This is Day 2 of spending a week with 91-year-old Chiharu in my little longevity laboratory here in Buren Bay, Japan. It's only the second time we've met. The first was a few months ago when I took her sailing aboard Wahine. Today, Wahine belongs to her son Mitsu, while I remain here continuing my research into longevity and the art of community. Today's highlights included: • Sunrise Radio Taiso • Breakfast together • Mitsu catching our supper • Haiku over lunch • Snorkeling in the bay • Supper together • A mountaintop sunset • Skateboarding • High fives What strikes me isn't just that Chiharu can still do these things at 91. It's that she wants to. She approaches each part of the day with curiosity, enthusiasm, and a readiness to join in. These are only small observations from everyday life, but they continue to shape the questions I'm asking about what it really means to age well. Tomorrow... Day 3.

A glimpse of what a museum visit actually looks like. We are careful to respect traditions and customs, so not making fun of them in any way. Mostly making fun of us being typical tourists.

Change and progress are inevitable, even in the smallest of communities. But it is really cool to see one family hanging on, toughing it out on this off grid desert island. #islandlife #remote #communities #offgrid #island This is the story of the world's only sailing veterinary clinic.
