Floating Home cover

Lessons in finding freedom, fulfilment and joy wherever you are, and what living a life less ordinary can teach us about what it really means to be human, from the hugely popular content creator, Adam Lind AKA @adam.floatinghome

What if the life you’re chasing isn’t the one you actually want?

‘Adam’s words are truly inspiring’ Ben Fogle
‘A beautiful book’ Joe Sugg

After the devastating loss of his father, Adam Lind began asking the questions many of us avoid:
Can you choose to be happy? What does it mean to be free? How do you find real purpose?

His search led to a five-year journey - hitchhiking across twenty-six countries before building a new life on a narrowboat along Britain’s waterways. In Floating Home, Lind blends travel memoir and personal growth to explore how to live with more freedom, meaning and happiness.

Through powerful stories and honest reflection, you’ll discover how to:
- Let go of expectations and live life on your own terms
- Find purpose through connection, simplicity and adventure
- Build a calmer, more intentional and fulfilling life

From the kindness of strangers to the quiet rhythm of life on the water, this is a moving reminder that happiness isn’t something you chase—it’s something you create through how you live each day.

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 -- Julian Dutton, author of Water Gypsies, a history of life on Britain's Rivers & Canals
