Roughing it for me as a B&B with a bathroom down the hall. But seeing Ralph Lauren's teepees, the luxury tents at Vanyavilas in Ranthambore I am rather tempted to change my tune. Love your suggestions for purposes for a yurt Irene. Cheers, Claudia I am so not into camping! Roughing it for me as a B&B with a bathroom down the hall.

Love your suggestions for purposes for a yurt Irene.

I have an appreciation of the roundness and elemental experience/exposure of being in a yurt. You're reminding me of the retreats I used to lead in a yurt on the Marin coast. "BodyWisdom" workshops... hmmm great memory! Thanks for sharing your expanded perspective on design and environments, Irene. Truly inspired! Hmm.

I love some of the warmth and simplicity found with nomadic living and yurt living.

I had a bit of a downer on yurts due to exposure to many hippies I didn't really resonate with. It was linked in my mind with not showering for days and living cheaply. Just my personal story here. So watching this video and reading what you've written here lets me look upon them in a new light. They really do have a such a beauty unto themselves. The more modern ones and all their possible uses sound fascinating. Thanks for enlightening me. Fiona Stolze Inspired Art and Living http://fionastolze.com I think you’ve converted me Irene.
