WHERE OUR STORY BEGAN
#YurtLife
During the first part of the pandemic, we lived in a yurt community outside of San Fransisco. During that time, we were deeply integrated into daily life living alongside nature and we would create funny rhymes and versus about our daily life and chores.
We had some modern amenities, an outdoor kitchen with running spring water, electric, and wifi. And yet we did not have heat or hot water or a bathroom. The bathroom was located a 5 minute walk to the main house along with an indoor kitchen.
We didn’t realize how cold it can be in the winter in the mountains living in a canvas cabin. We had to build fires for our only heat source and collect sticks in the woods and separate firewood.



WHAT OUR STORY HAS BECOME
#YurtLife
#YurtLife is the intentionality that we choose to live our life by. No matter if we physically live in a yurt or not. We ARE the yurt. We are the circle of Life and we respect all beings seen and unseen, to live in harmony with nature in this modern world.
We used our experiences and time in the yurt that humbled us and slowed us down to create what is now, "Nikki Kurt Lives in a Yurt." The book and our crafted experiences have so much love, gratitude, and collected wisdom shared at every moment.
The intention with this project is to inspire all ages to take care of and enjoy the natural world around them. We need this reminder now more than ever, to slow down and enjoy the simple joys in life.
