Introduction
Hi, I'm Marjaana Korhonen and I have made my big dream come true, a horse activity of my own with my beloved horses at my small home stables in Hamina's Reitkalli. Horses have always played a big role in my life, now that I'm older I notice that my relationship with horses has changed. When I was younger, doing things was more performance-oriented, today horses are my work partners, friends and family members. The well-being of horses and the comprehensive consideration of their species-typical physical, mental and social needs is important to me. The well-being of horses is directly reflected in the well-being of us humans.
