About the Book

'Adam's words are inspiring and important in today's world' - Ben Fogle 'An invitation to slow down' – TJ Power 'A beautiful book' – Joe Sugg What if the life you're chasing… isn't the one you truly want? After losing his father, Adam Lind made a decision that changed everything. He left behind the expected path and spent five years hitchhiking across twenty-six countries - learning from the people who picked him up, sleeping under open skies, and discovering the extraordinary hidden in the everyday. Now, aboard his stubbornly charming narrowboat The Raman Rose, Adam continues that journey on the UK's waterways - and invites us to join him. Blending travel memoir, philosophy and the search for meaning, Floating Home reveals how adventure, community, and compassion can reshape our lives. With humour and heart, Adam shows that happiness isn't found by following the rules - but by choosing your own way, one small brave step at a time. 'Packed with perspective and quiet wisdom' – Stuart Sandeman 'Soulful, sincere, and full of quiet truths' – Joshua Fletcher 'A grounding invitation to live more fully' – Amy Wright 'Honest and tender' – Poppy Okotcha

Review :
Adam's words are truly inspiring and important in today's world, he's a positive role model for young men An invitation to slow down, feel deeply, and live a life full of love. Honest, calming and deeply human. This book invites you to pause, pay attention and reconnect with what matters most. A gentle but grounded reflection on what it means to live well. Soulful, sincere, and full of quiet truths. A beautiful exploration of what it means to heal, grow and live with meaning. Adam writes with a vulnerability that makes you pause, reflect and think about what truly matters to you. A grounding invitation to live more fully, love more deeply and question what really matters. A beautiful book and a refreshing reminder to slow down and savour life. Packed with perspective and quiet wisdom. Floating Home will shift how you see the world and yourself. Honest and tender Adam Lind's book is written with a grace and rhythm every bit as gentle as the waterways he has made his home, but it is also shot through with a fiercely-held mission - that of enabling others to embark on the journey he has made in seeking an alternative life; away from ordinary society but part of another, hidden social world. It is a treasurehouse of wonders, from the interviews with fellow boat-dwellers to his beautiful descriptions of the nature he encounters. As one who was born and grew up on a houseboat on the Thames this love-letter to a way of life resonates utterly. Boat living attracts people from all sorts of backgrounds, rich, poor, artist and inventor. But they are united by one common impulse: the desire to occupy a place outside the stream of normal belonging, where one wakes not to the sound of car horns or refuse lorries but to the whisper of the river or canal, the song of the wind through the trees on the banks, the chatter of waterfowl. It is the perennial impulse that drives people to keep one foot firmly in nature, in a little bit of wilderness, as an antidote to the sometimes stifling effects of a suffocating modernity. And this deep quest is perfectly expressed in Floating Home.
