Cuando era niña, mi mamá ponía mucho estrés en el aseo. Les aseguro que a mi no me gustaba limpiar el cuarto (aunque tenía que hacerlo). Prefería estar al aire libre donde no tenía que pensar en esto.

When I was a child, my mother put a lot of stress on cleanliness. I assure you that I did not like to clean my room (although I had to do it); I preferred to be outside where I did not have to think about this.
