Living on a UK Canal Boat: True Costs & Future Plans 🌿

🌿 What It Really Costs to Live on a Canal Boat (UK) | Honest Off-Grid Breakdown + My Future Vision

In this video, I’m breaking down exactly what I spend to live full-time on a narrowboat in the UK, including all-year-round essentials, seasonal shifts, and the hidden costs of keeping a floating home warm, moving, and alive.

🌞 Summer vs ❄️ Winter - the difference is huge when you live this close to nature. From diesel to logs, moorings to maintenance, this is an honest look at what it really takes, financially, practically, and emotionally - to live off-grid on the water.

But this video is also about why I chose this life. About learning to live slower, more sustainably, and more in tune with the natural world. And about where I hope to go from here…

💭 My long-term dream is to create a fully off-grid, eco-aligned community:
A living, breathing space for healing, reconnection, and regenerative living. No fossil fuels. No wasteful systems. Just nature, community, and conscious choice.
