Program Details

I like to start work on the first day, as my energy level is best at that time. The first day you arrive, the first thing is to get to know each other a little and cook some food. In the evening during dinner, we discuss what should be done the next day.

Activities & Shift

I think we start with a little breakfast before work and then we work for 2 hours before we have lunch at least 1 hour, then there will be some work for a couple of hours before we cook dinner and eat. We eat lunch and dinner together, but we arrange breakfast ourselves best in relation to when we get up.

Rules

We clean up after ourselves, keep order in both the common rooms and our own bedrooms. Smoking and drugs are not allowed indoors. It must be quiet between 11pm and 7am.
