Next stop the Gobi Gallop!
The Gobi Gallop seems to me to be just the right way to combine three things that are important to me: horses; travel/learning about the world; and helping people. I’m a lifelong horsewoman, adore the beautiful beasts, and have begun over the last few years to fall in love with endurance riding. I grew up traveling, enjoy the adventure of being in parts of the world that are vastly different from other places I’ve known, and much prefer being in new places with an objective other than straight-up tourism. When I went to Berlin, it was to knock a chunk off the Berlin wall in 1989 with a bunch of Hungarian friends and relatives. When I went to Indonesia, it was initially to do rainforest research, and then it stretched into almost a decade of working on an integrated health and environmental conservation project in a vulnerable and remote population in southwestern Borneo. So, it’s par for the course that when I go to Mongolia, it will be to ride across the Gobi Desert and to support a project providing aid and education to trash pickers. I think one gets to understand a place and its people much better in such a framework (i.e., with a project or goal of some kind), and what better than doing it from horseback?!
