The couple ditched their rented £675-a-month home to have 'less responsibility and stress'
A couple quit the "rat race" to live off-grid and travel full time in their boat. Amy Cross, 28, and her partner, Wes Arthur, 30, a designer, were sick of their 40-hour working weeks.
Since moving onto the water, Amy and Wes say they feel "free" - having sailed the length of the UK alongside their Labrador cross, Rufus, and rabbit, Rupert. Amy and Wes stumbled across narrowboats and rented one out for the winter of 2020 to see if it was something they could do full-time. "A lot of people buy a narrowboat and spend years doing it up, but we're not very savvy when it comes to DIY." Amy and Wes say moving onto the boat made them re-evaluate their lives.
Amy said that her family was really supportive of the move but were upset they would see the couple less due to them having to move the boat around.
