In our post-modern societies, in fact, &#8220;having&#8221; is no longer the primary goal in itself, because we are most often saturated with consumer products. &#8220;Being&#8221; becomes essential.

After a while, we no longer even have any lasting memories. This is why \"leaving\" becomes essential for changing our bearings. A kind of reset, as we would say in 2.0 mode...\n<br\/><br\/>\nExperiential journeys, even more than exoticism, are an extraordinary lever for reset, because when we wander at the pace of walking or horseback riding, space and time regain natural dimensions, unaccelerated or imposed, which we had lost in our overactive lives.\n<br\/><br\/>\nMoreover, when, on this occasion, we discover castles, abbeys, or other illustrious places, such as battlefields or historical encounters, yet other dimensions of time are added to us, counted in centuries. It becomes the very matrix of unforgettable memories.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- ROW --><!-- ROW --><div class=\"htheme_row htheme_featured_content_row  htheme_margin_style_no_top\" style=\"background-image:url(); background-color:#cccccc\"><div class=\"htheme_container\"><div class=\"htheme_inner_col\" style=\"height:650px\"><div class=\"htheme_featured_content_holder\" ><div class=\"htheme_featured_content_inner\"><h2 >\"Itin\u00e9rance\", friendly sharing<\/h2><div class=\"htheme_custom_icon_holder\"><\/div><p >Finally, beyond space and time, there is \"us,\" that is, \"me and others.\"\n<br\/><br\/>\nThose who, whether friends, couples, families, or simply gatherings of a few days, take you out of your daily routine and into a different context, where you become available and therefore much more open. <br\/><br\/>\nAnd I'm not even talking about the amazing connection that develops in these privileged circumstances with your horse.
