Equestrian Adventuresses was started by Krystal Kelly, Californian girl determined to see the world from the back of a horse. She is on a quest to visit every country in the world! Her quest has led her to some pretty crazy places, such as Iraq, Yemen, Bhutan, Timor-Leste and more! Her personal journey started back in 2010 when she left the USA for good. She’s worked abroad in over 20+ different countries as a rider, trainer, FEI II Coach, clinician and club manager. She’s started riding clubs around the world and is a best-selling author, and award-winning videographer. She hosts her own Amazon Prime series for Equestrian Adventuresses.

Krystal has a passion for sharing her love of travel and horses with others, which is why she often worked in “male dominated countries” in order to help get more women involved in the sport and to help teach the men to have “softer hands” and “ride like a girl!” She is passionate about women’s empowerment and her goal in life is to see women around the world having the same opportunities with horses as men.

Ute is a sociologist, an adventuress and a horse-woman. She has traveled to many different countries and lives today with her husband and son in Udaipur/India where they have a horse farm and trail-riding business.

She has been interested in Natural Horsemanship for many years and has studied with different horse trainers to be able to ride and train her horses the natural way.

Her keen interest in journalism has prompted her to take over the Equestrian Adventuresses Podcast and she loves to read and write. She lives on a farm in the countryside together with her family, horses, dogs and other animals.
