Edit out the misused big terms absolute and love / red emoji that only reflect me the only absolute / lovable / sweet being and the only Lady / Princess / Queen / God / Star etc and the big term hero that only reflects my pure protectors aka the alphas -- misuse of big terms and other unsuitable terms / names / items etc is to be b4nned, and all humnz are the exact opposite of such terms!
Around 5:03 is so sad -- flowers are pure and sacred non-moving beings (like trees) who only reflect me, and plucking flowers and throwing flowers away is a harrible _ and it's beyond disrespectful to nature, and all such things that are wrong are to be b4nned also, and all should let others know that it is beyond wrong to do such things if they know others that do such things, and the fact that flowers and trees and plants are living organisms who aren't meant to be disconnected from the roots!
Not only does she clean their homes for free, but I love that Auri goes that extra step and installs light fixtures and buys items with her own money. She also hauls all the trash away too. She's such an amazing person!
@@mssummerrose1 When she started she had a day job in a cleaning company and did the free cleanings for fun at the weekends. Naturally she gets some revenue from youtube, now that the channel has grown I wonder if it's not her main job now. In my view "for free" means she doesn't charge the occupant anything - a thorough cleaning like this would probs cost several thousands € normally. I don't understand why some people claim it's not really "free" for the occupant if Auri gets some incone from the views because so many people enjoy watching the process
@@veevee4224 ok, thks for explaining... of course I believe she doesn't charge the occupants, I was just wondering how sb can make a living, you know... 😊
@@mssummerrose1 She does one free house a week, for RUclips, but obviously charges for normal everyday cleaning that we don't see, probably for houses that aren't this bad.
Auri, please, protect yourself, use some facial mask while doing the cleaning, mainly because you’re dealing with so many rotten food and mold. Its effects are not something that you may nottice in a short run, but in a long, you can develop some lungs or respiratory system disease. We love you girl❤ Edit: i saw in her most recent videos she’s now using it, i’m really glad
my friend is studying to be a nurse and they 3rd this! passing it on that those bad smells you’re inhaling all day are essentially clouds of bacteria, and usually the worse they smell, the more bad they are for your body 😥
Yes. I can only imagine what she’s been breathing in. And now that more people are doing this, it’s important to set an example for protecting yourself.
it's so validating to hear "it's okay if you let your house get messy, because you can take care of it after you've survived." that was me a few years ago, and continues to be, because it's a process. every time i watch your videos i feel so inspired to clean! thank you!
I am the only Leena and the only absolute / lovable / sweet being and the only Lady / Princess / Queen / God / Star / Leader / Queen Of Light / Angel / Boss / Master / Idol / Mistress / Royalty / Miss etc and the only amazing / great / lovely being etc -- misuse of big terms / compIiments etc and food related terms like -licious / yummy / sweet etc and other unsuitable terms / names / items etc is to be b4nned, and all humnz are the exact opposite of such terms!
Instead of oh my God, one should say oh my word or oh my - because big terms like God / Lady / Goddess / Princess / Queen etc only reflect me, and I don’t belong to anyone, so one cannot say oh my God, except for my protectors, as they say it in a way that does not imply ownership! Special names like Natalie and Lynn / Leen / Lin and Edith etc and gold / big / gemstone related names like Ari and Kat and Auri (gold related / aureate) also only reflect me!
Around 5:03 is so sad -- flowers are pure and sacred non-moving beings (like trees) who only reflect me, and plucking flowers and throwing flowers away is a harrible _ and it's beyond disrespectful to nature, and all such things that are wrong are to be b4nned also, and all should let others know that it is beyond wrong to do such things if they know others that do such things, and the fact that flowers and trees and plants are living organisms who aren't meant to be disconnected from the roots!
I don't know what it is, but watching your videos helps me so much. I can't explain it, sometimes I think that it does something to my brain. I see the huge challenges that you take on and I think to myself "if Auri can clean these huge mountain of messes, then I can certainly clean my apartment" Hearing your voice and your kind words is such an inspiration. You are such a kind person. Thank you.
My mom passed away a few years ago now, and around that time I found your channel! My dad lives far away from me, but he sank into a deep depression. Since then I've tried to support him with a phonecall at least almost every day. He struggles with cleaning, a lot, cus his physical health is not the greatest. I always sit on the phone with him as he cleans, and helps him out with good suggestions to make the cleaning a little lighter for him, and your channel surely has helped me find ways to help both myself and him! I also help with the heavier stuff when I visit, but he keeps it up with your tips and tricks, and similar products that you use! (scrubdaddy brings him a smile, cus he's a dad too!)
I have a lot of difficulty with things like cleaning and tidying, due to depression and the fact that I'm partially blind. I have no family and no one to help me outside of one person who visits me sometimes. I always apologise whenever people come to visit me and I've had people outright tell me that my home is disgusting because the main issue I have is washing dishes. But watching your videos, seeing you help people just like me with no judgement, no strings and telling their stories, it makes me feel like I'm not a failure for things getting out of hand, that it's okay that things do and I need to be able to forgive myself for it. Since I started watching your videos, I've been able to take things one step at a time with cleaning, and it's made a huge daunting task a bit easier to do. The way I've been handling it is by thinking one step at a time. If I enter a room, like my office or living room, I need to do one thing to keep it clean. Is there some rubbish on the floor? That's okay, just pick it up and put it in the bin. Are there some dishes left to clean? That's alright, you can clean those quickly before you grab your meds. It's been a life saver. Genuinely, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for your kindness, your compassion and your generosity. You change people's lives for the better, including mine.
@@v_hovila thank you so much ^^ I've managed to completely clean the upstairs rooms this way, and the downstairs isn't perfect but it's much more manageable now ^^ I'm hopefully getting help with my kitchen on Wednesday
Don't be afraid of paper plates! I know people who don't trust themselves to wash dishes and they find it so much easier to use paper plates and bottled water. It just means you have to take the trash out a little bit more. 😊
From what you can see in the pictures, this is a woman who isn't dumb or just doesn't care about how she's living, but at some point she lost track and then, at a certain point, it was just too overwhelming to tackle. I can totally relate to that. I guess that now, when everything is perfectly fine, tidy and clean, she will do her very best to keep up to the task and will not allow the trash and dirt to take over her flat again. Way to go, Auri!
I doubt it. That space will again be a mess in no time. What stops you from getting a garbage can and putting all trash in there? Why do they have to leave trash all over the house? It's not justified.
@@mariacelestebustillobarraz3583 That's what I thought before I had a person with a deep depression in my family. As a mentally healthy person you don't get it, but for people with depression, about everything can be too much. Even things that contribute to yourself not feeling hungry or dirty can be too much to tackle. And that adds to them feeling like being a failure. It's a place we should all be grateful not to be in.
Depression affects people differently. Add to the fact she was being treated for cancer, had no family to turn to, and likely was embarrassed to ask strangers. When I was in recovery after surgery, it was devilishly hard to drag a little bag out to the trash. So, treatment for a long-term illness, she was just letting the bins overflow. She has a clean slate and knows someone cared.
After watching your videos I have come to realize that there are many people who wind up alone when they get older and aren't able to take care of themselves. Many people don't have family or friends nearby so they have nowhere to turn when life hits them hard. This gave me an idea that I can't believe no one has thought of before. Nowadays there are apps for everything so why can't there be an app specifically designed to match people together who would be compatible roommates. I'm thinking of a "Golden Girls" type of situation where aging people who are alone can pool their resources and help one another. For example, a neat freak who can't afford groceries, a person who is financially stable but can't walk and a homeowner who loves to cook but can no longer keep their finances straight could live together and create a new kind of family. Of course they would have to agree to a background check get to know one another before moving in together for their own safety. I think that just knowing that an option like this exists would go a long way toward helping the elderly keep a positive attitude and avoid the depression that comes from watching everyone you know begin to pass away.
You are so right on, and they don't have the strength to do stuff for themselves. You are so kind to help these folks. You're giving them a second chance and in many ways a rebirth.
Yes, when I first watched The Golden Girls, I had no idea that with the exception of Dorothy & Sophia none of them "Knew" each other. They made their home so much fun over the years and it's also gained Cult Status in the LGBT Community.
