We asked, you answered.

How would you describe yourself?

38 years old, white, female, I like to explore, born in Colombia, I work in a team in a multinational company.

Alone, living close to my sister or best friend, raising bees and travelling.

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

My sister, my nieces and nephews and my best friend plus friends from a former job. I also meet up once a month with friends.

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

With devices and without emotional baggage.

How do you manage to stay mentally and physically fit?

Hiking and doing wine-tasting trips.

How do you afford everyday life in the future?

I will do activities that add up to my pension.

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

I would like to contribute with my time to NGOs that help migrants.

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?

Eating a balanced diet, doing some sport every day, reading books, learning something new every month, getting together with friends and taking care of them.
