Simple living on a narrowboat home in West End London

Рет қаралды 432,050

Emma Freemantle lives in pricey West End London (near Regent's Park), but she could afford to buy her home because she lives aboard what she calls a "floating caravan log cabin". Her home is a narrowboat: boats so narrow they were built in the past few centuries to fit Britain's narrow canals (some are less than 7 feet wide).
Her floating home is part of a community of narrowboats on London's Regents Canal where she has lived for the past 6 years (her sister Victoria helped her buy her boat). All the boats here come with a mooring which is permitted, though as Emma points out there are plenty of boat owners on London's (and Britain's) canals who continuously cruise without a fixed mooring address.
Emma has also made her boat into a floating office where she crafts handmade creations from secondhand and vintage finds for her Worn With Love label (she's also a freelance fashion stylist).
Her liveaboard life may be cheaper than flats in her area, but the lifestyle requires constant maintenance: disposing of toilet waste, filling the water tank, replacing canisters of butane gas and even buying pre-paid cards for electricity. Her daily life may take more work, but Emma sees this as part of what makes it so magical.

I could spend the rest of my life on a narrow boat parked 10 minutes for my favorite city on this planet LONDON. This type of boat would meet all my needs. Emma you have a life style I envy. Your home is beautiful.

I love how eclectic the interior is. It's such a cosy space. It's all anyone really needs. This particular canal is quite wide but in the rest of the country some of the locks, tunnels and bridges are not much bigger than the boat itself hence the limitations on its dimensions. If you have a Dutch barge then large parts of the UK network will be off limits.

Narrow boats were the workhorse of the early part of the industrial revolution. They were a leap advance in transportation in the 1770s, before the expansion of the railway in the 1830s.

She's not a little crazy, she has personality all of her own. Maybe people are so used to the girls of today where they are all fed & lead by fads, trends, fashion, an unhealthy desire for possessions, who have a corrupt financial avarice, beauty that is cosmetics - deep & have no connection to nature, history, culture, art, & indeed life beyond the x-factor. This is someone who has no luxuries, privileges or excess waste, who has learnt to appreciate life unequivocally; at it's most pure with respect for nature, admiration towards the craft of the past, within the realm of society. Glamorous by no means, hardship abound, but the reward of clear thinking pays the wage of introspection that otherwise arrogates freedom from all too many in the world today who capitulate their entire lives to a system & tradition where you do what people expect of you. Never what you want to do. The Government want 2 things from you: To work, & to die. I admire this woman for showing us there is an alternative to slaveship.

@therealKINDLE 10 жыл бұрын

Matt Jarrett I believe I didn't opine "a cheap lifestyle". But "an alternative" to the one that society expects you to follow obsequiously. I have observed how you chose to ignore all the points I highlighted in order to concentrate on money, even though there were no instances where I elaborated on her financial background. Quite frankly It's none of our business! But let me reiterate in laymen terms; This isn't a bourgeois celebrity flexing her indulgences. She's not showing us the value of her jewelry, designer label clothes, or convertible cars. She speaks of cabbage as though it were silk, the girl loves her bed, she demonstrates tepid water drizzling into an obviously small bath tub & claims that the wardrobe is "a good size" when many women today have several wardrobes. Her philosophy is simple to understand & built on the foundations of seeing beyond what money has to offer. "Lets not wish for what we don't need". Far too many can only think in terms of money, because that's what's been bread into you. To wish for the new iPhone5, to re-purchase all your films on Blueray, *Remastered, New Recipe, 3 for £3, Upgrade to...* etc. Financial Status is a very parochial & competitive way of measuring self worth. It's based entirely on accumulation, comparison, & wanting more than your neighbour. As human beings, we want to share our joy, our experiences, ideas, skills, knowledge, artistic liberation & love. But no one wakes up each day willing to share their money far & wide. "Make loads of it, keep it, hoard it, take it for granted that 'money' is all people want in every situation, & despise those that have more." >;-\ It's such an unnatural feeling. And yet our entire world is enslaved to this system. There are so many treasures that may seem small at first, but grow into priceless components of a blissful lifestyle. Unfortunately, your eyes are closed to them with the more money you have. Don't let money blind you. For all the money in the world can't buy a human soul.

People like her who just dive into something they just have desire to do (that's not completely unreasonable) are actually very inspiring.

Candles and clutter make for a cosy environment but you need to take care. I have seen several people die in fires over the years from exactly the way she is living, though normally in houses. A small fire rapidly spreads because of so much potential fuel in close proximity. Fit two or three smoke detectors to give yourself a chance if the worst comes to the worst.

You do not need a 'watch your head' or a 'Danger' sign on every obstacle that poses a threat.

Being on a boat connects you to the world of water and sky and wind and rain unlike any other living space, you feel connected and alive, but it does take work, and you can sink. I would do it again if I could.

"On the water" is something that just gets into a person. My late father had it & I learned a lot. Since it wasn't for me, I was "crew" & when they're serious & industrious, listen carefully, we get to be taken lots of nice places & have good water experiences! A pleasant trade-off. Barge families as workers in France stopped in the '70s but is making a comeback. The children go to boarding school, but that's typical of rural France & for many.

I don’t know where this young lady was educated but, sadly, it seems that her school education didn’t include our social history, the importance of Britain’s canal waterways and their role in the Industrial Revolution. If it did, she’d gain a deeper appreciation of her narrowboat home and its origins. This is only a very brief outline of the canal systems in Britain, and it’s a fascinating part of our history to explore further if you are interested. Narrowboats were originated in the 18th century, during the Industrial Revolution as working boats for use on Britain’s narrow canal waterways to transfer goods. Originally, they were horse-drawn boats, hence why we still refer to the canal-side paths as “tow-paths” even though today’s narrowboats are mostly diesel-powered. During the canals’ working history, people would live and work on the narrowboats as they took their cargoes from one place to another; it was a hard life but whole families were born and raised on the narrowboats, right up to the decline of the canal waterways in the 1950s and early 1960s. Hundreds of miles of canals became derelict. In the 1960s, volunteers of all ages came forward and gave their time to renovate the canal waterways, and volunteers continue to do so. We owe a lot to them (including members of the towpath task-force and the lock keepers) of the Waterway Recovery Group and the Canal & River Trust, who work hard to restore and maintain the canals for other people’s enjoyment, whether that be walking or cycling the tow-paths or enjoying leisure time or living on the canals.

I just love this so much! I wanted to watch more...a day in the life of Emma :) I live in a very small space as well and prefer it that way. I also used to live on my father's boat.
