An inspiring story of one woman's solo adventures around the world, from top YouTuber and travel filmmaker Eva zu Beck

Eva has it all- a high-flying job, a picture-perfect marriage, a lifestyle that many would aspire to. Yet she can't shake the feeling that she is living someone else's dream. After hitting rock bottom, she buys a one-way ticket to Nepal and leaves her old life behind in search of her true path in life.

Over the next few years, Eva travels solo to some of the world's most far-flung places. A lone horse trek in Mongolia, COVID lockdown on a desert island in Yemen and overlanding across the US in an 18-year-old truck. She grows an online community and finds love where she wasn't looking. But the shift from a rooted life to a transient one is far from straightforward and Eva grapples with the tension between her wanderlust and a longing for somewhere to call home.

This book is the world-expanding memoir of Eva journeying through the world on her own terms - and inspiring example of what awaits when you take the wilder path.
