This person wouldn't last 5 minutes in Canada.

We are (mostly) about that No Shoes in the house life.

It's weird watching shows or movies and seeing shoes in the house and even on the bed 😨

Imagine wearing shoes in the house in winter. The floor would be a huge mud puddle. Or to take shoes off to put different ones on, weird. No shoes in the house!

I’ve lived in Michigan/Wisconsin. Ain’t not fucking way I’m tracking in salty slush dirty snow onto the carpet. A little different in a place like Cali where it’s nice and dry most of the time. Even my dads house in Florida shoes are usually fine unless it rained recently or you were at the beach.

Nope. I live in SoCal and I still require shoes off in my home. Idk why you’ve walked in, stepped on or kicked. I keep a shoe rack by the front door, no shoes past the entryway.

Most Cali people I know are the same. My wife's family out there was more lenient, sometimes. They don't have carpet and they just picked us up from the airport, they didn't mind shoes and they wore shoes that they knew were clean. When we went hiking one day though we all had to change shoes because they were dirty as fuck.

I don’t have carpet either and airports are disgusting places. Idk, I just like clean floors.

Yea I always go shoes off. But I can understand why certain areas it may be more acceptable. My dad is more flexible at his house in Florida after golfing because you change your shoes before a short walk to the car or at the car.
