Gothenburg Horse Show 2017 – WHAT a week!!
Hello again!!
it´s been a while, but I´ve been very busy with work and last week (February 19th-26th) I spent in Gothenburg working as a volunteer at the Gothenburg Horse Show 2017. I was working as a caterer and serving meals to 300 volunteers, grooms, Vets, FEI people, Longines People and the pony club, junior and young-riders. But the GHS also have CSI5***** and the FEI World Cup Jumping – Western European League Final before the big World Cup Jumping and Dressage Finals in Omaha, Nebraska in the United States of America.
Well, I´d 8 great days in Gothenburg and I made lots of new friends and met great people and some of my favourites riders.
Nellie Berntsson – we meet again!!
I´ve met swedish top junior rider and blogger/author Nellie a few times and she does remember me! Maybe cuz we´ve met and she´s so sweet and such an INSPIRATION and a Role Model to me even though she´s just 17 years of age!! I told her when I met at an autograph session she had at at ALFAB Häastlastbilar exhibition booth at EuroHorse that she inspired me to start blogging and of course I chose to start my blog at Spotlife where she´s a part of their blog profile/family.

I also purchased two lucky charms (got one for free) to put on the bridle from Hästsmycken who shared exhibition booth with ALFAB. Go check them out, you can design yourself or buy already made charms. contact them through DM. I know Nellie has bought lucky charms from them.
bought two lucky charms and got one for free. These are really lovely and Baby T is going to look so cute in them.
Goodbye Call ASK -we THANK YOU for all you´ve done for Team Sweden through the years and wish you a happy retirment!!
i can´t believe that Casall ASK 18 years(!) young has done his very LAST show in SWEDEN, it was an emotional farewell ceremony Saturday night, February 25th before the Gothenburg Trophy class. I cried my eyes out as SWEDEN thanked Casall ASK and his long-time partner Rolf-Göran Bengtsson (SWE) said farewell to Sweden and boy oh boy, am I going to miss out on these two in the ring.
Thanks for all the MAGICAL moments you´ve given us, Casall! #FarewellCasallAndWeThankYou #YouWillBeMissed #CasallASK
THANKS for EVERYTHING Casall ASK!! You´ll be missed in the ring, you´re SIMPLY THE BEST <3333
