Ed Reif's 2023
Mastering the Art
2023 became Ed's year of geographical storytelling mastery, weaving tales from the southern tip of Africa to Britain's most remote corners. With 16 posts strategically distributed across 9 months, this year chronicled journeys through South Africa's landscapes, England's timeless beauty, Gibraltar's strategic crossroads, and the windswept isolation of Fair Isle—Britain's most remote inhabited island. The intentional gaps in January, August, and other months weren't absences—they were the quiet spaces between adventures, allowing each destination's story to resonate fully. November's 3-post peak captured the essence of multiple locations, while single-post months like February, March, May, and September proved that sometimes one perfectly crafted travel narrative says more than a dozen tourist snapshots.
