Description

'This book shares the lessons I live by daily; training my mind to observe my thoughts, embracing compassion in lifes challenges, and fostering human connection. Many of these insights came from my five-year expedition around the world and time spent living on my boat. I hope these lessons help you begin building a sanctuary for your mind, body, and soul.'

After five years of hitchhiking around the world, Adam Lind longed for a place to settle that would satisfy both his need for stability and his craving for adventure. He found this balance on Britains canal network, where he moved onto a narrowboat, making the waterways his home.

Adam's worldly travels and waterways adventures radically shifted his perspective on life, teaching him invaluable lessons. In this uplifting book, he shares these key principles, from embracing discipline and the importance of rituals, to making the mundane sacred and the art of acceptance, and how we can apply these lessons to our everyday lives.

Sharing not only his own experiences but also those he's met along the way - people who left behind conventional lives on land for the nomadic world of the canals - Floating Home teaches us the importance of living a life of purpose, regardless of where we are.

This profound book will inspire you to seek freedom, joy, and connection, wherever you call home.
