His tips to become as old as possible as healthy as possible are:

1. If you can: Travel. But travel in a specific way; attempt to go out of your comfort zone.
2. You can do the above by eating the food that is on the local menu; look at the local customs.
3. Emerge yourself; talk to the locals; use the view words that you know in a foreign language
