Suddenly, people all around the world know of the island that my father was from.
Ikaria, an island in eastern Greece close to the Turkish border, has been a subject of study across not only the University of Athens, but around the world. The "blue zone" has been studied for its life longevity, meaning that most citizens live into their 90s while their activity levels and sex lives change minimally between the ages of 25 and 89.
No one lives forever. But Ikarians come pretty close.
