I am a digital entrepreneur and social media content creator in the equestrian travel world.  I am the founder of @worldonhorseback , one of the largest equestrian tourism online presence, with over 200,000 followers on all social media platforms combined (Instagram, Facebook and Tiktok).

Obsessed with traveling and seeking new exciting riding destinations, I have always been one to believe that discovering a country on horseback gives you a unique perspective and insights into its culture. With over 40 countries visited, 20 of which on horseback, I am on a constant quest for new riding and outdoors adventures – and my mission is to share with you some of my favorite spots around the world!

I hope this website inspires you to travel, ride, enjoy life… and perhaps even join one of my WoH special retreats!
