Anna and Kath are a UK couple who work full time in London. In 2016 they downsized their life from a 1-bedroom apartment down to a narrow boat which they live and travel on, full-time, with their 2 cats, Munchkin and Alice.

When their boat is moored, they have access to water and electricity; and when they're cruising the canals of England and the UK, they have solar panels to trickle charge their batteries and keep things like the fridge and TV running.

They have a multi-fuel stove for heat, and an extra radiator in the bedroom although they rarely use it because the stove heats the tiny house so well.

They have a 500 litre water tank for their freshwater needs and are hoping to invest in a composting toilet so they don't have to use chemicals in their current cassette toilet.

Anna and Kath have found that they get to spend more time together, and they spend less money now that they've adopted a simpler, more minimalist lifestyle.

They still work full-time in London but are working to transition to a digital nomad situation with revenue from their YouTube channel, The Narrowboat Experience, by selling Annamarie's paintings, and with support on Patreon. We've included their links below if you'd like to support them:
