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.

Comment below if you've ever used natural (or unnatural) pest deterrents-or if you have great names for dragonfly bodyguards!
