Just wondering

[nc_hillbilly]

Hi y'all, I'm new to the yurt scene and am in the process of trying to decide between the traditional Mongolian style yurt versus the more modernized American style. I've read somewhere on here how the traditional yurts are more susceptible to weathering, mold and mildew, but couldn't something be done to lessen all that? Just wondering because when I do get a yurt, I really want a traditional one. And by the way, I live in the Piedmont region of North Carolina as far as weather goes, so it's pretty mild here for the most part. Thanks for any input.
