Unusual places to stay vacations
It's no coincidence that unusual places to stay vacations, such as tree houses, yurts and houseboats, appeal to the child within. They are like playhouses. The sorts of places we dreamed of as children. And so few of us have time to play any more - except on vacation. Most interestingly, however, from a responsible tourism perspective, unusual accommodation is often created by people who are committed to sustainable builds and living.
