Summer abroad working with horses?

[he1en]

Hi,

I briefly introduced myself ages ago and then realised I was too much of a wimp to post, however I have now plucked up some courage...

I finish university for good in May and am really interested in working abroad for a few months, I was wondering if anyone on here had ever done this? Any experiences or ideas would be much appreciated!
I am relatively experienced with horses, but have only ever competed at unaffiliated level, apart from showing heavies to county level. I am used to working very hard so that is not an issue and I don't particularly mind what country I go to.
I have set up a profile on the yard and groom website (applicant number 1020242) and plan to email some places but would love to hear if anyone has any recommendations.
Thank you!!

there are so many jobs just pick where you want to go!

If you also like kids then i would recommend camp america or BUNAC.
Working on a kids summer camp teaching kids to ride and horse care is so much fun! but also be prepared for hard work!
Flights there and back were paid for with a wage which isn't great but is enough to do some traveling with after!
