Busy busy busy

12Feb11

I have been so busy lately with getting all the horses ready for the upcoming competition season. I am really looking forward to being able to get my first taste at competing in a different country, I do need to make sure my German is a bit better so that I can understand what is going on – especially in the Young Horse tests! It is all very exciting and it is something that I have dreamed of being able to do since I was a little girl.

I am just enjoying my life here so much, being paid to ride lovely dressage horses all day every day, I wouldn’t trade it for all the money in the world. We have some new members to the Charlottenhof team starting this week, another two riders and a groom so now the horses will all be able to get a lot more attention which I have just been unable to give them – with 18 horses to work each day, well, there are only so many hours in the day!

When the winter has left us, we are also planning on building some small paddocks near the main barn so that the sport horses each have a chance to get outside each day. I think this is just fantastic and I am sure the horses will think the same.

I mentioned in a previous post that the Australian photographer, Kelly Bauer, came to visit a few weeks ago. She also wrote an article about my experiences here in Germany as well as in Portugal, and that has now be published on the Cyberhorse Virtual Equestrian website:

That’s about all for now, I am ready to crash into bed, ready for another day tomorrow!
