Summing up!

I can start with telling you that Baltazar has moved to Denmark. He was moved in May. The trip from Sweden to Denmark was a hell. He was quite stressed and just before we drove up in the ferry, I saw that he had turned around in the trailer and was about to jump out of the back end. So in the center of the ferry we had to take him out and turn him the right way again. Fortunately, it went fast and without problems. The rest of the trip went well.

He had a hard time the first couple of weeks. None of the horses except Victor had seen so small a horse before. So they were a little hard on him. But now everything is good. Baltazar is a little charmer, so he's now friends with all the horses on the farm. And all the little girls swarm around him. He's probably Flower Farms most popular horse.




It goes well with Victor. Apart from he has got mud fever on all four legs. So all his hair had to be cut of. Wow, it was hard to cut it all of, I love his hair! Worst of all when I had to treat him, he went berserk. Unfortunately he sometimes gets a flashback of his past, so he shuts down completely for me. Although it dosn't hurt when I cut his hair he behaves as if he's going to die!

But despite he was crazy and angry at me in the stable we were still friends out in the paddock, a few hours after he came when I called. Silly Horse!

In Ireland, they put fire to his legs, as they believe it can treat mud fever. Terrible right? So I don't blame him.

Forgotten all about my blog!

It's just way too bad and so embarrassing, I've forgotten all about my blog. My life just runs at full speed, so I can barely keep up! It's in a good way, so I'm not complaining. But my blog has just not been on my mind for a long time. But I'll try to summarizes the best I can. And then I will definitely try to be more active here!


Well I can start with my last internship at Horse-Vision in Sweden. I have only good words about the entire team and their beautiful stable. I worked at 08-14 rest of the time I had free and my spare time I spent on chasing various trainers.

Christofer Dahlgren and Rebecca Dahlgren are the two most amazing people I have ever met. I have never felt so welcome at a foreign place and so far away from home. Though I only was an intern for a week I was treated like a friend. I am extremely impressed by what they have built up together. Their positive attitude and calm way to handle their horses is admirable.

And then of course they have some great trainers connected to their team. There are Therese, Stinelo and Jenny, three amazing women who are extremely talented. I feel I get all sentimental when I write this. I miss them all and their beautiful place. I would recommend every person to take that up to Sweden and get some lessons. No matter what level you are on, which horse you come with, Horse-Vision are always open and extremely accommodating.

Despite the fact I didn't ride or had my own horse with me, I still learned extremely much. And it gave a lot of inspiration to my own training.

In internship at Maria D Cheung

Right now I'm working at Maria D Cheung's stable. She wanted me to take Giga with me, so I could get some training with her. I have only been there for two days now but i already love it. The work is fun and it's really nice that she wants to train me and Giga, especially because I'm more or less a beginner when it comes to Academic Art Of Riding. I'm sure this week is going to be really educational and it will give me a good push forward in my training of Giga.

Internship period P.R.E. stable

Hello everyone

I'm at the moment in internship the next 3 weeks. It's nice having a break from school. I enjoy it so much.

Last week I was at a P.R.E. stable. The place is called Korsmosegaard. It was a really exciting and educational week. I was allowed to handle and ride their stallions. I got to ride their horses almost everyday. And I must say after that week I have no doubt about I'll some day buy such a Spanish beauty. I fell in love with their oldest stallion Gurrer, a mare called Fumaria and a little colt named Rapido. The last two are for sale, sigh! It was pretty hard when the owner tried to sell them to an extremely fine price. If only I was rich!

This is a stallion called Remero, he's only 6 years. But he's just the sweets thing.

Baltazar today

Here are some pictures from today. Since Baltazar still lives in Sweden, I haven't got the time to train him in any new tricks. So it's pictures of the same old tricks.

He's just such a sweetheart. I'm looking forward to getting him to DK. He needs more love and attention!

I found my new BIG love!

Today my mom and I drove by the riding school I bought Baltazar. Here I saw my new BIG love. A big beautiful Shire stallion. He came trotting when I called. It all reminded me of some bad Disney movie. He stood a long time and smelled my hair and I got a lot of kisses until a angry horse chased him off.

One eye was green / blue. So unique. I am completely lost! I wish I could afford such a beauty.

Beautiful Aspects
