Boatlife visually explores a nomadic lifestyle on the water filled with new landscapes, cultural experiences, and endless adventures.

Through photography, illustrated maps, itineraries, and background information, this book will inspire your own adventure, while taking you on a journey across bodies of water from The Americas and Europe, to voyages alongside Scandinavia and the Arctic Circle.

Thanks to the ever growing popularity of alternative living and flexible work schemes, the boat life movement is fast on the rise. Whether it be spending the summer on the Mediterranean or a weekend in the Caribbean, people are choosing to escape their stressful life on land for a simpler and more mindful world on the water.

Katharina Charpian works as a freelance journalist and author for well-known outdoor, travel, interior and lifestyle magazines. The Hamburg native has been living on a 34ft-long boat herself since 2022 and sails around the world with her boyfriend and terrier. Her sailing adventure to the Arctic is part of Boatlife (Midwinter to midsummer to the North Cape”, page 180)
