Our French intern has arrived and she's really wasting no time getting to work! She helps out in every way, from training, to barn chores - she does it all.
Gaia Qiugnard is a second year student at LaSalle Beauvais Polytechnic in Beauvais , France, where she is working towards her Master of Science Degree in Agricultural Managment.
And she has a passion for horses! She has been riding since the age of eight and has obtained Galop 6 in the French Federation of Equitation.
As you can see, she really knows how to get Max to step out!
Gaia has also been helping out with lessons and even taught our summer "Mom & Me" how to play "one, two, three, Redlight" in French! The kids loved it!!
She's getting real knowledgeable on barefoot trimming, as she's always helping out when Joanna, our holistic horse person comes around.
She loves to take alot of pictures, too and she's blogging about her time in California, so you can follow Gaia on her own blog (it is in French, though, so good luck reading it!) You'll be seeing lot's more of her here! We are really enjoying working with her! Gaia comes to Kids Horsin' Around through a foreign intern program, the Council on International Education Exchange, (CIEE) and is here to learn about equestrian school management, schooling, training and lesson programs.
