The Editor’s Notes
Thank you to everyone who helped me take some time to be in Greece to study blue zones and lifestyle medicine in rural areas around the world as I continue to research the nexus of the social determinants of health and education. If you’d like to wander along with me on this journey, follow me on Facebook. My thanks to Intrepid Travel, a certified B Corp committed to creating positive change through the joy of travel, and my guide, Eva, whose mom and grandparents are from Ikaria. Stay tuned.
