    Alternative dwellings are great when it's your choice to choose to live that way, but do you ever wonder why less of us are able to buy a traditional home?
    The answer simply is currency debasement. The answer more deeply is answered in my new podcast

    I realise that your vlog is geared to a North American audience, however in Australia it is referred to as the bush rather than the jungle. Not a biggie just wanted to let you know. 😊😊

    This is my absolute dream I think. There was a picture book I was fascinated with as a child, called 'Where does the teacher live?' and the teacher lived on a house boat. Considering everything these days, I think this would be an absoloute wonderful calming lifestyle. Congratulations and thank you for the video of your beautiful boat life.

      her grand kids when there for Christmas (summertime in Australia ) slept up on the upper decks in what we call swags, which are bascially waterproof sleeping bags with bug covers (some are more like individual tents beds.. she said she had five out of 17 and there are two bunk beds in the second bedroom.

    This was a great video. I liked when this lady told about fishing out of her window, bringing in the fish, and cooking it up. I would love this as well. My concern would be if it is too cold in the winter or safe during a storm. I hope that she enjoys many more years on her house boat.

      I have a diesel heater which heats the whole boat now…a recent addition…on a swing mooring you just swing around in the wind…the mooring checked every year..so very safe.

      Pauline, Glad to hear this. That is great. Hope you will always enjoy this house boat. It is so nice. I just love it but fishing has always been a thing with me. One of my fondest memories as a child was staying on a house boat for a few days while school was out during the summer.
