I started riding when I was 4 years old and spent all my time in the stable. i got my first horse when I was 14 and my second horse when I was 17, the best moments of my life. I´ve spent every second and every breath in the stable since then. Its always been my safe place and I love the bond you make with those amazing animals. I have good experience when it comes to taking care of horses, grooming, first aid, riding. I know what it´s like to have the responsibility of taking care of not only my horses but also a whole stable. I love horses with all my heart and I've dedicated my life to them. learning how to understand them in the best way possible and be able to build as strong bond as possible. You are a team, you and your horse and I think it`s really important to learnt and understand their perspective.
