"Toilets were a big NO NO… by day 3 you could not breathe near the toilets, smell was foul. Faecal urine ratio to chemical ratio took over and it’s was hygenically gross! I now know why there was so much bush kaking going on as it was more hygienic."

"Hi! It was my first burn (not the last!) It give me hope in human being - I felt free, I felt happy… things that I tought important in a daily life reveal themselve not that necessary. I loved and I felt secure about the way we treat each other. I very much enjoy my time between monday to thursday … after that the vibe was différent… more like a festival / big party. I prefered the first part of my journey. Thank you very much to give us hope and a safe place to express ourselves ! Thank you. Special mention : on thursday, I got an infection - a earache - I got to go the red cross/ healthcenter … where I received kind an efficient care!!! They gave me antibiotiques wich help me a lot! So special thanks for all the team of the care center. Thank you! Hou saved my burn! ????"

"You guys are doing something insane. Like wordless. Like, literally out of space. Thanks for doing amazing, keep doing you. My feedback: - Please make sure the music offer is a bit more diverse after 10PM please, this is ridiculous, you hear the same song 3x every day (can you call it a song when its boom boom boom?) and youll here the same type of music in every tent. I think we can do better! - With the garbage as is (leave no trace), I love the vibe and style. But I think the effect is not as you hope. People will just drive their shit home and throw it away anywhere they can. If you would gather it on specific places on the festival (even with extra payment) the festival can actually collect different garbage seperately and give it a future where possible. I understand it changes the leave no trace a bit, but for humanity this is the better, way more sustainable solution I believe. I am of course open to discuss but as said: you already do amazing so keep doing you!"