I loved that song you played in the middle of the video, you are absolutely right: what matters is not how many times we fail, but what we do to pick ourselves up and move past our mistakes 🙏🏻❤️🫶🏻 Thank you for existing, Auri! I feel like you inspire the world to be a better place, more compassionate and understanding 🎉
As someone who has mobility issues, I can say what you did for this woman was such a blessing!! Its so easy for things to get out of hand because many times mobility issues come with a lot of physical pain. 💐💐
I agree completely!! I was disabled in a car wreck 12 years ago & even with surgeries to help "fix" some problems, there's still mobility & pain issues. It definitely makes it harder to do tasks that most find simple to do. But when you can barely walk, much less get out of a chair or from a sitting position, it's hard to do the simplest tasks!! Over time, my mobility has decreased in many ways & when you walk with a cane or have to use a walker, it makes some things more difficult to do, as most things you need both hands, but one is usually occupied holding your body up!! I love that she helps so many with mental issues, but I hate that many with physical & mental don't always reach out. I think having the combination is a much harder ordeal to overcome. The mental can be repaired in many situations, as my therapy has helped many of my trauma issues, depression, anxiety & PTSD. Although they are not gone, they're much better than they were & better than the physical issues. The physical issues are much harder to fix. 🥺
Ya know, I watch a lot of clean with me/decorate with me videos, and it struck me the other day that one thing I never see in these people's homes is BOOKS, unless they're being just used as decor. Doesn't anyone read anymore? I have some ebooks, and do try to limit the number of them that I accumulate, but I hate that most young people today are really functionally illiterate. So sad.
@@kck9742 Ebooks and audiobooks are great too, but I agree, it's just such an authentic, lovely feeling when reading from a physical book. The bummer is that a lot of us only have a limited amount of space for them lol especially if we rent. But hey, there's always the walls to hang shelves on to haha
@@kck9742 a lot of us are very mentally tired and social media has made the attention span thing a bit of a bigger challenge. please don't judge people for not being able to hold attention on a book; depression does that. I love reading but I haven't finished a book in over five years. you sound so judgy... please be aware of that. we can't reach anyone across generations acting like we're better than other people when we simply don't understand. that's what this entire channel is about.
@@peachy_lili If many people seriously can't hold enough attention to read a freaking book, well, that's pretty sad. Maybe cutting down on social media, which is largely a toxic waste dump these days, would help. Just saying. But I do hope your virtue-signaling comment made you feel better.
I was watching a youtubers documenting the horrors of hoarder shows. Someone commented about you and I searched you up. This is the first video I've watched from you but I just have to say you are one of the most kind human being I've ever seen. You are so understanding towards situations like these and are just so loving. I'm so happy that we have people like you in this world.
I live alone and actually only have two of each in my cupboard (two plates, two bowls, two spoons etc). . All the extras are packed away in storage so I can bring them out when I have guests but on an every day basis, two of everything is more than enough for one person, and it really helps with keeping dirty dishes under control and mitigating the risk of getting overwhelmed. Thank you for all you do Auri. You are a true GOAT of a human being ❤
I struggled a lot with dishes, so I did the same. it was just me, so one bowl, one plate, and one mug. Nothing more. I’d rinse them as soon as I had eaten. It really helped me through some dark times!
I am obsessed with your channel. You educate people on depression and mental health, you help people in need and you show so much kindness and compassion. You are such an amazing person. I have watched all your videos and will keep watching them forever.🥰
It isn't just cleaning. You add the extra touches to make them homes! When you get depressed, you can only focus on your situation, and ignore what needs you have. Auri, you seem to fill these needs to bring more joy into their lives!
How sad is this?! I'm an elderly woman who lives alone by choice, whose health is challenging on a daily basis; who loves to read (although I now read on Kindle or my phone, not being able to handle the weight of books anymore), and who cooks solely for herself---and I can't imagine "living" like this at all! You're immensely kind, Auri, to take on such huge cleaning tasks as this!
It shows how the world is geared for mobile people, planners who put the trash bins so far away forget that not everyone can walk, and not everyone has anyone to help them. I really hope that your lady gets extra help from now on, as she can invite people in, so that she doesn't end up again in the same way.
Yes, it is a common feature of these videos. They look like the same flats and if the bins are far away that is hard if you are disabled in any way. Bad planning and needs to get fixed.
My mom lost her mobility as she arrived in her 80s. It was a constant source of frustration for her to not be able to reach a set of clean sheets & change a bed, or wind the clock, or take her trash outside, or clean her door glass, or tote a load of laundry. I was her caregiver for the last five years, and I know how much it means to less-abled people to have that non judgemental help. You're so right that the world is largely designed for mobile, strong people, and the despair that can set in from not being able to do what you know needs done can absolutely set what you see in this house into motion.
@@celestewatson4874 I lost mobility when I broke both my shoulders. Thankfully I had my husband here, but if I had been alone, there was no way to make a bed, wash, or even dress myself. I had to have daily carers. When the built environment is designed by the able bodied, the non able bodied are largely forgotten.
This apartment has the semblance of a home. There's a bookcase and some plants. In many of the homes you clean, there's a shabby sofa somewhere under the trash and very little else, many people don't even have a bed. Despite the trashes, it still looks like someone could live there.
Thank you dear angel for helping all these people. I'm "only" 65 years old but I'm already suffering a lot. Sometimes I do my cleaning on all the fours because it hurts me everywhere. So, I think that, one of these days, I will have to ask for your help too. I'm sure that if angels do really exist, they have your face and your kindness. Thanks a lot for all the good you bring to all these persons around the world. 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Well my goodness. I feel like you were speaking directly to me. I'm 75 and have accumulated "stuff " for all my years . Family thing's and my own . I have so many dishes !!! I have a woman coming too help me after Christmas and we are going to get rid of 3/4 th of them . I am excited , however I realize that it will be hard . Thank you for truly making me know that I am doing the right thing. ❤❤
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the before and after pictures!!! You are such a sweetheart to help so many who need it!!! I'm sure Natalie will enjoy having company over for the holidays. Great job!
@@cynthiamuffoletto7480 she may be able to help you. You never know. I would email her anyway. She has helped someone in Switzerland, so even if you aren't in Finland, she may still be able to help.
@@cynthiamuffoletto7480 try Facebook groups, maybe ebay or craigslist or whatever you have available Scream out for help and hopefully somebody will hear you And until that day, do not give up!!! If you throw away just one bit of trash every day, you're still making a difference. Baby steps. And don't be too hard on yourself.
You are so adorable, "She's so old"🤣🤣🤣 I'm going to be 69 in a few months. When my husband passed away I left a huge house and moved into a much smaller one. I threw everything away. My daughter's think I'm too needy but I get along well. Beautiful song you played 🥰❤️ God bless 🙏
Hahaha yeah my dad is 72 now and it can be so easy to forget his age The other day he was ranting about "the older generation" until i asked him how old he is again You never truly age inside
The most amazing thing about you is that you don't judge people as if they were just lazy. Many people forget that NOBODY really wants to live like that. But they just can't do better at that moment. Of course there are people out there who have a different understanding of cleanliness or how tidy an apartment should look like, but this is different. They don't want to be like that.
You're so sweet I'm happy for the lady, now she can walk with her walker on her home, and has lights, she must be so happy, I'm sure you changed her life. I hope she's better soon.
Me too. I am praying someone brings her a twin bed w/ linens so she can get on it from the side, and maybe a little night table with a light to go beside it.
I love watching these so much. It gives me motivation to DEEP clean my own place. My place is very organized and not in this state but seeing you clean the walls and the stove etc makes me want to clean all the little details 😊
Oh, Aurikatarina! You are an angel~ I LOVE hearing your narration, and "trashes" and your "squee-ghee" (never change that!) ~ Your English is beautiful and it makes me relax! Thank you for all of your hard work, both in the homes of deserving people and for the time it takes to upload satisfying videos!
I giggle at her pronunciations too, I think it's adorable. It actually sparked a conversation between me and my mom about why the word trash is both singular and plural, but yet we add es on to other words to make them plural, but not the word trash.
