i live on a boat.
[{"role": "system", "content": "A houseboat (different from boathouse, which is a shed for storing boats) is a boat that has been designed or modified to be used primarily as a home. Some houseboats are not motorized, because they are usually \"moored\", kept stationary at a fixed point and often tethered to land to provide utilities. However, many are capable of operation under their own power. \"Float house\" is a Canadian and American term for a house on a float (raft), a rough house may be called a \"shanty boat\". In Western countries, houseboats tend to be either owned privately or rented out to holiday-goers, and on some canals in Europe, people dwell in houseboats all year round. Examples of this include, but are not limited to, Amsterdam, London, and Paris. In Zimbabwe, specifically on Lake Kariba, houseboats have been in use since the creation of the lake in the late 1950s/early 1960s. A houseboat makes it easy to experience the Zambezi basin and all the associated wildlife, as a lot of game come down to the water for drinking and to cool down. There is a houseboat and fishing community on the southern side of Hong Kong Island known as Aberdeen floating village. There was also one such community in the Yau Ma Tei Typhoon Shelter.\n"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "I just bought a houseboat and plan on making it my primary home"}, {"role": "user", "content": "That sounds quite rewarding but seems risky as well. What are some differences between living on a houseboat versus a home?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "One of the differences is it can be motorized. I can live there and go out to the middle of the lake an fish  from by deck. Pretty cool. But many of them are kept stationary"}, {"role": "user", "content": "I would love to be able to explore in the comfort of my own home. Don't you have to bolt everything down to keep it secure?

There are also Float houses that are actual houses that just float"}, {"role": "user", "content": "That's pretty interesting, though I think I'd prefer a motorized home if I'm on the water. What else can you tell me about living on a houseboat?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "In Zimbabwe, houseboats have been used since the creation of Lake Kariba in the late 50's/early 60's"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Wow, they have been around for longer than I would have originally imagined. Is it cheaper to live on a house boat?"}]
