    Accommodation

    We are currently moving things around in the house and redividing everything. So depending on when you come, we will free a room for you. We can guarantee that you will have a room with a bed.

    We mostly eat vegetarian or vegan, but not exclusively.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    Most of us work a 9 to 5 job. We all have hobbies on top of that, so a lot of us are coming and going.

    The house is divided in 2 parts, but there are some communal spaces where we like to hang out together.

    We like to have dinner with everyone once in a while

    We have a big garden where you can always chill, we have a swimming pond with fishes and the city of Brussels is right at your doorstep.

    (we don't usually accept single men)
