‘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
