Hey Reader,

After over a year and a half of not missing a weekly email newsletter, I missed sending something out the last couple weeks 😮

Been a bit MIA between some work travel which included nearly 16 hours of driving, and currently on a 2-week trip to Northern Ireland 🇮🇪

I'm spending 2 weeks with a volunteer program training young horses on a family farm that organizes horse riding holidays on the North Coast. Over the last week we've spent time spook proofing 4-year old horses - getting them used to all kinds of situations like loud noises, walking up and down steep banks, and crossing rivers. There has been lots of time in the saddle, but also lots of time sightseeing, grabbing pints at the pub, and enjoying traditional Irish music and dancing.

If you're not following along, you can check out my Instagram for more updates on my time here! (my Ireland story highlights show a little bit of what I've been up to so far)

Between volunteering during the week and leveraging my points and miles, this trip was extremely affordable. So make sure you stay tuned for next week's newsletter for the breakdown of how I made this trip happen on the cheap.

Talk soon,

Michelle
