    Answer: It can be difficult to move in here as we have a limit of 75 adults on our address - and there is no waiting list.
    If you like Thylejren and would like to come and live here, it is recommended that you start to get out here a lot, possibly live in a tent or with someone you know. If the trial period is open, you can only apply during winter at a community meeting - and an address here is never guaranteed

  • Question: Can I bring my dog along with me?
    Answer: Dogs are welcome and they are also welcome to run free. However, be aware that there are other dogs living here and there are many cats and chickens.
    If you cannot control your dog properly, please leave it at home or keep it in a leash. During festivals, you should leave the dog at home.
