Even though you have to compromise in Flatland all the time, in this space and within the group there is a lot you get in return: a smile in the morning, a delicious meal cooked by someone, a new costumized shelve for you personal space built by another Flatlander. That's what makes the 4 days (so far) very liveable. These are things the outside people don't think of when they look at us wondering how we are able to manage.
