Beautiful Golden Horse

#1116. All the Pretty Horses, April, 2017. The year is 1949. A young Texan named John Grady Cole is without a home after his mother sells the ranch where he has spent his entire life. Lured to Mexio by the romance of cowboy life and the promise of a fresh start, Cole and his pal Lacey Rawlins in search of work, but soon find themselves in trouble with the law after one of them falls in love with a wealthy rancher's daughter. The adventure tests their resilience and defines their maturity.

This December I finally had the pleasure of attending our first ever Patagonia equestrian meet-up with Hooves. I was with two lovely horse riders from Spain, we were hosted by one of the most welcoming families I’ve ever met, and got to ride horses through the mountains of Patagonia for a whole week. It was honestly one of the best experiences of my life. In this blog post I’ll tell you all about our group, the accommodation, the riding and the horses.
