A Mongolian Adventure For Good!

I was always one of those horse crazy girls, spending my time dreaming about horses, drawing horses, and yelling "horse!" every time we drove by one in a field. My family didn't have the means to have land or luxuries, so my adoration was from a distance. We managed to scrape together enough to spend on riding lessons for me for one brief year, when I was 11, and I was in heaven. I learned quickly to ride and jump a retired thoroughbred who always needed to be in front and jump the highest bar. This became too much of a financial strain on my family and I stopped riding. I remained horse crazy, but was certain that riding and time with horses would remain out of reach for me.

Fast forward 20+ years, I was in grad school with two small children when I was gifted a 13 year old Arabian mare (long story). I honestly tried to avoid this gift, what am I going to do with an (insert all of the stereotypes about Arabian horses) mare when I am busy with a PhD and a 3 and 7 year old?! But I did keep her and she opened a new world for me. She taught me about the deep bonds that one can build with horses and about true, bone-deep trust. In her 29th year, I bought a large piece of property for her and a new filly I had rescued, I was finally going to be able to live with my horses! She died peacefully in her sleep a few weeks before we were going to bring her up to the new house, but my dream of living with my horses has blossomed into rescuing young and mature horses, learning how to deal with all kinds of injury and illness, and learning how to train them to be calm, confident, and capable. I have now competed in endurance riding for five years with rescued horses. I love exploring challenging terrain with my brave mares and helping them expand their abilities. And I am incredibly excited about new adventures with like minded people in Mongolia!