A pleasure to watch these videos ✨😌 I look up to this girl, tidying large houses with huge messes & never losing the optimistic & kind attitude! Can feel why Finland is considered the happiest country 😊 Keep up the good work, Auri! 🌸✨
I've watched some other channels that do the same work you do but the attention to detail that you have is unmatched. It's so sweet of you to go above and beyond to replace her lights and take the time to find the specific replacements even going to multiple stores. You're really sweet and your work is beautiful. :)
To be fair, though, there are MANY others who also do excellent jobs of cleaning, but Auri has a YT channel that lets viewers SEE what she does. Not everyone wants to have a presence online, so we don't see the good things they do. And you're quite wrong that Auri's attention to detail is "unmatched;" I've watched a great many cleaning videos over this entire year, and some of the cleaners go far beyond even Auri in getting down to dirt that tries to hide itself in the tiniest places. You can't make such a broad statement as you did without hurting a whole lot of other people; just because you don't see what every one of them does doesn't mean there aren't other top notch cleaners doing good deeds for free, too.
I absolutely love cleaning, I couldn’t count how many homes I have cleaned for family and others, it’s just so satisfying. I also love cleaning very dirty vehicles.
Considerations: 1 - I love how happy you get when you find moldy things hahahahah 2 - Your nails are awesome 3 - I love the rising part! 4 - Having less things really let me mantain my house clean, because It's a lot easier to clean!
So i have borderline and depression and going through a really rough time but your videos motivate me to clean and im so proud of myself when im done cleaning. I dont do everything at once but some small things more often, thanks to you ^^ Thank you so much for motivating me through this rough time
When we began dating, my husband's bedroom in the house he shared was narrow enough for only a single bed! He had to get out of bed at the end of it since there was no room for him to stand beside it. We also had to briefly share a bedroom that literally had room for only a queen size bed. Nothing more! Our clothes fit in a small cupboard and under the bed while we looked for our own place to live.
@@Ms_eLLE I think I would dedicate an area of the living room for sleeping if this were my apt, and turn the tiny bedroom, into a dressing room. Wow, where did you live? Sounds even smaller than this bedroom. 😮
@@PLS.54 I've lived in smaller places than the one in this video! I lived in England where it's not uncommon for old homes to have been converted into flats with small rooms. The first place we lived was a small, narrow place where we had a pull out couch for a bed in one room that adjoined the narrow (yet modern) galley kitchen, a sitting area and adjoined to a wetroom. All one length wide enough for a one and a half king beds. It's amazing what can be done to create small yet functional living space! I live in an apartment now where the living room is as big as my entire studio apt when I lived in California!
@@Ms_eLLE I’m spoiled I guess 😂 I live in our 3 bedroom 2.5 bathroom house with just my husband now. Our children are grown, and have left home. One objectionable thing I found about homes in England, is they are way too compartmentalized for my taste, with doors on every room. If I had to live there, the first thing I’d have to do is tear down walls and doors. I would feel claustrophobic otherwise. 😮 My husband asked me not long ago, “could you live in one of those tiny houses?” I said, only if it was that, or a tent in the woods.” I said, “would you?” He said, “nope, me neither.” I guess we’re both spoiled. I said to him, “one day we may be glad just to have a tiny house.” We both laughed. You just never know!
Auri puts her heart and soul into these cleanings. It’s obvious how difficult it is for her to leave the bed in a dirty state. The people always seem to have such thin mattresses and small blankets. Perhaps @Ikea, should look into sponsoring these items.
Amazing Aurikatariina 👏 It is so sad her family were oblivious to this. Her home was such a health and fire hazard, and a prison for someone not very mobile. I'm glad she was brave enough to ask for help and has a fresh start.
I felt so motivated to clean after watching a few of your videos so I ordered a whole bunch of cleaning supplies. I’m sure I could of just used what I had, lol. But I felt like a fresh start, with fresh equipment. And I HAD to buy a scraper and a scrub mommy and scrub daddy! Lol!
Mylate aunt had been living like this,we had been able to move her to a assisted living facility near family for a new start in a clean home. She had mobility issues as well,this video brought tears to my eyes thinking about my aunt. I'm so happy you could help this woman.
Yaaaaaay! More trashes! More helping people and MORE Auri! You are the BEST! I love the song and the message you are sending to the world. Forgiving yourself is super important ❤️✌️👊
I was a supervisor for a cleaning. Company for 15 years. I loved it. I am the same way. You are so awesome to help people who just sometimes gets “stuck”. It’s satisfying.
Wow your so amazing, I learn a lot from watching your video's. If I was that lady I would move my bed out to the livingroom and use that small room for storage or a reading room or get a smaller bed, that room would make me go crazy its so small. Thank you so much for helping that lady pray God bless you for all you do for her and others. I tell my daughter that same thing you only need 2 plates, cups, ect. 🤗🤗💞
You are such a God send. So kind of you to help a woman that has mobility problems. She going to be so happy and grateful for all your hard work. You did an amazing job on her house.😊❣️💜💚❤️🧡😆😃
I hope her family will help her now and buy her a twin-size bed so she can get in and out better. She may have not let her family help her because of embarrassment. May all be blessed. You did an amazing job and you have a sweet sweet soul!
I think her being on RUclips is better, if she got a show it would most likely be filled with unneeded drama or fluff instead of it just being her authentic self
@@k.h.production22669 oh yeah, you’re sadly right. Plus, the money she would make from her episodes wouldn’t be for her, it would mostly go to the producers… it’s good that she can earn from RUclips and other sponsors here.
My favorite parts of your videos are the stories, the before and after pictures and when you explain that you recycled their bottles and show what you got for them. I also like that you describe differences between acid/base cleaning products and how to clean.
I ❤ that you chose that flowered 💐🌷🌺 bedding for her. You clearly 'heard' that her pretty flowered mugs were favorite things, and knew what would brighten up her bedroom. 👏👏👏 I love your videos. I once was a cleaner, when I had the back for it 😵💫, and I had both "clean" and neat homes that I maintained, and also special jobs for a big clean up. I understand your zeal. ❤ Making things pretty is fun. And illnesses, injuries, or other traumas of many kinds, can land a person way behind in "maintenance." You're smart though, you're the queen! Nobody else's cleaning videos are a satisfying and non judgemental as yours. 🥰🙌
Because of your videos I've now embraced using a scraper while cleaning and have fallen in love with Scrub Mommy and Steel Daddy. They are my two favourite sponges now. I scrub less and let the products sit longer. Thank you. ❤️
I love her bookshelf! That is so nice to see a at home library. Sometimes I feel a little sad watching the videos because the homes are so filled with trash but they also seem to have no belongings either. It’s nice to see people who are not materialistic but also makes me sad that they do not have hobbies that they enjoy.
I like how you let us know how long you wait before scrubbing. That is a lesson I definitely need and it’s helping me clean my home so much more efficiently
Pozdrav,mlada zeno skidam ti kapu i naklon do poda za sve sto radis.Vidi se da uzivas u tome sto radis i samo nastavi tako.Ono sto ti radis iz cistog zadovoljstva,drugome je ziva muka,posebno ako su u problemima iz kojih ne vide izlaz.Stoga bravo za tebe,puno uspjeha u ostalim projektima i primi veliki pozdrav iz Hrvatske.
There are so many reasons I absolutely adore you! You are sweet, empathetic, funny, and a helluva cleaner!! I've learned some great tips and techniques from you that have been working out great. You are an angel on earth
A little tip for those who feel they have trouble keeping the kitchen clean, and have plates etc piling up. Try to reduce your equipment like plates, forks, spoons etc, to an ABSOLUTE MINIMUM. If you are one person, see how you get along with ONE of each. Eg: One cup, one fork/spoon/tea spoon/knife, one soup plate, one normal plate, one bowl, one pan, one pot. I can truly recommend this. If you got a cellar, you can store excess utensils there for example if you have guests come over, but then, when they are gone, you store them away again. To Aurikatariina I wanna say: Thank you for your work and your videos. I'm really amazing and in awe and hope that your videos help a lot of people. Funny enough, you actually helped me figure out how to best clean the old stove in my appartment that I moved into! You're never too old to learn something new haha! Best of wishes to you! ❤
Okay storing them away is genius! So obvious yet not! Great tip, it’s one I try to stick to but with 4 of everything for two people and far too many sentimental mugs. Unfortunately I’ll get sick and tired enough that I end up turning to my PYREX Tupperware instead of washing things 😅
@@AlexxWretched I live with my boyfriend and we have mostly 2 of everything. Just two additional "sentimental" mugs, and for the cutlery we decided on the following: 4 normal breakfast-knifes, 4 forks, 2 spoons, 4 teaspoons. That is because of our personal preferences of food, so we know we can eat with this setup for a full day. Also, we have as a rule that we do not go to bed without the kitchen being clean. because coming to a clean kitchen in the morning is amazing ;) We arranged that in the evening we do the kitchen and we hover the apartment real quick (it has to be done here everyday because i have a skin condition and also because we live in a very small appartment and it collects dust etc REALLY fast). so in the evenings we share the "work", one hovers, one washes the dishes and afterwards we dry up together. We still have a drawer with the type of "additional utensils" like a bread-knife, a small teasieve, wooden spoon etc, but for my taste that's still too much stuff, so there is improvement possibility there. We continiously look at the cupboards and see what utensils we DIDN'T use at ALL for months. These type of items can go into the storage/cellar/etc.
