He is going to live autonomously in the main ‘Con Te’ caravan of the community and contribute with his ‘love in action’ (=work) for 3,5 hours per day (on average), depending on the day and the season. Usually one day of the week is free!
Electricity and water needs are covered by the community. Heating for winter time is available according to individual needs. The caravan heating stove is available and the tenant should be purchasing gas bottles for it according to his needs and use.
He will be in the position to prepare his own meals at the kitchen of the Con Te rooms. Food provisions are easily accessible to him for purchase directly from the bulk bio/organic pure provisions of the community and/or shops in the neighbouring villages. Some of the produce comes directly from the community’s land.
After the 10-day trial, the new Korogonian is expected to contribute to the community with a certain amount of euros per month for the lodging, water and electricity supply, the learning experiences and the other gifts and structures which life in the community provide, i.e. celebrations, unity singing, circle dances from secular and sacred traditions of the globe, choirs, healing, alternative therapies, spiritual life, adults’ games etc..
He is also expected to pay the amount of the first 6 months in advance after the 10-day trial period.
