It is true that these are the pastimes that most elderly people in our country will choose after retirement. But square dance and chess are not popular abroad. How can foreigners spend their retirement without square dance?
The life of the elderly
United States-RV Tourism The United States has a vast territory and a vast territory, and there are many natural wonders in it. There are dozens of world-famous national parks alone. Friends who often watch American movies or have been to the United States on the spot should know that private cars are essential for the United States.
Some people live in the suburbs far away from the city, but their work place is in the city, so it is very necessary to buy a car instead of walking. In their spare time, they often travel by car.
When they retire, traveling by car is still their passion. Only after retirement, they prefer to travel to the United States by car. The RV is spacious and can accommodate many people. Sleep comfortably and cook by yourself. It's like traveling with your own house, so it's very popular with the elderly who love to travel and have plenty of time.

France-Elegant Slow Life France has always been a romantic country. "Waiting" and "dating" are the two most frequent things in France, because the French pay attention to etiquette, even if they go to see a doctor or visit someone else's house, they must make an appointment in advance. This has also created the slow and elegant unique rhythm of French life.
The romance of the French is also reflected in their extreme emphasis on how to live. French people are very concerned about whether their living environment is comfortable or not, and often redecorate their rooms according to their own styles and preferences.
If there is a balcony, it will be the best for them. Balcony is the most suitable place for leisure in a house. It is the most pleasant thing to get together with family or friends for afternoon tea and talk about the latest new things in leisure.
The French enjoy life the most. As people who also value "food", the French even have to prepare for five or six hours in order to enjoy a dish. Not only should the dishes be processed slowly, but also the dishes should look artistic.
Even if you just taste a cup of coffee, you will spend hours sipping it carefully. In old age, the French still maintain the rhythm of "slow life", ensuring enough sleep and enough time to enjoy delicious food leisurely every day.
As a French woman who loves beauty, her concern for her appearance will not decrease with her age. Even over 70 years old, skin and hair care is still meticulous. Some women also choose Botox to come to prevent wrinkles.

Turkey-Returning to Rural Life Many elderly people in Turkey will ask someone to build a house for themselves before retirement, and then move to the suburbs or countryside to enjoy the rural life of "picking chrysanthemums under the east fence" after retirement. This kind of rural life can not only bring a quiet environment to the elderly, but also satisfy their desire of "self-sufficiency" in farming and vegetables.
For example, tomatoes are an essential ingredient in Turkish menus. Turks returning to the countryside can choose to grow tomatoes and raise poultry themselves. Not only can you eat with more peace of mind, but you also have a sense of accomplishment in growing your own vegetables. It is also very pleasant to enjoy retirement while farming.
Some surveys show that Turks usually don't like sports very much. They usually choose to watch TV for recreation. In addition, they usually like to eat meat, so many Turks suffer from diseases such as cholesterol and high blood pressure.
This is very bad for their health. This rural life after retirement can help them improve their physical fitness, and the air in the countryside is also very fresh, which is also very good for their health.

Japan-The average working day of re-employment is long, and it is also because of this factor that Japan is also a country with serious aging. Therefore, on the one hand, the state extends the retirement time of the elderly, on the other hand, it encourages the retired elderly to re-employment, and returns the re-employed elderly to work to exert their residual heat.
Because the phenomenon of re-employment of the elderly is relatively common, Japan's system in this regard is also relatively perfect. Rules and regulations such as the Law on Employment Insurance for the Elderly have been implemented.
Some people may worry that the physical condition of the elderly cannot support their re-employment, but in fact, many retirees are happy to return to work. Only in this way can they continue to play their own value and not feel that their role in society is not as important as before.
Another interesting phenomenon is the high divorce rate of the elderly in Japan, which is due to the great pressure of work in Japan. In traditional Japanese families, it is usually the husband who goes out to work and is usually busy, and the wife is responsible for the family's diet and daily life.
However, once life becomes more leisurely after retirement, it is difficult for both husband and wife to adapt to this leisurely life at once. Friction in daily life will also increase, which will eventually lead to an increase in divorce rate.

Germany-renting old people will make people stunned at first sight. In fact, this is a payment transaction service. Young people are usually busy, or parents lack the experience of raising children for the first time. At this time, you can invite an old man who is free and willing to come home to help them take care of their children.
This seemingly absurd method can actually achieve the best of both worlds. On the one hand, it can solve the problem that young people have no time to take care of their children, on the other hand, the elderly can also play their own value in the process of accompanying their children. Some old people like children very much, and taking care of them can be said to be a kind of enjoyment.
Of course, there are still many obstacles to the implementation of this service. The most important thing is to assess the credibility of the elderly, because these retired elderly people have not received professional training like housekeeping and special lunar new year.
Employers will worry about whether the old people they hire can take good care of their children, and even worry about whether some people with ulterior motives have bad ideas about their employers' property or children. It is difficult for employers to dispel these concerns easily.
But in any case, more and more elderly people have found ways to continue to play a role in Germany.

China —— Diversified retirement In China, the elderly still have to spend a lot of time taking care of their families. Especially for the children's hard work, it will accompany them all their lives. When their children are also parents, they will transfer this care to their grandchildren.
Young people are busy at work and will take the initiative to take care of their grandchildren. They often find their own value through dedication to their children and families, and they enjoy it.
When they have little free time, they usually do it by dancing square dance, playing chess and visiting the park. However, in recent years, with the continuous opening of social concepts, the way of providing for the aged has also changed.
For example, in recent years, the elderly will visit many places at different times of the year. Different from ordinary travel, old people who live for the elderly will stay in one place for several weeks. Enjoy the journey slowly, relax yourself and broaden your horizons. This way of providing for the elderly is of great benefit to the body and mind of the elderly.

Finally, different countries have different customs and even different lifestyles after retirement. Some countries pay attention to enjoyment, and people in some countries want to continue to work and continue to shine.
However, a careful observation of retirement life in these countries will reveal that the elderly generally hope to find their own value in other ways.
Moreover, the trend of enjoying life and traveling for the elderly is becoming more and more obvious. It is foreseeable that the way of providing for the aged in the future will be more advanced. But no matter what kind of old-age care, it is very important to find a way that is beneficial to your body and mind.
