When I was a little (smaller😉!) girl, I wondered why Santa comes to visit me in Finland 24.12, and my friends in Southern Europe 25.12? My mom explained. "Of course. Santa first visits his local kids, and after the priorities, he travels to the rest of the world." Simple, hey, it makes sense!

This year, we're very lucky to be Santa's local kids - he came for surprise visit to share carrots to my friend's stables. This beautiful little stallion (Diaman de Semilly x Landos BRD) thinks Santa is the best guy ever - and is very happy to be one of his local kids🎅🐎!

Have the most beautiful Christmas time everyone🌟!

Kukas se siinä kiiltelee ja kasvattelee keskikehoaan, laitumella pienen laumansa pomona, parasta hevosenelämää viettäen? Santtu Santeri lähettää eläkepäiviltään terveisiä kaikille faneilleen ja pikkuratsastajilleen, joille opetti aktiivivuosinaan ratsastuksen ABCn. 🦄❤️!

You can find better connection with your horse, and most of all, make him more relaxad and confident with the surrounding environment, just with a lead and a head collar. Today it was a pleasure to follow Tristan Tucker's clinic in Helsinki. Thank you and

We have had an honor of owning and training many horses, but this one is very special. Wäinö is a cold blood giant, around 180 cms in withers, and size 6 hooves. He is worth of gold, all of his 800 kgs - driving, volting, timber work, dressage, showjumping. You need something done, call Wäinö💖!

Our foundation mare Bahati has no limits! After working as equitation horse, jumping international shows, and producing us two beautifull foals, she has started a new career as a cross country horse, with her rider Kristiina Rosti. Bahati is pure gold!

Amazing memories! This picture of Baloubet du Rouet, the grand sire of our mare Bahalou Z, with his groom, and rider Rodrigo Pessoa is taken in Helsinki 1998, World Cup Final. It was 17 years before my Bahalou was born - but I was watching the show, and Baloubet kept in my mind...

Nightless night and endless fields of grass... Have a great midsummer weekend! Hyvää Juhannusta!

Sporthorses are often taken care of, lots better than us humans. Django is enjoying his restorative exercise after long transport across Europe🐎🚚.

This old lady celebrates her 30th birthday doing, what she does best; transporting horses safe all the way across Europe, this time from Spain to Finland. Happy Birthday my good old Merc🚚♥️!

Upeita tuloksia ja uutisia - isot onnittelut Suomen tiimille💪!

"Ihan sairaan hienoa. Törkyhienoa! Vuosia tätä on rakennettu, ja osa on tähän uskonut, osa ei. Olen niin ylpeä näistä kaikista", Sanna Backlund hehkutti.

Talented and carefull 7-year-old Bahalou Z (Balou du Rouet x Landos) is looking for a new home due the owner-breeder's accident, taking her out of sports for a while.

Back home and dressage - precision, balance and rhythm.

Lulu has jumped some really nice rounds in Sunshine Tour 2022 with Erika, despite that she is still very green and unexperienced as a show horse. 3 placements and clear rounds in 2 weekends is more than you expect from a still young little mare❤️!

I'm often so concentrated in my horse and training, that hardly notice the landscape around the arena. Thank you for taking this pic, and reminding me, how awesome surroundings we're riding around! Psst.... You can too! .and.ride
