Traditional Horsemanship & Equestrian Culture
Discover Portuguese equestrian traditions, Vaquero culture, and authentic horse heritage
Today, I combine my many years of experience in the travel industry, including my work as an office manager in Germany and as an instructor at the Travel University in Honolulu, Hawaii, with my passion for horses, cultures, and extraordinary places.
With heart, experience, and expertise, I create immersive journeys that go far beyond traditional travel.
Discover the vibrant equestrian cultures of Portugal, Sonora in Mexico, and, in the future, Canada. Our journeys bring you closer to the local people and horses, allowing you to experience centuries-old riding traditions and authentic horsemanship firsthand. It is not simply about riding, it is about immersing yourself in a region, its history, its landscapes, and its unique horse culture.
The result is a collection of carefully designed journeys filled with personal encounters and unique insights, shaped by the people, horses, and traditions that make each region so special.
Sonora, Mexico
Rancho Terra Bravo, Portugal
Discover authentic Vaquero culture on a historic working ranch, where daily ranch work is still carried out entirely on horseback. Ride alongside experienced Mexican Vaqueros, meet master leather craftsmen, and experience genuine ranch life through cattle work, horsemanship, and living Western traditions.
Enjoy an unforgettable stay at the historic Hacienda Bacasobabi, where regional cuisine, warm hospitality, and stories of horses, ranching, and cowboy heritage bring the culture of Sonora to life.
Visit us at Rancho Terra Bravo, a place whose name reflects our philosophy: “Terra” represents the authenticity and natural character of the land, while “Bravo” embodies the free spirit of the Mustangs.
Immerse yourself in Portugal’s rich equestrian culture and discover its unique horse heritage. Visit traditional saddleries, experience Working Equitation and classical horsemanship, and discover the tradition of riding with the Garrocha.
Meet master craftsmen, experienced riders, and dedicated horsemen and women who passionately preserve and pass on their knowledge and centuries-old traditions.
Alberta, Canada
This fall, I will be traveling to Canada to continue developing my wild horse project on location. I want to take the time not only to create guided experiences throughout the region, but also to immerse myself more deeply in the history and living horse culture of Western Canada.
Our future workshops in Canada will explore the country’s unique equestrian heritage, Western Canadian riding traditions, and regional horse culture. Look forward to authentic encounters and experiences shaped by the people, horses, and landscapes that make this part of Canada so special.
