I do not like retirement homes. That may sound provocative, especially as aging societies rapidly build more of them. But after traveling across Japan’s longevity hotspots and researching healthy lifespan, I increasingly wonder whether separating generations may actually accelerate decline rather than slow it.

He is currently traveling across Japan researching longevity, healthy lifespan, and the role of community in aging well. He is the author of ten books, including the forthcoming Longevity and the Art of Community: Lessons from Japan, exploring what modern societies can learn from Japan’s remaining pockets of strong intergenerational culture and healthy aging. #HealthyAging #Longevity #Intergenerational #Community #AgingSociety
