An Inside Look at Life in a House Boat
Today I’ll be sharing a take on tiny home living with a nautical twist- life on houseboats!
Houseboats are becoming popular in cities around the world as an affordable and mobile lifestyle option. Those who choose this method of living are forced to become experts on living with less in small, tight spaces, while conserving power and resources.
What they get in return- no property taxes, low rent, no landscaping, and of course, a water view.
The following 4 Instagram accounts give us an inside look at their adventures living on a houseboat.
