whole news agenda there [и была опасность, что страна уйдет на карантин]. This, for a moment, is the summer of 2021, when the whole world stops paying attention to the coronavirus altogether. Moreover, over the past 7-8 years, it has become more and more difficult with visas, very strict rules for moving from state to state, from island to island. We understood that we would face bureaucracy. And our choice fell on Mexico. At that time there were no restrictions in the country. Plus, you don’t need a visa here, you only get an entry permit, and under good circumstances, it also gives you the right to stay in the country for up to six months, the Krasnoyarsk woman explains.
