Exciting adventure beginning soon!

The days are slowly but surely (actually not that slowly) ticking away, and the date of my departure for the Caribbean island St Vincent is coming closer. I am both looking forward to and dreading that day, the 27th of March. Or rather, I have mixed feelings when it comes to the whole trip. I think this is partly due to my lack of knowledge about what I am going to be doing while I am there, and generally all the unknowns involved in this trip. I am quite a control freak, therefore having so many unknown factors involved in this big thing I am going to do is quite unnerving.

I don't think I have explained fully what I am going all the way to the Caribbean to do, and that is partly because I haven't known and partly because I didn't want to admit that it was so soon. Now that I have come more to terms with this, however, I feel the time is right for me to tell you what will be happening with me and consequently what will appear on this blog.

On the 27th of March I am headed off to the Caribbean, and I am staying on St Vincent for three months. I am going to be a working student, learning about a method of horse training called Liberty Training, which was developed by Carolyn Resnick. I am going to be learning this from a certified trainer in this method, Stina Herberg. I am also going to learn about horticulture, or rather how they grow their food (which is all organic), and help train and care for the other animals they have where I am going, like sheep, donkeys, and hens. I am staying at Richmond Vale Nature and Hiking Center. This is going to be something out of the ordinary, and I think it will be really interesting.

I am planning on blogging about the experience, so you will hear about what I learn, what I think about it, funny things I experience, and so on. I will still read books and keep you updated on that, of course, since I haven't finished my 30 books challenge. I hope you will enjoy following me on my big adventure, which I am looking forward to sharing with you.
