- Hi,
- my name is Hanna Kostama and I live just outside of Helsinki, Finland.
- Riding is very popular in Finland. In the winter season here it is
- sometimes a bit rough because of the cold. The ground is also often
- too icy. But the beuty of the nature under the snow cover is
- unbelievable and makes trail riding even more fun.
-
- My own Equestrian Bio just turned awfully sad today as I had to sell
- my lovely horse Aqua, a 12-years old Danish dressage gelding.
- I had been riding for some 20 years when I finally bought a horse of
- my own. I enjoyed him very much. But now I am about to start a traveling
- job, so I will not be having enough time for a good care of a horse
- (plus a family of a husband, a 3-year-old son and a dog). It was quite
- easy to find a nice new owner for Aqua because of his cutiness - in the
- same time I was sad it went so soon. The happy years with him passed too
- quickly and then suddenly as he is about to move away, it seems there will
- be just emptiness.
- -
- Did you ever go through this? How did you manage it?
-
- Hanna
