 Welcome to the Land of Health. Where are you coming from, and what is the purpose of your visit?
You might be coming from the gym, or you might be coming from a hospital bed. Maybe you want to scale the summit of Mt. Everest or share a bottle of wine while you’re sailing the Mediterranean. Or maybe you just want to be able to take your shirt off at the beach.
The staff at the Health Passport wants to help you discover a healthy lifestyle no matter where you’re coming from. More importantly, we hope to show you how to make the most of it once you’re there. This magazine may be your passport to health, but your health is also your passport to so much more - new people, new places, and new experiences. Health is your passport to your best life.
We write about travel a lot at the Health Passport. Travel is part of the healthy lifestyle because it allows us to see different people and different places and gain a new perspective on the world around us. But travel is only part of the healthy lifestyle. Seneca, the Greek stoic, thought that an unhealthy body is disobedient to the spirit. He understood that if you want to be healthy mentally, sexually, or spiritually, then you must first be in good physical health. We believe that true health is all of these things. We believe that you should have a stamp on every page of your health passport.
While you’re traveling the world of health, don’t forget to stop and enjoy the view once in a while. Sometimes, things you may think are unhealthy are the healthiest things you can do. Have a beer with an old friend, lie in a hammock by the ocean all day and sleep through your workout, or pull an all-nighter doing something you love. Do you need to re-think health? Things look a lot different from our shores.
Enjoy your stay.
