Aflevering #101 Inês And Francisco Bessa De Carvalho

In January I visited Portugal again with CAVAGO for the very first Global Horse Dreamtours. In 6 days I experienced some of the best of Portugal’s equestrian activities. And again I was so lucky to meet some of Portugal’s equestrian professionals for an interview for the HorseHeroes podcast. Listen and enjoy all of their amazing stories. These series are powered by Cavago; The world-leading equestrian booking platform His passion for horses started in the early years of his life. He started riding as a child and his masters were Luis Valença and Dr. Guilherme Borba. In 1984, he joined the Portuguese School of Equestrian Art as a rider, where he continues to work and is currently a Mestre-Picador. He is also a riding instructor and trains riders of different nationalities in individual lessons in his stables in Lisbon. Given his huge passion for horses and specifically for the Lusitano breed, he began as a breeder in 1989 when he founded the stud farm Lusitanos d’Atela. His daughter Ines has had contact with horses since she was a baby. Having been brought up in the studfarm, she was keen to have a professional life in the equine industry too. She went on to study Veterinary Medicine at Lisbon University and then spent some years abroad gaining experience in different areas of the veterinary world.  Enjoy the proud story of Inês and Francisco Bessa de Carvalho in this interview!
