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.

Industry Reviews

The Wilder Way feels like stepping into Eva’s private journal in the best possible way. It’s raw, disarmingly honest and beautifully told. Eva’s journey from corporate life to the complete wild and radical freedom she now inhabits is both courageous and deeply relatable. As well as being filled to the brim with adventure stories from faraway places to inspire any reader to take the wilder way, it’s also a story for anyone who has ever felt the quiet pull toward a life less ordinary. And at the heart, it’s a powerful example that another way of living is possible.

Lucy Shepherd

A joy of recognition to many places around the world. A deeply personal insight in Eva as a person and her search around the world to find herself.

Noraly Schoenmaker

Eva’s story is an inspiring call to step out beyond the comfort of the normality and back into the wild. Part adventure, part philosophy of living, it reminds us that the most meaningful journeys often begin where certainty ends.

Bobby Bolton

Eva's story is one of pure grit, guiding us through an exploration of the space between being alone and being lonely, two things that are often - mistakenly - seen as one and the same.
