Living aboard a canal boat
Many people are leaving dry land behind and living on boats on the UK canal system, and most of them do it because it is the life they choose and love. Living on a canal boat can seem almost idyllic, conjuring up images of brightly painted cosy craft tied up alongside sunny country fields or in handy, friendly, economic city centre marinas. The freedom to move on whenever mood or weather or job may take you. But travel prepared!
