About the book
What begins as an idyllic escape soon reveals the harsh realities of life afloat: frozen pipes, mechanical breakdowns, and the constant challenge of maintaining harmony in extraordinarily close quarters. With warmth and wry humour, Browne captures both the beauty of England's canal network and the everyday chaos of her unconventional household. Her honest account of the highs and lows offers a refreshing antidote to romanticised visions of waterway living, whilst celebrating the resilience and adaptability required to make such an extraordinary lifestyle work.
