Far From is rethinking the travel publication.
I am founder & editor of Far From, a brand created for discerning travellers looking beyond the bucket list.
In an era dominated by short-form content and clickbait headlines, we buck the trend—publishing considered, longer-form stories, guides and recommendations that are read, not scrolled past.
Far From connects with an engaged global audience seeking a richer, more thoughtful alternative to conventional travel media.
A Deeply Engaged Readership
Visitors spend time with the content, rather than skimming through it, spending an average of 2:48 on the site. The strongest editorial pieces hold attention for considerably longer: the Guide to Tibet holds attention for 10:55, the Guide to the Algerian Sahara for 7:53, and Pre-Season in Torres del Paine for 6:24. Several essays and destination pieces hold attention for more than 5.00 minutes. Without resorting to clickbait tactics.
The site's most-viewed story is also a commercial editorial commission: Estancia Nibepo Aike — Forty Minutes a Gaucho, a story about the experience of staying on the Argentine estancia. It demonstrates how Far From can tell a commercially useful story without losing its editorial character.

A Growing, High Intent Audience

Readers Act on Recommendations
Karen G. followed me to Nangchen in remote eastern Tibet. Simon H. went to the Tassilli n'Ajjer in Algeria. Both using the same guides that I used. Both found me through Far From cold. Neither knew me beforehand.
