Are you an expat bachelor living in Bangkok? If you are, you know what a wonderful and rewarding experience life in the Big Mango is, the people are friendly, the food is delicious, and there is always something fun to do after work and on your holidays. Bangkok’s extensive public transport system makes it easy to get around town to wherever the action is, and to visit points beyond like a seaside weekend!
If you are just on your way here, or are thinking about retiring here full time, then you will be looking for a great place to live. Well, no worries, there is always a beautiful Riverside condo in Bangkok for sale that will be the perfect place to call home during your Bangkok sojourn! Condo living is great and stress free, but there is one thing that falls upon the bachelor’s shoulders, and that is keeping it tidy! You don’t want to be in the position of having a friend or co-worker drop by to find your dirty laundry all over the floor and a grimy bathroom, would you? We know it’s hard to make time for housecleaning in your busy schedule, so we have assembled some tips to help make it a breeze!
Designated Cleaning Day – Speaking of busy schedules, the best way to fit cleaning into yours is to actually schedule it like any other important activity! Once a month should do the trick, and make it a day of the week when you know you will have time so you don’t try to put it off, stick to it! Sure, you can reschedule if something important comes up, but remember that taking care of this task will be rewarding and fill you with the pride that comes from running a tight ship!
Make It Fun – It can be hard to get motivated to clean up, but having some fun while you do it can sure make it go a lot faster! Queue up your favourite hits playlist and rock out while you clean up your private real estate, you can even throw in a few hip-dance moves while you sweep and mop! Make sure to have a favourite snack and a drink prepared for the occasional break in the action to refuel your pep, and when the job is all done reward yourself with a great meal! See? That wasn’t so bad, was it?
Dress The Part – Cleaning day is the time to put on your ugliest old T-shirt that you just can’t part with, some baggy sweatpants, and super comfy slippers. Don’t wear anything that you don’t want to accidentally spill some bleach on, these are clothes that are made for messes! If you really have to get down and dirty on a stubborn floor stain, wear some knee pads, they make it so much easier! The other go-to item is a pair of rubber kitchen gloves, they come in a variety of bright colours so you can make a fashion statement!
Hire A Maid – Dude, if you can afford a condo by the river in Bangkok you can afford to hire a maid!
Now relax and take it easy, you’ve earned it!