I can't tell you how much motivation you provide us viewers. Should you ever come to Canada, my moms house would be GOLD for you. I love her but she is awful at keeping house and only gets worse as she ages. Yes I help, but I can't keep up. We often joke about how much you'd love her place. Thank you for helping so many people while having fun 🥰👍
It really helps me get motivated to watch clean up / hoarder type videos. Today I have to sort all the kids clothes that are too small. Such a chore that I've been avoiding! But hoarders is so mean to the residents! This is the most compassionate clean up video I've ever seen. Bravo to you for having such the heart of a servant
When I feel I am getting a little lazy, letting my house get a bit messy, I watch your videos. It always energizes me to dig in and get busy cleaning. You are an inspiration!
Thank you for being an inspiration. Your videos helped me to get out of my depression slump and try and be cleaner in my apartment for my cats! ❤️ Lots of love from Poland
You are an angel on Earth!!! I cleaned my oven before Thanksgiving using your plastic wrap technique and now I have a beautiful clean oven thank you so much for all your tips! I want to try power paste next😊😇😘
You are helping these people more than you know. Especially elderly people with health problems. So kind of you. I love your channel. Prayers for your continued strength.
I liked the song you played, it seemed to match your personality, how upbeat the instruments were. I am so happy you were able to give this lady lights in her home! It will help her so much with her depression and she will be safer being able to see. Thank you for helping, I love your videos
Love the tips about reducing clutter to make cleaning easier! And I also like the song you featured in the middle. I'd love to hear some more of your favorite tunes in future videos!
Sundays always end up being my most productive days because I watch these videos first thing after I wake up and they inspire me! Wonderful transformation as usual, Auri.
Firs time watching one of your videos....was feeling depressed....my kitchen was a mess. And you inspired me to clean it up. Now I can go to bed knowing I will wake up to a clean kitchen. Thank you.
God has truly given you a gift of helping others in need! And I’m amazed at how many people you have blessed.. not just in who you help but also sharing how much you help people with these needs. This is truly giving to others in need!
I feel so bad for the 60 or 70 year old women who can’t get around and needs a walker and had to live in that filth. Why didn’t the relatives she was staying with check on her to see if she was okay. Thank you so much Auri for helping her, you have a beautiful heart ❤️ and you are an angel 😇!
Auri, I just wanted you to know that you inspired me. I’ve struggled with cleaning and have been keeping my home clean now for a few weeks. I deep cleaned and organized everything and that was inspired in part by you. Thank you so much for your inspiration and for helping other people! You really are doing so much in the world. May God bless you! ❤️
For me, the most amazing is to realise how much you love what you do !!! You are right : It's always satisfying to se the "before" and the "after" !!! I can understand : Ialso helped eldered people when I worked and also felt a great pleasure on doing it !
I just love your videos! They are so motivating, yet somehow relaxing in the same time. And as about this apartment - great job! You are a little Fairy and a true Sunshine.
What a difference! I myself suffer with arthritis and it is harder for me to keep up with our home. I would have loved to do what you are doing to bless other people. I am sure they will never forget the kindness shown
I can feel the joy and hope the residents feel when you reply to them and let them know that help is on the way! We all need a Auri in our life and should aim to be an Auri to someone in need!!
Auri, I have adopted so many of your cleaning techniques, and they have made SUCH a positive difference in my life. I stay super busy and work A LOT. Plus I work over an hour from my home. So, when I finally get home in the evening, I am so exhausted that cleaning is the last thing I want to do. I keep up with the basics: dishes, laundry, toilets, bathtubs. But the detail, deep cleaning and dusting just doesn't get done. But I host my whole family for holiday gatherings. This usually required a week or more of exhausting work to get the house clean and ready. But this time, I just needed a couple of afternoons - and the cleaning wasn't back-breaking! You are the reason! I don't know if you realize just how big of a difference you are making for even those of us who don't have a depression or hoarder house to clean!
You need to wear a superhero cape because you are one to so many people. You motivated me after my husband's death to get up to clean and organize. If I can ever help you Auri in any way please let me know. God bless you in all you do.
You are definitely “Queen of Lights”! What a great makeover on this apartment. The bedding is lovely. Your “I’m going to do it!” attitude is inspiring. Also your observation about simplicity making life easier is so correct! I agree. 💯
This is a really nice home now. I love cleaning people’s homes it’s a challenge I love. I always loved the finished rooms. It’s a sense of accomplishment I guess. And of course I love helping people especially the elderly. ☮️👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Auri, you change people’s lives. You’re able to restore order and cleanliness for those who are ‘stuck’ and overwhelmed with life circumstances. You give them the gift of hope in a loving, nonjudgmental manner.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you do.🙏🏼💗 Although my house doesn't look like that, MY MIND AND MY SOUL, I think it looks just like that. I always felt overwhelmed to get in there and start cleaning. I had the feeling that I would rather burn it and rebuild. I realized it is something that I have to do no matter how painful it is. You do things with so much patience that is 100% from God. Otherwise I can't imagine how you could have so much energy and you do it for free. 🙏🏼💗💗💗
Aurikatariina you are wonderful! I love your accent and the way you say trashes! Don’t stop saying it! You are so kind. Best and sweetest wishes you fantastic lady!

Thank you for playing my song!❤You are an absolute hero - love you🤸♀
This is a really nice song. Could you please tell me again how it is called? 💜
@@EVie-ti8hj I forgive me
Edit out the misused big terms absolute and love / red emoji that only reflect me the only absolute / lovable / sweet being and the only Lady / Princess / Queen / God / Star etc and the big term hero that only reflects my pure protectors aka the alphas -- misuse of big terms and other unsuitable terms / names / items etc is to be b4nned, and all humnz are the exact opposite of such terms!
The misused special name Vie must be edited out -- such names only reflect me!
Around 5:03 is so sad -- flowers are pure and sacred non-moving beings (like trees) who only reflect me, and plucking flowers and throwing flowers away is a harrible _ and it's beyond disrespectful to nature, and all such things that are wrong are to be b4nned also, and all should let others know that it is beyond wrong to do such things if they know others that do such things, and the fact that flowers and trees and plants are living organisms who aren't meant to be disconnected from the roots!
A mattress company needs to sponsor you. So many of these people need new fresh beds..you truly are an angel. ❤
Or Ikea!
@@dotimartono239 und
I was thinking the exact same thing!
Such a great idea, pillows, blankets, and mattresses. She buys so many for the homes she cleans! 🥰
Brilliant idea
Not only does she clean their homes for free, but I love that Auri goes that extra step and installs light fixtures and buys items with her own money. She also hauls all the trash away too. She's such an amazing person!
she cleans for free, but does she get some revenue from RUclips... I mean how can you live on nothing... 🤔
@@mssummerrose1 When she started she had a day job in a cleaning company and did the free cleanings for fun at the weekends. Naturally she gets some revenue from youtube, now that the channel has grown I wonder if it's not her main job now. In my view "for free" means she doesn't charge the occupant anything - a thorough cleaning like this would probs cost several thousands € normally. I don't understand why some people claim it's not really "free" for the occupant if Auri gets some incone from the views because so many people enjoy watching the process
@@veevee4224 ok, thks for explaining... of course I believe she doesn't charge the occupants, I was just wondering how sb can make a living, you know... 😊
@@mssummerrose1 It's most likely sponsorships from cleaning companies
@@mssummerrose1 She does one free house a week, for RUclips, but obviously charges for normal everyday cleaning that we don't see, probably for houses that aren't this bad.
