Felt the most beautiful on my wedding day – thanks to my glam squad! I got to design the gown from scratch with the wonderful people from The Gown Warehouse.

Upon the suggestion of our dear friend RRILEY, we handwrote letters to each other and read them out to each other before the wedding. We were not allowed to see each other until I walk down the aisle, so we did this back to back, and then I returned to the room as she headed […] The post The Wedding – Letter Reading first appeared on Cheryl Tay ..read more

It took me five years to find the courage to do a race of this magnitude, because I was traumatised by my first full distance race at Ironman Langkawi 2018.

This race was postponed from April 2020 when the pandemic hit and it’s the first time that Desaru is hosting an Ironman 70.3 event. There is the 113 Desaru (same distance as 70.3) and I’ve heard that it’s a tough course, but I didn’t know what to expect and I guess you can say that […] The post Ironman 70.3 Desaru 2022 first appeared on Cheryl Tay ..read more

We did a free-and-easy drive-yourself trip around Catalonia mostly, covering Barcelona, Girona, Tarragona, Lleida, Costa Brava, the Pyrenees mountains. This is not the “smoothest” driving route because we had to do a bit of a detour as there was some mega Carnival (think Mardi Gras and massive crowds dancing in the streets in costumes) happening […] The post Our Spain itinerary first appeared on Cheryl Tay ..read more
