Recipes, small rituals and stories from our little floating home

come aboard

Welcome to
this tiny life

Hey! Thank you for stopping by. We’re Jack and Gabby, and we live in a little floating home nestled in the Oxfordshire countryside.

We share weekly videos that we hope are a little snapshot of the season — with lots of home cooking, foraging, countryside walks, the odd DIY project, trying to grow some of our own food and keeping bees. Little steps towards our own version of the good life.

On this little patch of the internet you’ll find our recipes, guides and store, alongside a few other bits and pieces. We hope you enjoy having a look around.

Coming soon

A new home for our recipes, seasonal guides and other scribbles

We’re just finishing this part of the site — if we’re honest, everything in our life is a bit of a work in progress! This will be a little spot for the recipes we share in our videos, along with seasonal guides and whatever else we feel like writing about.

It’ll be ready soon. In the meantime, do pop your email on our letter list and we’ll drop you a note when it’s ready. Thank you!

We aim to share a new video most weeks — little snapshots of the seasons from our floating home in the English countryside. There’s home cooking, foraging, countryside walks, the odd DIY project, keeping bees and trying to grow some of our own food. Little steps towards our own version of the good life, with the occasional mishap along the way.

Settle · scented candle

The tiny store

We recently launched our very first scented candle to help mark the turn of the season. It’s called SETTLE, because that’s what we hope it helps you do as we head through autumn.

Hand-poured using natural wax and scented with 100% essential oils of sweet orange, lavender and bergamot, it’s quietly uplifting and still wonderfully cosy. The wooden wick crackles gently as it burns, bringing a little warmth and company to an autumn evening.

£36.00 delivery included

For orders, the club, or just to say hello — we read everything, usually with a brew. We’re slower to reply when we’re out on the cut. [Placeholder — replace.]
