He was, he was one of those horses that are one in a million, well to me any way ;)

That's sounds like a lot of fun - less pressure for you too so you can just enjoy the experience. Are you hoping to compete in the future (after you de-stress your horse)? I'm lucky I get to ride my mom's horse, he's really good natured. I've had some scary experiences with high strung horses before though where they try desperately to throw me off. Hopefully yours isn't like that - and if he is, I'm sure he won't be for long :)

Have you travelled out of Norway at all? I went all around Europe last year but didn't make it to Norway unfortunately. One of my friends stayed there for a year though and said it was beautiful!

Awww sounds like that horse is a handful - I'm impressed you're even brave enough to go on! But I guess that's a good start and once you get to know each other a bit better I'm sure she'll behave.

You're so lucky that you're so close to all those fabulous countries!

Last year I spent a lot of my time in London (I love the theater so I saw tons of plays). I also went to Amsterdam, Paris, Nice, Brussels, Dublin, Edinburgh, Tenerife, and Berlin. And in the past I have traveled to Italy. I actually just returned home from a two week trip to Greece! It was absolutely spectacular - each island is so different and there is so much to see, I could have spent another month there! Have you ever been?
