what's up guys welcome to another video
in our channel living hakuna so last
week we actually went to our old house
where we used to live when we had our
conventional lifestyle not in a boat not
in a camper not traveling just in our
house working full-time jobs 95 jobs I
guess it just inspired this video and
that's why we want to tell you a bit of
the difference between living in a house
and actually living on a boat
I'm Adria that's Alejo and those are
bears Ozzie and echo we left the
corporate world in Miami to become
digital nomads and chase the wind
kiteboarding join us as we sell an
adventure in our dream home hakuna
anthem OC echo
it's been a while since we come to our
old house where we used to live when we
had a conventional life so we're the
reason why we're here is because we
finally rented it for another year
hopefully it's going to be rented for
like three or five years hopefully this
tenant stayed for a long time it's good
to be here it just kind of reminds us
when we used to live here it's a really
special house I love it so how do you
feel back home but well not home because
it's not home anymore but how are you
feeling your house so I'm gonna give you
guys a quick walkthrough of our house
what where we used to live and basically
what's three years ago tell you the
story as we walked through it was three
years ago
since we left the house at first we went
to Dominican Republic we lived there for
three months and we rented the house of
Airbnb this is the kitchen and then we
decided to rent it for good and we went
on our little camper which Alejo built
himself so that was another year this is
the main room and now we're renting it
for another year because not we live on
our book what are the biggest
differences between living in a house
and living in a boat and it's for us is
that
here in the house we had this huge
backyard for the dog so we could just
let him out we didn't have to worry
about walking them if we didn't have to
or if we didn't want to and they could
just be out there I am artists shoot
dogs get out of the house I'm Mar de los
perros easily around Stan a little old
fence a cozy Jesse we are queer foreca
come echo come come
yeah they got out go
so I was taking off the shutters just
our renting is so the new tenants coming
in and we need to make sure that the
house looks good the shutters are fine
that everything looks good but I saw I
was saying one of the biggest
differences between living in a house
and living in a boat is that we can just
leave the dogs outside into housing we
don't have to worry about walking them
versus living on a boat we actually have
to you know take the dinghy go out and
walk them go to land because we can't
you know they need to get their daily
exercise versus just having them in the
backyard right the other difference is
that in a house you have your car parked
right outside you can just walk outside
you have your car you can go anywhere in
a boat it's a bit more complicated you
actually have to take the dinghy go to
land and find transportation if you
don't have a car like us that makes a
bit of a difference in a house you don't
have to worry about spending too much
water or spending too much electricity
you don't care about you know washing
dishes you can just run there's no you
can just run the water and wash dishes
you don't care how long it takes you
it's not something that you have to keep
in mind here on the boat we have to
watch how how much water we use because
I mean we're not always connected to
water we have to make our own water so
that's one of the big difference so no
more like long showers or anything or
washing the dishes we have to like
that's wash the dishes pretty carefully
and also with the bathrooms we have like
black water tanks so we have to like
what those
also if you're cooking you know you
don't really worry about electricity
versus in a house I'm sorry versus in a
boat
you're always thinking that you need a
food fast if you have an electric
cooktop like we do you have to worry
about your power consumption yeah in a
boat we actually have to go on our
computer every single time to make sure
that our battery still has enough energy
to keep using whether it's a store the
stove whether it's our oven or washer or
anything at all that we want to use or
even the water maker everything in a
boat needs energy so we always have to
be on our computer checking how much
battery we have just to make sure that
we have enough battery that we're not
gonna kill the battery by running it way
too low and yeah that's kind of a thing
when you live on a boat you have limited
source of energy versus in your house
you use everything like someone else is
just always constantly giving you
unlimited source of energy that's not
the case in boat in a house you have so
many comforts it's just your everyday
things you have I mean you still have
your daily chores like doing laundry
like washing them dishes like cooking
like cooking and all that stuff right in
a house oh this is super dark but in a
house you could just literally put your
clothes in the laundry you put your
clothes in the dryer everything comes
