Michael Dixon

After 30 years as a Great Lakes marine biologist, Michael took early retirement when his wife passed away from cancer, sold their Milwaukee home, and purchased a traditional houseboat in Europe to heal through travel. What began as a personal audio journal documenting his floating lifestyle evolved into 'The Floating World,' a successful podcast exploring the intersection of water-based living, marine conservation, and cultural traditions that has given him an unexpected second career and new purpose in his sixties.
