A Week with Chiharu is a seven-day glimpse into the life of 91-year-old Chiharu as she spends time with her son Mitsu and me in Buren Bay, Japan. Through ordinary moments, sharing meals, singing, sailing, walking, and simply enjoying each day's adventures- I'm exploring what everyday life can teach us about aging well, community, and the art of growing older. Day 5 Today began, as most mornings do, with Radio Taiso and breakfast. Later we went beachcombing, read a little haiku, and as evening approached, experienced one of Japan's delightful summer moments—a yūdachi, a sudden late-afternoon rain shower. Rather than run for cover, Mitsu stood outside and enjoyed his unexpected shower while Chiharu looked on, smiling as she watched her son embracing the moment. What has stayed with me throughout this week is the obvious enjoyment a mother and son find in each other's company. Whether they're sailing, singing, sharing a meal, or laughing in the rain, there is a deep ease between them that feels increasingly rare—and increasingly worth noticing. Tomorrow... Day 6. About the series A Week with Chiharu follows one ordinary week in the life of 91-year-old Chiharu in Buren Bay, Japan. Rather than searching for dramatic secrets to longevity, the series pays attention to the everyday moments that shape a life well lived. #Longevity #Community #JapanSolo #HealthyAging #Japan #MotherAndSon

Summer removes the black tank from our Beneteau 411 forward head. We converted our conventional toilet into a composting toilet, so we no longer need this tank to hold our poo! #boatwork #boatrefit #beneteau #sailboat

Every boat has it’s sweet spot ⛵️where the wave is just high enough, the wind just strong enough and the wind direction just from the right angle 📐 I think yesterday we found Zambezis sweet spot 😍 and oh boy did the girl show us what she can do ⛵️ #sailing #sailboat #sailinglife #sailingadventure #liveaboardlife #liveaboard
