Money and Costs

We will divide our rent and food costs by person days at the end of the trip.

Mako and Mika are paying for the two apartments completely up front. We will use the exchange rates at the time of payment to our landlord.

We don't have room for everybody during the whole period of time. This is especially the case before 1/3 when we get the second apartment. For those who are renting rooms the guest house will be in charge of their own payment during that period. You can directly coordinate with our landlord Fridrik Magnusson.

Rent

For rent, the current plan is going to be to pool the total cost, split by the number of total person nights, and then charge people by the number of nights they stay. We're basically full. At the current exchange rate, the price will be under USD 22 per person per night.

• Flat 71: The cost is 1380GBP (~2200USD) from 12/30 through 1/13.
• Flat 73: The price is 1150GBP (~1780USD) from 1/3 through 1/13.
• Total: 2530GBP

Additionally, the Guest house will be 25USD/person/night for those who need a place to stay before their houses become available.

Food

We are planning to cook most of our meals together including dinner each night. We plan to buy all our food in Iceland. BONUS is the local discount supermarket. We will keep receipts and split costs similarly to the way we divide costs for rent (see the section on rent above).

There are at least 4 vegans and a large majority of people attending are vegetarian. The current plan is to cook primarily vegan and exclusively vegetarian to simplify things and to keep costs low.

We're planning on share the cost for vegan items among all people and sharing the costs of explicitly non-vegan items among non-vegans unless the costs are trivially small.

If folks feel a strong desire to cook meat we can try arrange for one kitchen to be meaty.

Folks who don't help cook meals should help clean.
