Out-of-Office Emails… typed by horses

Iceland’s latest quirky promotion invites tourists to “Out-Horse” their emails

Disconnect from work and let the horses of Iceland reply to your emails while you are on vacation. (Seriously)


This is how a news release explains it:

Using a large keyboard mat, Iceland’s Out Horse service sees the only horses in the world with five gaits walk, trot, canter, tölt and pace their way across the fields as they take on the role of out of office. From (horse message) to (horse message), travellers can request to get their very own emails written by Icelandic horses, so that they can go gallop-vanting around the country undisturbed.


What’s more, you can pick a horse of your choice:
