Waiting day in Amami. The wind is too strong to paddle out to my boat, Wahine, anchored in the bay — so I wait. At the same time, far away in London, my agent is showing my new book, Longevity and the Art of Community: Lessons from Japan, to publishers. After years of writing, the strange part begins. The moment when the book is no longer entirely in your hands. — Lowell Sheppard is a writer, sailor, and Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society exploring how people stay active and connected into old age across Japan. His latest book, Longevity and the Art of Community: Lessons from Japan, is the result of two years living and traveling in Japan`s Longevity Hot Spots #JapanSolo #FieldNotes #SailingLife #Amami #AuthorLife #AgingWell
We didn’t know that Samos wine is to Greece what, for example, Champagne is to France or Port is to Portugal: the signature, iconic alcoholic drink! So there are plenty of wineries. But our harbor master tipped us off about a small winery producing organic Samos wine. We set off for the eastern part of the island and rented a car for the trip. The winery, Hatziioannou Estate, is located in a beautiful spot in the green hills on the east side of Samos, naturally surrounded by vineyards. They are exclusively dedicated to the production of high-quality organic wines. We received a warm welcome and were invited to sit at a large table overlooking the tanks and wine barrels. The inspiring owner shared his story with us, explaining how he started the winery together with his wife and sons. Watch the video of our arrival at the winery, the tasting, and the lovely owners here!
