Living & Riding in Kyrgyzstan
10/20/21 • 76 min
Today we virtually visit a very special country in Central Asia: Kyrgyzstan. Situated at the crossroads of the Silk Road and squeezed between ancient empires, it boasts of a fascinating horse culture. Helene from France has made Kyrgyzstan her home and has lived there for more than 20 years, owning around 50 horses. She helped Ashley and her partner organise a 3-month ride across the country. Both women are joining me in today's podcast episode to talk about their experiences of living and riding in Kyrgyzstan.

Adventuresses-Catching Up
Hello Adventuresses, Heather and Ute took over the podcast to share with you a catch-up episode on all the fun things they have going on. Being an adventuress has many hats! For example, Ute has been acting as a midwife these past few weeks, while her mares have been in foaling season. A new little colt arrived shortly after we recorded this episode. I have also kept busy with planning a riding adventure and opening a new travel agency. Check out EQA # 196 catching up with the adventuresses.
