The key to longevity and health is so simple. This is Kakazu-san. She comes to this bar at least two times a week to be with her friends. She walks and takes a bus which takes almost an hour each way. But when she is here she is laughing, eating, drinking, singing, just enjoying. She tells me stories of when she was young, her experience during the Battle of Okinawa, her children, everything. And she is happy the entire time. A true example of Okinawan longevity. When I asked her what her ikigai is she said: being with her friends. #okinawa #longevity #happiness #health #haitai
