Marie-Line Luciani, a young energetic woman at the head of the Tallone equestrian centre l'Écurie U Baladinu, was probably riding a horse before she even rode her first bike! This young woman's all-consuming passion for this animal, to whom she has devoted her life since childhood, her raison-d’être, is instantly palpable. At 14 she decided to leave home to train with Yannick Chatagno, a well-known horse-riding figure from the Gémenos region. A few years later, she returned, having earned her diploma, and indulged her passion in Corsica.

With her typical determination, this young woman, alongside her partner also imbued with the same enthusiasm, created her own equestrian centre. Full of great ideas and resources, she spends her time between courses for the children in the region during the school year, and pony treks with tourists during the summer season. “Amongst all the outings that we offer, the one people prefer and the one that I love best is the trek to my grandfather's vegetable garden on the Tallone heights”, she proudly recounts.
