Different Natures takes you on three journeys. Each gives an honest and passionate insight into the evolution of a compulsive traveller. Looking for direction with the wrong eyes spawned Graham’s lust for wandering, the miles cleared his vision and the hunger for longer distance grows with an insatiable appetite for new experiences.
Based on his diaries spanning a twelve year period of travel from the Arctic Circle to Mexico, Graham Field’s journeys are his life. Inevitably these experiences increase his awareness as he passes through various natures of both a reluctant maturity and the extreme environments between his destinations.
From midnight sun to darkest nights, there’s as much diversity in these tales as common threads
Three very different journeys on three very different bikes each of which had varying degrees of suitability. His initial drug induced escapism led to bigger ideas, distances and durations. Eventually finding a reality and gaining the wisdom of perspective, coming to terms with his love hate relationship with the human race and its impact on the planet.
Graham Field’s beloved bargain basement Kawasaki KLR650 (bought for £700 off eBay) has taken him to more than 40 countries covering over 65,000 miles, across Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Siberian Russia, Iraq, Armenia and Guatemala to name a few. This book however, tells of how he found his way, to what for him, is the perfect bike and the environments to ride it.
