  • Description

    Description

    My name is Lenka. I used to be a horse trainer in Spain and USA.. I traveled around and learned about horses in different countries like Ireland (BHS Exam) and worked with horses, especially in Andalusia and Colorado.

    Now, I would like to teach people how to connect with horses and nature on a deeper level. I have 5 horses and some chickens, a dog, and a cat, although help with them is not required.

    Our land is located on the edge of the village called Velký Týnec, 7 km away from the historical town of Olomouc in the Haná region. I am living a sustainable and off-grid lifestyle.
    I would like to ask for help around my private home and garden an I also help teaching my 11-year-old daughter anything you know - for example with the computer. I always create something, so I welcome help with DIY projects.
