In my junk email was the letter from the solicitor I had been waiting for. My reserved joy was allowed to breathe, just for a moment. Enough to start a blog on the beginning of a new adventure.
The Yurt
[edit]
The word yurt is originally from a Turkic word referring to the imprint left in the ground by a moved yurt, and by extension, sometimes a person's homeland, kinsmen, or feudal appanage.
The term came to be used in reference to the physical tent-like dwellings only in other languages. In modern Turkish the word "yurt" is used as the synonym of homeland. In Russian the structure is called "yurta" (юрта), whence the word came into English.
