Call your neighbor every time you need to put some dishes in the dishwasher or do some laundry?
You could have a maid but then you need to have them around all the time or you need a lot of space. Also many places in Europe it's essentially illegal to have a maid.
How is it illegal to have a maid in EU? Never heard of this one so genuinely curious. It's super expensive for sure but not illegal at least here in France.
Maybe this is mostly in Northern Europe. There's certainly companies providing cleaning services, but you may find thats it's essentially impossible to find locals who will clean and cook for you every night. The alternative is then an au pair, but they're allowed to do only limited housework and some people have even gone to jail for having multiple au pairs working as maids, tough technically for breaking immigration laws by having multiple au pairs, it's judged harshly because a lot of people believe the concept of maids is nothing but oppression of poor women.
I said essentialy. There's certainly companies providing cleaning services, but you may find thats it's essentially impossible to find locals who will clean and cook for you every night. The alternative is then an au pair, but they're allowed to do only limited housework and some people have even gone to jail for having multiple au pairs working as maids, tough technically mostly for breaking immigration laws for having more than one au pair.
