"Group Living for Mutual Support" Elderly Care — Building a Pastoral Villa in the Countryside

2025-11-26

When we grow old, find a few like-minded friends, build a courtyard in the suburbs, and live a free and unrestrained life. This way, we won't be a burden to our children, and we'll have friends to look out for each other. This is also a common elderly care model among many foreigners: "group elderly care." This concept inspires seniors around the world — with loved ones by your side and friends next door, even in old age, you can still have a life of your own.

Such "cohabitation" is a form of "companionship-based elderly care." Choose your neighbors wisely and live with a few like-minded friends: drink tea, grow vegetables, take walks, raise flowers, have meals together, and travel. Look after and care for each other. It's far better than the monotonous life in a nursing home!

Eating together is convenient and cost-effective; playing chess and chatting fills the day with fulfillment and joy; growing flowers and vegetables together — you can nurture what you love without worrying about no one watering them when you're away; go fishing together! Drink tea and chat casually! Elderly care is an unavoidable issue for everyone — we all grow old eventually. Thinking about the future, sitting in the sun, taking walks, and gossiping with several good friends around... it sounds quite joyful. Suddenly, "growing old" doesn't seem so scary anymore!
