39 - Geert Cornelis in Þorlákshöfn, Iceland

The Hoof of the Horse Podcast

In this week’s podcast we take a trip to Iceland to meet Geert Cornelis, who appears as a photo subject my latest book. We talked all about the Icelandic Horse (don’t call it a pony!); what Icelanders do with a bad-tempered horse; accessing farrier education; how Viking “businessmen” shaped the country; shoeing to enhance the gait of a horse; the obstacles we need to overcome as farriers, and much more.
