Yurt Accommodations In Europe

I received an email today:

Greetings Bruce

I write from the online travel community Airbnb.com

Currently I am creating an area on our site specifically for Yurt rentals. You seem like an authority in the field and by far the most frequent blog contributor, so you are the first person I wanted to contact in my search for exposure on the blogosphere.

Recently we began offering these Yurt accommodations on our site:

In UK: http://www.airbnb.com/rooms/26890
In Ireland: http://www.airbnb.com/rooms/27398
In Hawaii: http://www.airbnb.com/rooms/28739
And this Yurt from Rob Matthews at the Yurt Workshop and Hooting Owl in Spain:
http://www.airbnb.com/rooms/27440

Any coverage you could oblige would be greatly appreciated. I love your story and notions of human shelter; you would be a welcomed member of the Airbnb community. Please let me know your thoughts and if there is anyway we could possibly reciprocate the effort.

Thank you Bruce and I look forward to hearing from you.

Song Kul yurts, Kyrgyzstan

Maybe not the obvious choice for a hotel stay, but a night’s rest in a nomadic yurt in Kyrgyzstan will at least give you a memorable experience. If you’re not fussed with fluffy pillows and bath robes, you’ll loving staying in the yurts at Song Kul Lake, located 3,016m above sea level. Live the Genghis Khan dream, trek, watch the fantastic wildlife and breathe some seriously fresh air. The nearest town is 500 miles away, so rest assured: no one will disturb you. More details can be found on Dragoman’s website.
