A RIDER’S PICKS

We took a short trip to Versailles, just outside of Paris, to visit Lauren and her horse Gigi. It was one of those days when you can smell the rain in the air. It was about to pour. Only 30 minutes from the city, Gigi’s barn is surrounded by soft greens and rustic stables — the countryside calm that feels worlds away from Paris. Lauren comes four times a week to ride and reconnect, and we joined her to capture a glimpse of their activity. In her favorite Odissea’s.