out perfectly dry in a boat you have to
figure out how to make your laundry you
have to figure out how to dry your
clothes or just hanging them up there
right if you're cooking you don't have a
microwave to just warm your food up you
actually have to cook it and if you have
a gas stove or whatever many of many
people don't have an oven and we have an
but again you worry about that
consumption of electricity some of the
other things many of us don't have ice
so that makes a difference a huge
difference when it's really hot
in a house you have this big space of
fridge right freezer and freezer which
is the most important here we have this
tiny space which still seems to be a lot
compared to what other boats have it
seems to be a lot right yeah so but it's
still not what you have in a house so
you always have to reduce right this is
our little bag of trash and in a house
you feel you have your big crash and you
don't have to worry about finding a
place to dump your trash right here you
can't do that so you need to always find
a trash in short it's very hard to find
trash is where you can actually recycle
when you're on a boat so it's that's
very complicated so you actually end up
just mixing the trash together which
sucks but you don't really find not in
Miami not in any place where you're
finding shore on a boat it you're gonna
find exactly you're not gonna find a
recycling bin and a compostable bin it's
really hard you know how in our house
you hate doing the dishes but you have a
dishwasher in a boat you also have to do
your dishes you have still the same
shorts that you have in a house if
you're not like us which is very rare to
have a dishwasher like we do on a boat
it's really rare but if you don't have a
dishwasher you have to always wash your
dishes every single time we're very
lucky and fortunate that we have a
washer but no boat and it's very hard to
have a dryer so nobody has a dryer so
once you do your laundry if you have a
washer you have to hang your clothes all
around the boat where whereas in a house
you just have your washer your dryer and
everything comes out perfectly clean and
ready to fall super warm not in a boat
might get a little humid there
not as perfectly warm and cozy something
else important air-conditioning
not everyone has air-conditioning in a
boat heaters you know how you always
love going to shower at any time of the
day because hot water is not a problem
we're not in a boat not everybody's as
fortunate to have a water heater so
sometimes it's really freaking cold
outside you have like 50 degrees outside
and it's freaking freezing and you have
to get in the bathroom and you have to
shower and the water is just as cold as
it is in the ocean so if it's 50 degrees
outside you can expect the water to be
just as cold and you still have to
shower because what are you gonna do not
shower right
I will not shower my hair if it's cold
just say and just like not having a
water maker having air conditioner is a
huge plus it's a huge luxury here on a
boat because not everybody has air
conditioner and that even if you have
air conditioner you probably can't turn
it on if you're not plugged to shore so
if you're sailing if you're moving if
you're in an anchorage you probably
can't turn on your air conditioner and
if it's really hot like in florida and
it's you know ninety a hundred
fahrenheit out there you gotta suck it
up right get on your swimwear jump on
the ocean and you probably jump on the
ocean it's still hot and take a shower
yeah also if you're going to the
bathroom you go to the bathroom without
a problem and uh both you actually worry
about pumping the toilet if you don't
have an electric toilet you have to pump
the water in and pump the water out
we're very lucky that we have electrical
toilets here but most people in a boat
actually have a pump and they have to
pump their water in and out once they
use their toilet and when they're
preparing to use it they have to pump
water in and then plump water out so
electrical toilets are not that
so in a house we have like really really
fast internet whoa not in the pool back
in the days I remember those amazing
days not a problem so here in the bridge
like mostly hot spot or we get internet
like from other areas but yeah no more
high-speed internet more high-speed
Internet adios amigo another thing if
you think that things break on a house
well on the boat it's times ten times
everything breaks like everyday if it's
gonna break yeah so yeah that's a little
bit more complicated more things to
learn but yeah discipline yeah
eventually us start enjoying things and
you learn how to fix it faster right yep
so I don't know just wanted to say some
of the things that makes the difference
between living on a boat and living the
house but either way I don't think we
see ourselves living in a house again I
don't think we see ourselves we love our
house it's really comfy it's beautiful
it's you know it has everything that we
would need but we just don't see
ourselves living here anymore
I think the boat life it's what we want
and what we see ourselves doing hope you
