This post has been long overdue, right? I finally got myself to take all the pictures of our small, floating home. In a previous post I explained how the house came to be – but I never got to show you guys what it looked like from the inside. Well, let’s get to it:

The outside: our “yard”, full of small plants and a cozy spot to get that vitamin D going! The “birdie” wind bells is Angus’ favorite thing.

Here we got the living room and the view from the kitchen counter. Everything is mashed up into one big environment since we suffer a bit from the lack of room. Optimizing the use of space is essencial for living like this, and to be honest, I am still learning (so forgive the mess haha). Look at all the toys scattered around!

More pictures of the kitchen, dining space, and the boat navigation area. Can you spot my little sailor?

Last but not least, the bedroom, where I keep the most clutter. I may or may not qualify for that hoarders show (shhhh).

That’s where we live! It’s small but it’s a home, and the best thing is we get to go wherever we like with it. I hope you enjoyed this little tour, and if you’d like to know anything else, just hop in my ask box! See you all soon.

Hello, how is everyone? Today I’m here to talk a little about our small home, the SS Jupiter, as I like to call her. This houseboat has been my faithful companion for over 3 years, way before my boy Angus was even a thought.

I bought the boat structure in a clearance sale from a very shady seller and had to rebuild the house part almost entirely. Thank goodness the engine was in good condition! After a lot of trip to building & construction stores (and a few tears and anger fits), and with the help of Tobias and my dad, we turned a total disaster into this:

As I travelled around, I collected almost all the pieces of furniture and decoration I have. Now, the house is filled to the brim with children’s toys!

This is our home. The scenario is not always the same, but the warm feeling you get when you arrive home is just as a land one. Hope you loved it as much as I do! 

I still want to do a complete tour of the inside, so stay tuned!
