We are a German family living in North Karelia with four horses and a dog. We live in a beautiful former school house surrounded by beautiful nature, lots of forest and a huge lake.

Close to our home are two beautiful national parks, so there are a lot possibilities for outdoor sports. We speak German and English and learn Finnish. And of course, time can be spent with our horses (riding might be possible, depending on skills).
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
There is a lot to do, but already a support with the daily stable work and gladly also training (mainly ground work but riding might be also possible) with our horses would help us a lot. We also want to do some work on our house and stable, so if you can handle a paintbrush, saw and hammer, you are very welcome.