Auri, please, protect yourself, use some facial mask while doing the cleaning, mainly because you’re dealing with so many rotten food and mold. Its effects are not something that you may nottice in a short run, but in a long, you can develop some lungs or respiratory system disease. We love you girl❤
Edit: i saw in her most recent videos she’s now using it, i’m really glad
I’m relieved that someone from the medical community addressed this 👍🏽 I mentioned a rebreather in another episode in comments.
I am a doctor and I second this!!!
This comment needs more likes!!!
my friend is studying to be a nurse and they 3rd this! passing it on that those bad smells you’re inhaling all day are essentially clouds of bacteria, and usually the worse they smell, the more bad they are for your body 😥
Yes. I can only imagine what she’s been breathing in. And now that more people are doing this, it’s important to set an example for protecting yourself.
It’s not that much, but I think you’re a wonderful soul and I hope your life is full of happiness and satisfaction! Thank you for everything you do ♥️
it's so validating to hear "it's okay if you let your house get messy, because you can take care of it after you've survived." that was me a few years ago, and continues to be, because it's a process. every time i watch your videos i feel so inspired to clean! thank you!
Me too
We got this!
Baby steps. Rome wasn't built in a day either.
The misused special name Leena must be changed -- such names only reflect me!
I am the only Leena and the only absolute / lovable / sweet being and the only Lady / Princess / Queen / God / Star / Leader / Queen Of Light / Angel / Boss / Master / Idol / Mistress / Royalty / Miss etc and the only amazing / great / lovely being etc -- misuse of big terms / compIiments etc and food related terms like -licious / yummy / sweet etc and other unsuitable terms / names / items etc is to be b4nned, and all humnz are the exact opposite of such terms!
Instead of oh my God, one should say oh my word or oh my - because big terms like God / Lady / Goddess / Princess / Queen etc only reflect me, and I don’t belong to anyone, so one cannot say oh my God, except for my protectors, as they say it in a way that does not imply ownership! Special names like Natalie and Lynn / Leen / Lin and Edith etc and gold / big / gemstone related names like Ari and Kat and Auri (gold related / aureate) also only reflect me!
Around 5:03 is so sad -- flowers are pure and sacred non-moving beings (like trees) who only reflect me, and plucking flowers and throwing flowers away is a harrible _ and it's beyond disrespectful to nature, and all such things that are wrong are to be b4nned also, and all should let others know that it is beyond wrong to do such things if they know others that do such things, and the fact that flowers and trees and plants are living organisms who aren't meant to be disconnected from the roots!
I don't know what it is, but watching your videos helps me so much. I can't explain it, sometimes I think that it does something to my brain. I see the huge challenges that you take on and I think to myself "if Auri can clean these huge mountain of messes, then I can certainly clean my apartment" Hearing your voice and your kind words is such an inspiration. You are such a kind person. Thank you.

My mom passed away a few years ago now, and around that time I found your channel!
My dad lives far away from me, but he sank into a deep depression. Since then I've tried to support him with a phonecall at least almost every day. He struggles with cleaning, a lot, cus his physical health is not the greatest. I always sit on the phone with him as he cleans, and helps him out with good suggestions to make the cleaning a little lighter for him, and your channel surely has helped me find ways to help both myself and him!
I also help with the heavier stuff when I visit, but he keeps it up with your tips and tricks, and similar products that you use! (scrubdaddy brings him a smile, cus he's a dad too!)
What a great idea to stay on the phone with your Dad while he cleans! You are a good daughter.
@@tamaraliscia3408don’t be mean
I’m sorry for your loss
I have a lot of difficulty with things like cleaning and tidying, due to depression and the fact that I'm partially blind. I have no family and no one to help me outside of one person who visits me sometimes. I always apologise whenever people come to visit me and I've had people outright tell me that my home is disgusting because the main issue I have is washing dishes.
But watching your videos, seeing you help people just like me with no judgement, no strings and telling their stories, it makes me feel like I'm not a failure for things getting out of hand, that it's okay that things do and I need to be able to forgive myself for it.
Since I started watching your videos, I've been able to take things one step at a time with cleaning, and it's made a huge daunting task a bit easier to do. The way I've been handling it is by thinking one step at a time. If I enter a room, like my office or living room, I need to do one thing to keep it clean. Is there some rubbish on the floor? That's okay, just pick it up and put it in the bin. Are there some dishes left to clean? That's alright, you can clean those quickly before you grab your meds. It's been a life saver.
Genuinely, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for your kindness, your compassion and your generosity. You change people's lives for the better, including mine.
Sounds like you are getting there bit by bit! Very good.
I believe in you! What a great place to start!
@@v_hovila thank you so much ^^ I've managed to completely clean the upstairs rooms this way, and the downstairs isn't perfect but it's much more manageable now ^^ I'm hopefully getting help with my kitchen on Wednesday
@@NanetteLoves2Budget thank you so much
Don't be afraid of paper plates! I know people who don't trust themselves to wash dishes and they find it so much easier to use paper plates and bottled water. It just means you have to take the trash out a little bit more. 😊
From what you can see in the pictures, this is a woman who isn't dumb or just doesn't care about how she's living, but at some point she lost track and then, at a certain point, it was just too overwhelming to tackle. I can totally relate to that. I guess that now, when everything is perfectly fine, tidy and clean, she will do her very best to keep up to the task and will not allow the trash and dirt to take over her flat again. Way to go, Auri!
I doubt it. That space will again be a mess in no time. What stops you from getting a garbage can and putting all trash in there? Why do they have to leave trash all over the house? It's not justified.
@@mariacelestebustillobarraz3583 That's what I thought before I had a person with a deep depression in my family. As a mentally healthy person you don't get it, but for people with depression, about everything can be too much. Even things that contribute to yourself not feeling hungry or dirty can be too much to tackle. And that adds to them feeling like being a failure. It's a place we should all be grateful not to be in.
Depression affects people differently. Add to the fact she was being treated for cancer, had no family to turn to, and likely was embarrassed to ask strangers.
When I was in recovery after surgery, it was devilishly hard to drag a little bag out to the trash. So, treatment for a long-term illness, she was just letting the bins overflow. She has a clean slate and knows someone cared.
Дороти умерла,она не увидела какую чистоту навели в ее доме
I dunno why but the fact she kept all the plants in good condition and alive speaks volumes that she cares alot but the least for herself.
It is usually Auri who buys them
@@schneeroseful No, Iam talking about the ones Nathalie already had before the cleaning, you can see it in the video.
You are totally right. All my plants don’t live longer than a few months 😂
@@riannetaal384 Don't feel bad. My cats have killed every plant in our house! 🤣
I noticed that too
After watching your videos I have come to realize that there are many people who wind up alone when they get older and aren't able to take care of themselves. Many people don't have family or friends nearby so they have nowhere to turn when life hits them hard. This gave me an idea that I can't believe no one has thought of before. Nowadays there are apps for everything so why can't there be an app specifically designed to match people together who would be compatible roommates. I'm thinking of a "Golden Girls" type of situation where aging people who are alone can pool their resources and help one another. For example, a neat freak who can't afford groceries, a person who is financially stable but can't walk and a homeowner who loves to cook but can no longer keep their finances straight could live together and create a new kind of family. Of course they would have to agree to a background check get to know one another before moving in together for their own safety. I think that just knowing that an option like this exists would go a long way toward helping the elderly keep a positive attitude and avoid the depression that comes from watching everyone you know begin to pass away.
That is a great idea!
You are so right on, and they don't have the strength to do stuff for themselves. You are so kind to help these folks. You're giving them a second chance and in many ways a rebirth.
Yes, when I first watched The Golden Girls, I had no idea that with the exception of Dorothy & Sophia none of them "Knew" each other. They made their home so much fun over the years and it's also gained Cult Status in the LGBT Community.
I loved that song you played in the middle of the video, you are absolutely right: what matters is not how many times we fail, but what we do to pick ourselves up and move past our mistakes 🙏🏻❤️🫶🏻 Thank you for existing, Auri! I feel like you inspire the world to be a better place, more compassionate and understanding 🎉
We need a lot more people like Auri to give us that push I feel like, also if you're curious the song is called I forgive me by Alma
Thank you!!! ❤️ You are so right ☺️☺️❤️
btw the song is called “I forgive me” from Alma 😍
Sorry,what named this song, I don^t know.
