Lianne Ashton is a photographer based in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. She started this blog in 2012 when living in central Mozambique on a sugar estate. Since then she has lived in Malawi and is now back on her childhood farm in South Africa.
Here she shares with you her experiences of living in Africa, the incredible people she meets and the places she goes to. This is a journey into the Africa she knows.
Some of these horses look way too underfed. I wonder how they are treated.
Yep some of them definitely look like they need a few more buckets of feed. The cart horses generally have long days with varying loads and I’d say it’s a pretty hard life in that respect. But I’ve got to say that the Senegalese love their horses and are very proud of them. Owning a horse is a ‘out of reach’ dream for many of them!
