We asked, you answered.

How would you describe yourself?

58, health professional, white, straight, Spanish.

Imagine you are 72, 80 or even 99 years old: How and with whom do you live together?

With my partner, travelling to see my grandchildren and continuing visiting new places

Who are the most important people in your life and how do you spend time with them?

My daughters, my grandchildren, my family (siblings, nephews, cousins) and my friends

What is your sex and love life like in the future?

Hopefully like it is, although I imagine with slightly less frequency 😉

How do you manage to stay mentally and physically fit?

Reading and doing sports

How do you afford everyday life in the future?

Pension and hopefully some income

In the future, what do you get up for in the morning?

My grandchildren

If you had to tell a young friend about all the things you’ve done right while ageing and would thus recommend to them… What would they be?

Enjoy the pleasant things in life, the things you provide for yourself. Try not to depend too much on other things.
