some experience with horses required

my search for a job is similar to jon's search. except me and the teaching thing dont go together well. but i carry my continual dream of living overseas selling flowers or something simple. to learn the culture. to learn the life that i can only dream of. this failed quest quickly became a "im going to take a trip in the next few weeks" (dont be surprised if i am gone for a week). this failed quest quickly brought me to this website. people who need help gardening or painting or learning japanese or taking care of children can post on this and let their needs be seen. i believe these are all unpaid, but they cover your expenses for when you are there. i believe they provide a place to live as well. one post stood out to me, in grenada spain:
We are looking for a reliable person with initiative to stay & look after our property for 2 weeks during june or july(dates flexible) whilst we are away. We have 3 horses & 4 cats. Some experience with horses required (although we do not want them to be ridden when we are away) There are some other jobs to do watering plants etc but our main concern is that the animals are well fed & happy.


this is amazing.

you should spend the next few weeks learning how to take care of horses so you could do this.

You should do this. Pack your bags. Get your passport. Your horse awaits !
