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!

It’s a hot evening, so supper’s being cooked outside—simple chicken, spinach, and potatoes under the open sky. I’m using the mug my brother gave me from caribou country, where he’s living his dream in a tiny house with his wife Tracy. The heat may have shifted things, but the rhythm of life afloat remains. Sunset. Supper. A slow return to the quiet joy of the boat life. 📍 Filmed aboard Wahine | Never Too Late Academy / Pacific Solo #NeverTooLate #SailingLife #BoatLife #OffGridLiving #SimpleLiving #WahineChronicles #SunsetDinner #CookingOutside #TinyHomeOnWater #LifeAfloat #PacificSolo #boatlife #travel #sailingjapan

Could they be the land equivalent of JetSkiers? :) in terms of sound pollution? Three more days and I am back on board Wahine. check out more videos at @pacificsolo.com
