Ariaban Essence

Samantha Mattocks

Freelance journalist & writer specialising in food writing and photograph, travel & Arabian horses. Owner of nourish magazine, The Arabian Magazine & The Delicate Diner. Debut novel Sandstorm out now.

I founded The Arabian Magazine at the end of 2004 in partnership and became a sole owner in August 2008.

With the magazine, I have interviewed some of the biggest names in the Arabian horse world, visited some of the finest Arabian horse studs and also seen some of the legends in breeding programmes first hand. I My travels have taken me through Canada and the USA, across Europe and the Middle East and down to Australasia and South Africa.

My goal is to make The Arabian Magazine a household name while at the same time, continuing to push for the excellence I believe in so much. Arabian horses are about passion and dedication, not just a trophy cabinet.

In 2010, The Arabian Magazine was a winner at the one-off Dubai International Arabian Horse Championships Media Awards, taking the runner up prize in the Best International Media section."
