Life in the countryside has its own unique charm. It is a place where you can hear horses pulling carriages, where each carriage and each horse is known by name, and where love for these beautiful animals is passed down from generation to generation.
Love for horses
It all started fifty years ago, when I was only eighteen. That summer long ago, my family entered the world of horses and carriages.
Today, after five decades, I feel blessed to be part of this world. Fifty years represents almost an entire human lifetime, and each of those years was filled with love and perseverance.
Working with horses brought changes in our household. Back then we only had a few horses, so they worked, and today we own six tractors and a harvester. But that didn’t mean we forgot our beginnings.
Every year, let’s remember how we nursed those skinny and miserable horses through the winter and watch them rebuild and become ready for spring.
A family tradition of love for horses
This love for horses is no accident. My family has always been associated with horses. Both my father and grandfather were passionate horse lovers, but the circumstances at the time did not allow them to devote themselves to this hobby.
However, when grandfather came back from the war, he decided to get a few horses. That was the beginning, and since then, horses have not left our family tradition.
Love for horses and carriages
Our horses are special. We have beautiful Nonius horses, long and tall, like those you may have seen in carriages. There is a special bond between us and these horses. Each of them has its own name and its own story. We always try to provide them with the best conditions.
When it comes to carriages, we didn’t produce them ourselves, but we always took care of them as if they were our property. We keep them in perfect condition. When something needs to be fixed, there is our skill and will.
This black cab, for example, is already eighty years old, but it looks like it was made yesterday.
Continuing the family stable tradition
Tradition does not end, it continues. There are also younger members of the family who share the same passion for horses. Sinovac has already started to get involved, and we hope that others will follow his passion. We are genetically connected to these horses, and we feel like they are part of our family.
Life in the countryside, surrounded by horses and carriages, can bring a lot of joy and satisfaction. Passing this love on from generation to generation is a special experience. We hope that our family tradition will live on in the future, that new members will join this passion and that horses and carriages will continue to be a part of our everyday life.
Now that you know a little more about our family story, you may want to join the carriage ride and experience that special connection with the horses. And remember, love for horses is a love that lasts a lifetime.
