We held this volunteer program in March 2002. We were building a horse feeding roof in the field and made some action painting with my horses (we used caly and occre). Marie-Jacques was with me for 3 weeks and her ideas inspired us to do some nice Photos in the field. See also her feedback. Thank you very much for staying with me and helping improve things in my farm. |

Not only the horses, but also children are the
best feedback for the welcoming and warm place Sabine's Smiling Horses
offers to volunteers.
We work hard and we have a lot of fun too. Kassandra stayed with us for 3 months in 2005 and helped us training some half grown ups for riding. |

Pierre from France. They have 40 horses at
home and he fit perfectly into the Costa Rican horse world. Not only he
did benefit from experiencing horsemanship at Sabine's Smiling horses, but
also we started our 3 year old horse Salvaje, that I got as a yearling
completely wild and did not buck once since we mount her.
Thank you Pierre for sharing your knowledge with us and helping with us. |
