My Husband's Story

I thought today I would share the story of my husband and how we came to get together <3

As should be clear from my wedding photos and posts, my husband Yo is Thai.

Yo was born in Chiang Mai, Thailand was the youngest of 4 brothers and sisters.

I am not sure what age, but when he was quite young, he witnessed his father die in a brutal attack and then his mother was in and out of jail for drug abuse and selling a daughter to prostitution twice.

When he was about 3 or 4, he and his older siblings (Nit, Noy and Ja Fu) were taken from Chiang Mai to a children's home in Banklang, Phetchabun. The people that brought him to Banklang were Australians and the husband and son were two of Yo's best men in our wedding. 

Yo lived at the children's home most of his life and went on to work at the childrens life until late 2014. As you know, Yo and I met when we went on a missions trip to his orphanage in 2013.

We took him to Australia January-April of this year and were married in February of this year.

We are now happily married for 6 months so far and living in Khao Kho, Thailand, where I am teaching and he is the groundsman at the same school.

Today, his mother and brother still have issues on and off with drugs and are not christians. I praise God that my husband is a strong christian who went down the right path <3

REVIEW- Coral Colours Loose Translucent Powder

Time for my first ever makeup review! Coral Colours is an often overlooked Australian makeup brand. I don't hear much about them but I have tried a mascara, blush, lip gloss and powder from them and they are awesome products. This powder is my holy grail setting powders for my foundation and concealer. I really do not like using powders with colour in them because I find they make my face look cakey no matter how little amount of product I use. But I think I am going to start using colour powders because tragically, this powder and my ELF translucent powder are almost empty and both these brands are not available in Thailand :( This powder is an amazing powder. I can use as much or as little as I want and it does not make my makeup look cakey. Even on days when I don't use a primer, translucent powder, especially this one still makes my makeup last all day! And this is in hot, Thailand climate! Rating- 10/10 Love the stuff! And as soon as I could, I would...

Blogger Pain!

So much that I can say on here about my life and my thoughts on cross cultural marriage but I just can't get the words out. Augh! lol. Get with it Rachel! Blogging makes me happy but the writer's block does not. 

Mr and Mrs Chadu's Tasmanian Honeymoon

Married for 2 months so far! Woohoo! Took my new husband to my home state, beautiful Tasmania, for our honeymoon! Loving it apart from a certain male complaining about the cold :P But Tasmania is his love. I think his wife may be taking a back seat to Tasmania :) Loving catching up with friends and family, seeing the beautiful scenery and eating the beautiful Tasmanian food :) Hope this never ends!
