Do you pay someone from cleaning or do you clean it yourself? That looks like a lot of work, probably 1 full day per week (probably more) to: - vacuum everything (including the skirting boards) - mop the floors - dust everything else - clean all the windows - change/wash/dry the linens/towels - clean the kitchen - clean the toilets

- most of the carpet is covered by “stuff” and doesn’t get vacuumed, - it took maybe an hour to take care of the hardwood. - having a larger house doesn’t mean you have more to wash. How much you have to wash is a function of how many people live there. - you would have a kitchen either way - one bathroom only got used when guests come, one was our sons (and his responsibility). That left only two - the one in attached to our room and the half bath. The gym got sanitized with everything being wiped down and air freshener after every use.

  > - you would have a kitchen either way I'm fairly sure your kitchen in the 360sqm house is bigger than my kitchen in the 90 sqm apartment :-)

    It’s a kitchen with a stove, a sink, a microwave and a dishwasher. What does the size of the kitchen have to do with how hard is to clean? That’s a function of how much you cook and what you use to cook.

> vacuum everything (including the skirting boards) My house is mostly wood floors but I maybe Swiffer and vacuum once a week (probably a lot less) for about 15-20 minutes. I run Roomba once or twice a week to take care of the rest. > mop the floors I can count on one hand how many times I mop floors per year in any size house. > dust everything else I definitely don't do the blinds/baseboards/etc enough. Wife usually does the furniture once a week and the rest is on demand. > clean all the windows Only when I get a wild hair. > change/wash/dry the linens/towels Size of house doesn't change this. See above. > clean the kitchen Still only one kitchen. > clean the toilets Same number of people
