Let's introduce...Anouk Daris

Since several weeks Anouk Daris is doing her internship at The Beukenvallei. Anouk introduces herself:

'My name is Anouk Daris, I am 20 years old and I live in Luyksgestel, The Netherlands. I do the STOAS Bachelors study equestrian sport. Before this study I already completed the study Catering Management. This is my first year of my new study and at the Beukenvallei I do my first internship. I choose the Beukenvallei as I already train with Marcel and I think the Beukenvallei is a great barn. I think it's great that the welfare of the horses is priority number 1 here. 
With the ponies I have competed 1 pony at national level and 4 others I competed in jumping and dressage up to Z level. Right now I have four horses I compete. Besides them we have several younsters and foals at home. 
I took my horses Postelhoefs Zaniet (Solitair x Naturel) and Postelhoefs Clooney (Valdez x Michelangelo) to the Beukenvallei. I change horses every week so that I can learn a lot with these two. I show Zaniet at Young Riders level and ZZ-zwaar and Clooney is a Z1 horse.
My goal is to achieve as much as possible in the equestrian sport. I will combine the horses with working in the hotel my parents exploit (Hotel Postelhoef, so that's the reason my horses have Postelhoefs as the sponsor name). 
I hope my riding will improve at the Beukenvallei and I would like to learn to ride more with a plan. I would like to learn to work with achievable goals. So far I enjoy my stay at The Beukenvallei and I already have learned a lot. My internship is 11 weeks in total and I am here already six weeks. Time flies when you are having fun!'
