Boatlife

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 is an explorer, entrepreneur, and journalist from Hamburg, Germany. In 2020, she embarked on a six-month sailing trip from Germany to Norway above the Arctic Circle. Today she lives and works on her monohull sailboat exploring the world with her boyfriend and terrier.