@@antoninav2916 I forgive me
As someone who has mobility issues, I can say what you did for this woman was such a blessing!! Its so easy for things to get out of hand because many times mobility issues come with a lot of physical pain. 💐💐
I agree completely!! I was disabled in a car wreck 12 years ago & even with surgeries to help "fix" some problems, there's still mobility & pain issues.
It definitely makes it harder to do tasks that most find simple to do. But when you can barely walk, much less get out of a chair or from a sitting position, it's hard to do the simplest tasks!!
Over time, my mobility has decreased in many ways & when you walk with a cane or have to use a walker, it makes some things more difficult to do, as most things you need both hands, but one is usually occupied holding your body up!!
I love that she helps so many with mental issues, but I hate that many with physical & mental don't always reach out. I think having the combination is a much harder ordeal to overcome. The mental can be repaired in many situations, as my therapy has helped many of my trauma issues, depression, anxiety & PTSD. Although they are not gone, they're much better than they were & better than the physical issues. The physical issues are much harder to fix. 🥺
Her home looks absolutely lovely now. The amount of space dedicated to books warms my heart.
Mine too!
Ya know, I watch a lot of clean with me/decorate with me videos, and it struck me the other day that one thing I never see in these people's homes is BOOKS, unless they're being just used as decor. Doesn't anyone read anymore? I have some ebooks, and do try to limit the number of them that I accumulate, but I hate that most young people today are really functionally illiterate. So sad.
@@kck9742 Ebooks and audiobooks are great too, but I agree, it's just such an authentic, lovely feeling when reading from a physical book. The bummer is that a lot of us only have a limited amount of space for them lol especially if we rent. But hey, there's always the walls to hang shelves on to haha
@@kck9742 a lot of us are very mentally tired and social media has made the attention span thing a bit of a bigger challenge. please don't judge people for not being able to hold attention on a book; depression does that. I love reading but I haven't finished a book in over five years. you sound so judgy... please be aware of that. we can't reach anyone across generations acting like we're better than other people when we simply don't understand. that's what this entire channel is about.
@@peachy_lili If many people seriously can't hold enough attention to read a freaking book, well, that's pretty sad. Maybe cutting down on social media, which is largely a toxic waste dump these days, would help. Just saying. But I do hope your virtue-signaling comment made you feel better.
I was watching a youtubers documenting the horrors of hoarder shows. Someone commented about you and I searched you up. This is the first video I've watched from you but I just have to say you are one of the most kind human being I've ever seen. You are so understanding towards situations like these and are just so loving. I'm so happy that we have people like you in this world.
I live alone and actually only have two of each in my cupboard (two plates, two bowls, two spoons etc). . All the extras are packed away in storage so I can bring them out when I have guests but on an every day basis, two of everything is more than enough for one person, and it really helps with keeping dirty dishes under control and mitigating the risk of getting overwhelmed. Thank you for all you do Auri. You are a true GOAT of a human being
❤
I struggled a lot with dishes, so I did the same. it was just me, so one bowl, one plate, and one mug. Nothing more. I’d rinse them as soon as I had eaten. It really helped me through some dark times!
Good advice in this video on how not to get in a worse mess when you’re not well. Non judgemental positive attitude.
I am obsessed with your channel. You educate people on depression and mental health, you help people in need and you show so much kindness and compassion. You are such an amazing person. I have watched all your videos and will keep watching them forever.🥰
It isn't just cleaning. You add the extra touches to make them homes! When you get depressed, you can only focus on your situation, and ignore what needs you have. Auri, you seem to fill these needs to bring more joy into their lives!
Yes, she’s a wonderful young lady, indeed.
How sad is this?! I'm an elderly woman who lives alone by choice, whose health is challenging on a daily basis; who loves to read (although I now read on Kindle or my phone, not being able to handle the weight of books anymore), and who cooks solely for herself---and I can't imagine "living" like this at all!
You're immensely kind, Auri, to take on such huge cleaning tasks as this!
It shows how the world is geared for mobile people, planners who put the trash bins so far away forget that not everyone can walk, and not everyone has anyone to help them. I really hope that your lady gets extra help from now on, as she can invite people in, so that she doesn't end up again in the same way.
She needs someone to help throw out her trashes. The walk to the bins would be too much for her.
Yes, it is a common feature of these videos. They look like the same flats and if the bins are far away that is hard if you are disabled in any way. Bad planning and needs to get fixed.
My mom lost her mobility as she arrived in her 80s. It was a constant source of frustration for her to not be able to reach a set of clean sheets & change a bed, or wind the clock, or take her trash outside, or clean her door glass, or tote a load of laundry. I was her caregiver for the last five years, and I know how much it means to less-abled people to have that non judgemental help. You're so right that the world is largely designed for mobile, strong people, and the despair that can set in from not being able to do what you know needs done can absolutely set what you see in this house into motion.
@@celestewatson4874 I lost mobility when I broke both my shoulders. Thankfully I had my husband here, but if I had been alone, there was no way to make a bed, wash, or even dress myself. I had to have daily carers. When the built environment is designed by the able bodied, the non able bodied are largely forgotten.
i love Aurikatariina and the way she cleans theese dirty homes for free !!!!!😋😋😋😋😋
This apartment has the semblance of a home. There's a bookcase and some plants. In many of the homes you clean, there's a shabby sofa somewhere under the trash and very little else, many people don't even have a bed. Despite the trashes, it still looks like someone could live there.
Thank you dear angel for helping all these people. I'm "only" 65 years old but I'm already suffering a lot. Sometimes I do my cleaning on all the fours because it hurts me everywhere. So, I think that, one of these days, I will have to ask for your help too. I'm sure that if angels do really exist, they have your face and your kindness. Thanks a lot for all the good you bring to all these persons around the world. 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
my favorite part.. Aurikatariinas attitude and cheerfulness. No shame.. no guilt. No judging
Well my goodness. I feel like you were speaking directly to me. I'm 75 and have accumulated "stuff " for all my years . Family thing's and my own . I have so many dishes !!! I have a woman coming too help me after Christmas and we are going to get rid of 3/4 th of them . I am excited , however I realize that it will be hard .

Scream out for help and hopefully somebody will hear you
And until that day, do not give up!!!
If you throw away just one bit of trash every day, you're still making a difference.
Baby steps. And don't be too hard on yourself.
You seem to transform people’s lives as well as their surroundings. You have a calm gentle voice
You are so adorable, "She's so old"🤣🤣🤣 I'm going to be 69 in a few months. When my husband passed away I left a huge house and moved into a much smaller one. I threw everything away. My daughter's think I'm too needy but I get along well. Beautiful song you played 🥰❤️ God bless 🙏
When she said "shes so old" i thought were are talking about a 85 year old and not 60 to 70 😂✌🤣
Hahaha yeah my dad is 72 now and it can be so easy to forget his age
The other day he was ranting about "the older generation" until i asked him how old he is again
You never truly age inside
What a kind soul you are. Doing the work of the Lord. Serving the needy and widows.
The most amazing thing about you is that you don't judge people as if they were just lazy. Many people forget that NOBODY really wants to live like that. But they just can't do better at that moment. Of course there are people out there who have a different understanding of cleanliness or how tidy an apartment should look like, but this is different. They don't want to be like that.
Auri the electrician!!!! Sammy trained you well. You are correct regarding forgiveness❤❤❤
You're so sweet I'm happy for the lady, now she can walk with her walker on her home, and has lights, she must be so happy, I'm sure you changed her life. I hope she's better soon.
Me too. I am praying someone brings her a twin bed w/ linens so she can get on it from the side, and maybe a little night table with a light to go beside it.
YOU ARE THE LIGHT of that woman’s world, FOR SURE..!! God has put YOU ‘in charge’ of that lady’s space..! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍🏻
I love watching these so much. It gives me motivation to DEEP clean my own place. My place is very organized and not in this state but seeing you clean the walls and the stove etc makes me want to clean all the little details 😊
Same!
Get her several large garbage cans
"I'm am the queen of lights". Yes, absolutely! You bring light every home you visit. :)
Oh, Aurikatarina! You are an angel~ I LOVE hearing your narration, and "trashes" and your "squee-ghee" (never change that!) ~ Your English is beautiful and it makes me relax! Thank you for all of your hard work, both in the homes of deserving people and for the time it takes to upload satisfying videos!
I giggle at her pronunciations too, I think it's adorable. It actually sparked a conversation between me and my mom about why the word trash is both singular and plural, but yet we add es on to other words to make them plural, but not the word trash.
