“Young man, go West!”, it was once said in America: riches lay in the immense expanses of the American West, the Far West, which awaited settlers and miners… Well, there was no shortage of aspirants to riches and today the American West it is rich and populous. But there are even more opportunities West of the West. If it is true that it is possible to 'buscar el Levante por el Ponente', continuing to go west you arrive in the east.
And so today cowboys from the American Wild West are in demand in China. Horseback riding is becoming popular, and a young American cowboy, Tyrel Hotchkiss, works in the northern Chinese province of Inner Mongolia. And according to Li Yanyang, editor of the Chinese 'Equestrian Magazine', the country will need many horse trainers in the next 5-10 years. “The equestrian infrastructure exists – he said – but we lack expert professionals. Over the past five years, equestrian clubs in China have brought in more than a thousand horses a year from abroad." And he added that the number is expected to increase significantly in the coming years. "But the problem is there aren't enough Chinese farmers to handle this affliction." And not only are cowboys coming from America. Europe is also sending its experts. In this case, “Young man, go East!”.
