At first I thought there would be all these ridiculous rules and people very very religious who would be all irrational and if I just said “The Pope was wrong” they would call the Inquisition on me. That didn’t happen. They were wonderful, and just about everyone was nice. If you were walking and you saw a person you only saw once or twice it wouldn’t be strange to say a hello to him/her.
There was also community work and reflexions. These two things were wonderful. As everyone was willing to do the work, to help the community, there was no complains (well, except if there was an exceptional amount of work to do) and people even volunteered to clean the toilets (you don’t want to know what you could find there).
What do I have to say?! The only things I didn’t like were the prayers that occurred during the morning, lunch time and dinner. The rest I liked and I came happier from there.
A daily activity: people singing and dancing together...no hippy orgies...it was a Christian place ;)
