Cleaning dust from the floor.
خلفية ثقافية
Danes take their shoes off at the door. This makes vacuuming 'gulvet' a high-priority task because people walk in socks or barefoot. The 'Saturday cleaning' (lørdagsrengøring) is a common tradition where the whole family helps 'støvsuge gulvet'. Robot vacuums (robotstøvsugere) are extremely popular in Danish apartments to keep up with the high cleanliness standards. Danish homes often have expensive wooden floors. Vacuuming is preferred over sweeping to avoid scratching the wood with grit.

The Soft D