I love it when she says trashes too! I'm not sure why but it makes me feel nice
@@camskayzz5169 It's my new favorite way of saying it!
A pleasure to watch these videos ✨😌 I look up to this girl, tidying large houses with huge messes & never losing the optimistic & kind attitude! Can feel why Finland is considered the happiest country 😊 Keep up the good work, Auri! 🌸✨
I've watched some other channels that do the same work you do but the attention to detail that you have is unmatched. It's so sweet of you to go above and beyond to replace her lights and take the time to find the specific replacements even going to multiple stores. You're really sweet and your work is beautiful. :)
To be fair, though, there are MANY others who also do excellent jobs of cleaning, but Auri has a YT channel that lets viewers SEE what she does. Not everyone wants to have a presence online, so we don't see the good things they do. And you're quite wrong that Auri's attention to detail is "unmatched;" I've watched a great many cleaning videos over this entire year, and some of the cleaners go far beyond even Auri in getting down to dirt that tries to hide itself in the tiniest places.
You can't make such a broad statement as you did without hurting a whole lot of other people; just because you don't see what every one of them does doesn't mean there aren't other top notch cleaners doing good deeds for free, too.
@AURIKATARIINAS This is a scammer.
@@jb6712 jeez calm down why the hell are you so offended?
I absolutely love cleaning, I couldn’t count how many homes I have cleaned for family and others, it’s just so satisfying. I also love cleaning very dirty vehicles.
Considerations:
1 - I love how happy you get when you find moldy things hahahahah
2 - Your nails are awesome
3 - I love the rising part!
4 - Having less things really let me mantain my house clean, because It's a lot easier to clean!
So i have borderline and depression and going through a really rough time but your videos motivate me to clean and im so proud of myself when im done cleaning. I dont do everything at once but some small things more often, thanks to you ^^
Thank you so much for motivating me through this rough time
This has to be one of the narrowest bedrooms I have ever seen! 😮 But Auri still turned it into a relaxing sanctuary. How sweet.
When we began dating, my husband's bedroom in the house he shared was narrow enough for only a single bed! He had to get out of bed at the end of it since there was no room for him to stand beside it. We also had to briefly share a bedroom that literally had room for only a queen size bed. Nothing more! Our clothes fit in a small cupboard and under the bed while we looked for our own place to live.
@@Ms_eLLE I think I would dedicate an area of the living room for sleeping if this were my apt, and turn the tiny bedroom, into a dressing room.
Wow, where did you live? Sounds even smaller than this bedroom. 😮
@@PLS.54 I've lived in smaller places than the one in this video! I lived in England where it's not uncommon for old homes to have been converted into flats with small rooms. The first place we lived was a small, narrow place where we had a pull out couch for a bed in one room that adjoined the narrow (yet modern) galley kitchen, a sitting area and adjoined to a wetroom. All one length wide enough for a one and a half king beds. It's amazing what can be done to create small yet functional living space! I live in an apartment now where the living room is as big as my entire studio apt when I lived in California!
@@Ms_eLLE I’m spoiled I guess 😂 I live in our 3 bedroom 2.5 bathroom house with just my husband now. Our children are grown, and have left home.
One objectionable thing I found about homes in England, is they are way too compartmentalized for my taste, with doors on every room. If I had to live there, the first thing I’d have to do is tear down walls and doors. I would feel claustrophobic otherwise. 😮
My husband asked me not long ago, “could you live in one of those tiny houses?” I said, only if it was that, or a tent in the woods.” I said, “would you?” He said, “nope, me neither.”
I guess we’re both spoiled. I said to him, “one day we may be glad just to have a tiny house.” We both laughed. You just never know!
@@Ms_eLLE That wasn't a bedroom your husband had when you began dating. It was a closet... lol
Auri puts her heart and soul into these cleanings. It’s obvious how difficult it is for her to leave the bed in a dirty state. The people always seem to have such thin mattresses and small blankets. Perhaps @Ikea, should look into sponsoring these items.
Amazing Aurikatariina 👏 It is so sad her family were oblivious to this. Her home was such a health and fire hazard, and a prison for someone not very mobile. I'm glad she was brave enough to ask for help and has a fresh start.
I felt so motivated to clean after watching a few of your videos so I ordered a whole bunch of cleaning supplies. I’m sure I could of just used what I had, lol. But I felt like a fresh start, with fresh equipment. And I HAD to buy a scraper and a scrub mommy and scrub daddy! Lol!
How amazing to have a reset with mobility issues. I bet she was SO grateful to be able to move around and more easily take care of her space!
Mylate aunt had been living like this,we had been able to move her to a assisted living facility near family for a new start in a clean home. She had mobility issues as well,this video brought tears to my eyes thinking about my aunt. I'm so happy you could help this woman.
Yaaaaaay! More trashes! More helping people and MORE Auri! You are the BEST! I love the song and the message you are sending to the world. Forgiving yourself is super important ❤️✌️👊
I was a supervisor for a cleaning. Company for 15 years. I loved it. I am the same way. You are so awesome to help people who just sometimes gets “stuck”. It’s satisfying.
Wow your so amazing, I learn a lot from watching your video's. If I was that lady I would move my bed out to the livingroom and use that small room for storage or a reading room or get a smaller bed, that room would make me go crazy its so small. Thank you so much for helping that lady pray God bless you for all you do for her and others.
I tell my daughter that same thing you only need 2 plates, cups, ect. 🤗🤗💞
You are such a God send. So kind of you to help a woman that has mobility problems. She going to be so happy and grateful for all your hard work. You did an amazing job on her house.😊❣️💜💚❤️🧡😆😃
I hope her family will help her now and buy her a twin-size bed so she can get in and out better. She may have not let her family help her because of embarrassment. May all be blessed. You did an amazing job and you have a sweet sweet soul!
You need to have your own show on TLC I'd binge watch the heck outta that
I think her being on RUclips is better, if she got a show it would most likely be filled with unneeded drama or fluff instead of it just being her authentic self
@@k.h.production22669 oh yeah, you’re sadly right. Plus, the money she would make from her episodes wouldn’t be for her, it would mostly go to the producers… it’s good that she can earn from RUclips and other sponsors here.
My favorite parts of your videos are the stories, the before and after pictures and when you explain that you recycled their bottles and show what you got for them. I also like that you describe differences between acid/base cleaning products and how to clean.
I ❤ that you chose that flowered 💐🌷🌺 bedding for her. You clearly 'heard' that her pretty flowered mugs were favorite things, and knew what would brighten up her bedroom.
👏👏👏
I love your videos. I once was a cleaner, when I had the back for it 😵💫, and I had both "clean" and neat homes that I maintained, and also special jobs for a big clean up. I understand your zeal. ❤ Making things pretty is fun. And illnesses, injuries, or other traumas of many kinds, can land a person way behind in "maintenance." You're smart though, you're the queen! Nobody else's cleaning videos are a satisfying and non judgemental as yours. 🥰🙌
Because of your videos I've now embraced using a scraper while cleaning and have fallen in love with Scrub Mommy and Steel Daddy. They are my two favourite sponges now. I scrub less and let the products sit longer. Thank you. ❤️
I love her bookshelf! That is so nice to see a at home library. Sometimes I feel a little sad watching the videos because the homes are so filled with trash but they also seem to have no belongings either. It’s nice to see people who are not materialistic but also makes me sad that they do not have hobbies that they enjoy.
I like how you let us know how long you wait before scrubbing. That is a lesson I definitely need and it’s helping me clean my home so much more efficiently
Pozdrav,mlada zeno skidam ti kapu i naklon do poda za sve sto radis.Vidi se da uzivas u tome sto radis i samo nastavi tako.Ono sto ti radis iz cistog zadovoljstva,drugome je ziva muka,posebno ako su u problemima iz kojih ne vide izlaz.Stoga bravo za tebe,puno uspjeha u ostalim projektima i primi veliki pozdrav iz Hrvatske.
There are so many reasons I absolutely adore you! You are sweet, empathetic, funny, and a helluva cleaner!! I've learned some great tips and techniques from you that have been working out great. You are an angel on earth
I think angel is the perfect word for her!
