We kept coming back to their yurts because they looked very clean, resilient, and mindfully designed around the structure’s traditions, but with added modern features.

Jake: We researched about 10 other yurt companies before choosing Pacific Yurts. We relished the chance to design our own yurt interior, so we thought a Pacific Yurt would be the perfect dwelling for our move to raw forested property in Canada! What made Pacific Yurts standout over other structures or companies on the market? Many of the families we saw living in Yurts had these amazing living spaces that looked comfortable and quite beautiful. Nicole and I also enjoy watching YouTube videos of families and couples who build and live in unique housing. While in the grasslands of Mongolia, I stayed in a traditional Mongolian Yurt – it was an amazing experience! I remember loving the design and feeling of warmth and comfort that the yurt gave me while I was wrapped in wool blankets safe inside that Mongolian Yurt. Jake : I traveled throughout China and Mongolia when I was 21 years old. What inspired you to pursue an off the grid yurt lifestyle? W e live in a 30 foot Pacific Yurt located on North Vancouver Island. Let’s start with a quick introduction of you and your yurt. To learn more about their adventures, we sent them a Q&A to see what it’s like to live off the grid in a Pacific Yurt.

We’ve since launched a video series covering their incredible journey that takes viewers through their process of building a yurt and living in the ruggedness of Canada’s wilderness.

They also told us they wanted to share their story about the benefits of living in a yurt by bringing more awareness to off the grid yurt living. When Jake and Nicole visited our facility to pick up their Pacific Yurt, they told us they wanted to start a sustainable property centered around a yurt.
