The majority of us have been tempted at one point to blow up our entire life, sell all our belongings, and go off to live in the mountains somewhere and travel the world.

One woman, however, has managed to make a name worldwide for doing exactly that, and has spoken on This Morning about the best place she has visited out of the 60+ countries she has travelled to.

Eva zu Beck, 35, is from Poland and was living in the UK with a husband and successful job ten years ago when she decided to abandon it all to go travelling.

Eva, speaking on the ITV show, ended her marriage to her husband and booked a one-way plane ticket to Nepal after deciding to go travelling.

She is now a travel influencer who has spent the last decade travelling the world, picking up almost two million subscribers on YouTube in the process.

Speaking about the decision to leave her husband and job behind to go travelling, Eva said: “I feel like I was kind of living the dream back then in a way. I had a great job, a lovely relationship.

“Everything was going well, living in London, climbing the corporate ladder and I kind of accepted that that's how you become successful and happy in life.

“I never really stopped along the way to kind of look back and think, is this actually making me happy?”

She stated that, once she re-evaluated her life, Eva realised she’d rather be ‘building my own dream as opposed to someone else’s’.

The 35-year-old described the months that followed as a ‘scary experience’, stating that she was hoping that she would find herself on the top of a mountain in Nepal, but that this wasn’t what happened.

Over time however she developed a following and adopted a German Shephard Vilk, but gave a surprising answer when she said her favourite country of the more than 60 she has visited.

Asked about her favourite on the show she said: “I think the one place that really kind of lives in my heart and my soul is Mongolia.

“I know that not a lot of people have like any image really of Mongolia, but it's a place that's just there's no fences, just rolling hills until the horizon.

“It really leaves you with this sense of like freedom. You're out there and you feel like a feral being like you're free.

“Not many places do that, I don't think, and Mongolia is one of them.”
