My mom goes to elderly university for free in China. It is probably the best thing they have done for elderly. She likes it so much. You can take any subject you like, no exam, no certificate, just learning for fun. She’s now learning gardening, music, philosophy, and some geopolitics. There are farmers travelling all the way to the school everyday to learn. This is 1000x better than stupid elderly home which basically kill elderly quickly rather than care.
It significantly increases her life quality and lifespan I believe, because she literally has nothing else to do. She will be bored to death. Now she exercises 2 hours in the morning (exercise was learned from school as well) and go to school in the afternoon.