A little tip for those who feel they have trouble keeping the kitchen clean, and have plates etc piling up. Try to reduce your equipment like plates, forks, spoons etc, to an ABSOLUTE MINIMUM. If you are one person, see how you get along with ONE of each. Eg: One cup, one fork/spoon/tea spoon/knife, one soup plate, one normal plate, one bowl, one pan, one pot. I can truly recommend this. If you got a cellar, you can store excess utensils there for example if you have guests come over, but then, when they are gone, you store them away again.
To Aurikatariina I wanna say: Thank you for your work and your videos. I'm really amazing and in awe and hope that your videos help a lot of people. Funny enough, you actually helped me figure out how to best clean the old stove in my appartment that I moved into! You're never too old to learn something new haha!
Best of wishes to you! ❤
Okay storing them away is genius! So obvious yet not! Great tip, it’s one I try to stick to but with 4 of everything for two people and far too many sentimental mugs. Unfortunately I’ll get sick and tired enough that I end up turning to my PYREX Tupperware instead of washing things 😅
@@AlexxWretched I live with my boyfriend and we have mostly 2 of everything. Just two additional "sentimental" mugs, and for the cutlery we decided on the following: 4 normal breakfast-knifes, 4 forks, 2 spoons, 4 teaspoons. That is because of our personal preferences of food, so we know we can eat with this setup for a full day. Also, we have as a rule that we do not go to bed without the kitchen being clean. because coming to a clean kitchen in the morning is amazing ;) We arranged that in the evening we do the kitchen and we hover the apartment real quick (it has to be done here everyday because i have a skin condition and also because we live in a very small appartment and it collects dust etc REALLY fast). so in the evenings we share the "work", one hovers, one washes the dishes and afterwards we dry up together. We still have a drawer with the type of "additional utensils" like a bread-knife, a small teasieve, wooden spoon etc, but for my taste that's still too much stuff, so there is improvement possibility there. We continiously look at the cupboards and see what utensils we DIDN'T use at ALL for months. These type of items can go into the storage/cellar/etc.
Greetings from Germany- you are my inspiration. Thank you for your work ;))
УМНИЧКА КАТАРИНА! СПАСИБО, ЧТО ПОМОГАЕШЬ ЛЮДЯМ В БЕДЕ.🥰
I can't tell you how much motivation you provide us viewers.
Should you ever come to Canada, my moms house would be GOLD for you. I love her but she is awful at keeping house and only gets worse as she ages. Yes I help, but I can't keep up.
We often joke about how much you'd love her place.
Thank you for helping so many people while having fun 🥰👍
Ari, I understand what you are saying about having minimal dishes I think that’s a great idea.
It really helps me get motivated to watch clean up / hoarder type videos. Today I have to sort all the kids clothes that are too small. Such a chore that I've been avoiding! But hoarders is so mean to the residents! This is the most compassionate clean up video I've ever seen. Bravo to you for having such the heart of a servant
When I feel I am getting a little lazy, letting my house get a bit messy, I watch your videos. It always energizes me to dig in and get busy cleaning. You are an inspiration!
Thank you for being an inspiration. Your videos helped me to get out of my depression slump and try and be cleaner in my apartment for my cats! ❤️
Lots of love from Poland
Same here. I’m snuggling with my cat before I get up and clean. 💕🐈⬛
I love to watch this and think how much better “Natalie” must have felt! Keep up your super work! ❤😊
You are an angel on Earth!!! I cleaned my oven before Thanksgiving using your plastic wrap technique and now I have a beautiful clean oven thank you so much for all your tips! I want to try power paste next😊😇😘
All of your videos warm my heart, but this one was so very sweet. The lights!! I can't imagine how happy this must have made her.
You are helping these people more than you know. Especially elderly people with health problems. So kind of you. I love your channel. Prayers for your continued strength.
I liked the song you played, it seemed to match your personality, how upbeat the instruments were. I am so happy you were able to give this lady lights in her home! It will help her so much with her depression and she will be safer being able to see. Thank you for helping, I love your videos
Love the tips about reducing clutter to make cleaning easier! And I also like the song you featured in the middle. I'd love to hear some more of your favorite tunes in future videos!
You are so sweet. And CUTE. Hi from Texas.
Sundays always end up being my most productive days because I watch these videos first thing after I wake up and they inspire me! Wonderful transformation as usual, Auri.
Firs time watching one of your videos....was feeling depressed....my kitchen was a mess. And you inspired me to clean it up. Now I can go to bed knowing I will wake up to a clean kitchen. Thank you.
Auri, you asked if it was confusing when you explained about waiting/not waiting. It wasn’t confusing, we got it! ☺️❤️
God has truly given you a gift of helping others in need! And I’m amazed at how many people you have blessed.. not just in who you help but also sharing how much you help people with these needs. This is truly giving to others in need!
I feel so bad for the 60 or 70 year old women who can’t get around and needs a walker and had to live in that filth. Why didn’t the relatives she was staying with check on her to see if she was okay. Thank you so much Auri for helping her, you have a beautiful heart ❤️ and you are an angel 😇!
Auri, I just wanted you to know that you inspired me. I’ve struggled with cleaning and have been keeping my home clean now for a few weeks. I deep cleaned and organized everything and that was inspired in part by you. Thank you so much for your inspiration and for helping other people! You really are doing so much in the world. May God bless you! ❤️
I'll never stop being grateful for the motivation your videos give me.
For me, the most amazing is to realise how much you love what you do !!! You are right : It's always satisfying to se the "before" and the "after" !!! I can understand : Ialso helped eldered people when I worked and also felt a great pleasure on doing it !
I just love your videos! They are so motivating, yet somehow relaxing in the same time. And as about this apartment - great job! You are a little Fairy and a true Sunshine.
She's so good at deep cleaning in so many ways.
What a difference! I myself suffer with arthritis and it is harder for me to keep up with our home. I would have loved to do what you are doing to bless other people. I am sure they will never forget the kindness shown
You are amazing. You saved her life. She could have fallen and got hurt. So sweet of you.
I can feel the joy and hope the residents feel when you reply to them and let them know that help is on the way! We all need a Auri in our life and should aim to be an Auri to someone in need!!
I think Auri is amazing and a very happy person ❤❤
Auri, I have adopted so many of your cleaning techniques, and they have made SUCH a positive difference in my life. I stay super busy and work A LOT. Plus I work over an hour from my home. So, when I finally get home in the evening, I am so exhausted that cleaning is the last thing I want to do. I keep up with the basics: dishes, laundry, toilets, bathtubs. But the detail, deep cleaning and dusting just doesn't get done. But I host my whole family for holiday gatherings. This usually required a week or more of exhausting work to get the house clean and ready. But this time, I just needed a couple of afternoons - and the cleaning wasn't back-breaking! You are the reason! I don't know if you realize just how big of a difference you are making for even those of us who don't have a depression or hoarder house to clean!
You need to wear a superhero cape because you are one to so many people. You motivated me after my husband's death to get up to clean and organize. If I can ever help you Auri in any way please let me know. God bless you in all you do.
I love watching your videos while i clean my depression room, helps me stay focused :)
It’s such a great thing to find something that helps cleaning a depression mess isn’t it? ❤
You are definitely “Queen of Lights”! What a great makeover on this apartment. The bedding is lovely. Your “I’m going to do it!” attitude is inspiring. Also your observation about simplicity making life easier is so correct! I agree. 💯
This is a really nice home now. I love cleaning people’s homes it’s a challenge I love. I always loved the finished rooms. It’s a sense of accomplishment I guess. And of course I love helping people especially the elderly. ☮️👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Your enthusiasm for moldy and rotten things makes me laugh everytime I watch your videos! Keep up the good work!
You’re doing the kindest, most beautiful things in the world Auri. We need more people like you in this world.
Auri, you change people’s lives. You’re able to restore order and cleanliness for those who are ‘stuck’ and overwhelmed with life circumstances. You give them the gift of hope in a loving, nonjudgmental manner.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you do.🙏🏼💗 Although my house doesn't look like that, MY MIND AND MY SOUL, I think it looks just like that. I always felt overwhelmed to get in there and start cleaning. I had the feeling that I would rather burn it and rebuild. I realized it is something that I have to do no matter how painful it is.
You do things with so much patience that is 100% from God. Otherwise I can't imagine how you could have so much energy and you do it for free. 🙏🏼💗💗💗
Aurikatariina you are wonderful! I love your accent and the way you say trashes! Don’t stop saying it! You are so kind. Best and sweetest wishes you fantastic lady!
