Ann Arbor, MI, USA – October 17, 2026 – “Be honest with your body. When your body tells you something, listen and never turn your back. In the meantime, work hard. Be able to go anywhere your mind wants to go, physically and financially,” Dr. John Chun describes his captivating memoir, Good Health and Meaningful Travel. Expertly combining his decades of knowledge about medicine and his worldwide travels, Dr. Chun shares the lessons he has learned for what it truly takes to be healthy and live a fulfilling life.
This is not a specialist’s treatise dressed up as self-help, nor a travelogue with a few vitamin asides. It is the work of a doctor who has watched bodies fail and recover, and of a traveler who believes that health is what makes the world reachable.
