I've had severe allergic reactions to bee stings-so when I heard fake dragonflies might ward them off, I ordered six off Amazon. They're going up on my sailboat as a kind of quirky defense system. Should I name them? And? what eats dragonflies anyway? ???? This little moment is part of life aboard as I travel Japan's remote coastlines and explore what it means to live well and live long. From fear of bee stings to going beyond Blue Zones-it's all part of the adventure. ? Filmed aboard Wahine in one of Japan's hidden harbors. ? Part of the Journey Beyond the Blue Zone series. Comment below if you've ever used natural (or unnatural) pest deterrents-or if you have great names for dragonfly bodyguards!

Another blast from the past! Derek was towing me in the dinghy with the sailboat towards Migros. I was going to row the rest of the way as we did not have an outboard motor and we were heading up into 10 knots of wind! This legend from Migros saw us and decided to come help us out by giving me a lift! What a legend!
