I am a French woman of 44 years old who live in Cambodia. Passionate of animals and especially of horses I´ve been ridden horses for more than 20 years starting as a kid. Was not a surprise I wanted to work with horses. But life decided to take me on an other course. After 10 years in finance and 5 years in building construction, I went back to school first to study human osteopathy to become a massage Osteo vertebro Therapist and then to go back to my roots, horses. Specializations Today I am in the path to become a functional equine osteopath. I am studying at Animal Osteopathy International based in England till 2024. My goal is to be specialised in both equine and human functional osteopathy to be able to treat the horse and the rider. A journey with CPWO An incredible encounter with CPWO team in Kampong Cham province to see farmer’s horses for general vet check, deworming, disease prevention advice and even surgery. I was amazed of the trust they built with farmers, and what they achieve in animal welfare. I also met the village vet trained by CPWO who does an amazing job on site. I will be proud to be part of this organization which provide so much to the welfare animal in this country and also to the community.
