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!

In the almost 2 years we've spent in Trinidad repairing our boat in the shipyard and on anchor we've made some amazing friends. Before we left, we wanted to catch up with two of them for one last lime. Both incredible cooks we had curried goat for dinner then after a swim the next morning to recover from the late night, tucked into some tasty curried duck. Can't wait to see them again, on this island or another! Join this channel to get access to member only perks: ?YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZM9g1jIlGDPRNmcmUMKAzg/join ?
