About this Event
About the book:
Eva zu Beck walked away from a high-flying career and a picture-perfect life to travel solo through some of the most remote places, from a lone horse trek in Mongolia to a desert island in Yemen. Along the way, she built an online community and confronted the tension between a life of freedom and the need for home. An inspiring memoir about dismantling someone else's dream and finding the courage to build your own.
Why we chose it: "In a world that seems intent on locking us in gilded cages and behind screens, I want my book to stand as an ode to freedom, a call to blaze your very own trail and a blueprint for an adventurous life."

Your hosts for the evening
Sruthi Ravi
Sruthi spent a lot of time trying to find the right book club before RBC came along. She loves watching cricket, curling up with a good book, and to travel the world.
Dreamer, bookworm and feminist, Sruthi loves to meet new people, and learn more about the world we live in.
Most impactful RBC moment: "The most impactful book have been the ones that have challenged me to look at how I live my life. These books empowered me to make changes to my sleep habits, and change my actions as a consumer, as a friend/partner and as a member of society."
Emma Noller
Emma is a neuro-spicy, chaotic good character who has been teaching for the past 8 years. A former London RBC member, she is so excited to be a part of bringing this amazing experience to Sydney. She can’t wait to reconnect with the amazing people and opportunities that RBC is known for.
She loves travel, connecting with people and thinks that learning is a life-long journey. Why not do it in the most creative ways you can!
Most impactful RBC moment: "Discussing Lost Connections with a psychologist who changed our point of view. She did this by disagreeing with what the author was saying about reliance on Medic*tion. It was a lens I hadn’t looked through reading the book; this actually started my journey on learning more about my ADHD, how my brain can work for me and finding the support networks I needed to be the most efficient and creative I could be."
