Welcome to the Spirit Traveler Earthship in Northern New Mexico! Nestled in New Mexico's high desert, the Spirit Traveler awaits your arrival. Whether you're looking for outdoor adventure or a much-deserved retreat, this home is it! Forty minutes to Taos Ski Valley, 35 min to Ojo Caliente (Hot Springs), 20 min to Taos and only 3 miles to the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge. Named one of Lonely Planet's top 10 eco-stays in the world. An Earthship, which Lonely Planet describes as "equal parts Gaudi masterpiece and Dr. Seuss whimsy", offers accommodations that are completely off-grid. Built from recycled materials, the home is powered by solar panels, rain and snow-collecting cisterns and a greenhouse for self-sufficiency. Spirit Traveler provides a rustic, private and romantic setting with 14 ft vega ceilings, concrete floors and plenty of space to unwind and regenerate. I've provided as many amenities as possible given the solar power system recommendations (well, except for the Keurig. I snuck that one in there). This Global model features two "airlock" rooms at each end for the entrance. This allows entry w/o sacrificing the inner temperature. You will find one of the rooms is also for yoga, meditation, prayer and inner reflection. Like most models, the front, south-facing room is a greenhouse featuring interesting plants such as Snake plant, Aloe Vera, Wandering Jew (Tradescantia), Oregano, Agave attenuata from La Jolla, a baby olive tree and a Plumeria. The living, dining room and kitchen are open making it easy for you to cook while visiting with your group or lending plenty of space to dance your worries away by way of a nice sound system. You will have a large, pull-out couch, chairs, stools and dining chairs; the dining table seats 4. The refrigerator and stove are specific for off-grid living but you don't need to sacrifice your inner chef. The kitchen is well-stocked with everything you need to prepare gourmet meals. Enjoy a solid night's sleep in a comfy queen bed. A large, custom-built closet resides at the back of the bedroom giving plenty of room for clothing and gear. All the rooms are bright, airy and uplifting. It's a peaceful experience and the stars are even visible from inside, waiting for you to partake in that "ah" moment.
