Halfpipe silver medalist Hannah Teter plans to live off the grid in a tent-like dwelling aka a “yurt” after the Olympics.
"I will live in the yurt part time," Teter told PEOPLE magazine. "Mom has [a] huge garden and fruit trees, and I love it there. I helped my parents get solar power this past year, and I'll be running on solar and hopefully wind power with my yurt so I can be completely off the grid."
While speaking with PEOPLE, the snowboarder also revealed that she enjoys cooking stir-fry vegetables with a side of Quinoa for dinner.
From her vegetarian lifestyle to her humanitarian efforts, and now with plans to live an eco-friendly abode, Teter is the true Green sweetheart of the Vancouver Winter Olympics and continues to amaze and inspire us with each additional interview.
