Eureka: Finding the Line between Desire and Contentment, then Riding It North American Edition
Who tries to ride deep into Iraq just to see if the news reports are accurate, ends up joining
a street demonstration against someone else's government, or sticks their arm between the
jaws of a wild mountain wolf-dog?
After the success of his fi rst book In Search of Greener Grass, Graham Field hits the road again
with his bargain-basement KLR650, recording his experiences in his inimitable and revealingly
honest diary style. The Caucasus region is often overlooked by travellers, but Graham may
inadvertently be about to change all that.
A single pivotal event can transform any journey, and accepting rather than fi ghting that
moment can have glorious consequences for the traveller. In this instant the result ensures a
fantastic exploration of eastern Europe and beyond, the discovery of a hidden gem in Georgia,
and meanderings that leave us all much richer.
Ultimately, Eureka is an almost accidental realization that we cannot control our mood on the
road, but merely embracing it can be the most enlightening travel experience of all.

Fantastic honest book full of great ideas and inspiration. Couldn't put it down, really worth reading and I'm now reading Near Varna. Highly recommend it. He shows you don't need a fancy bike or loads of money to go on an adventure. Thank you Graham.
