A
snow igloo
When
I met a woman from Greenland about several years ago, first question I
asked: ”did you live in an igloo? How did you feel?”
She
laughed a lot. “No body live in an igloo in Greenland,” she
replied my question.
Greenland
is part of Denmark, hence, Greenland people have modern life as
Denmark. They live in houses in a village or apartments in a city,
off course with heaters.
Actually,
igloos are temporary shelter when Eskimoes are hunting, especially
during winter hunting. In normal condition, they live in houses.
Now,
an igloo can be rent. Many countries provided igloos for tourist
purposes. The cost from as cheap as U$ 10 per night to more than US$
200 per night.
