I went back to university in my 50s, mixing with students of all ages and nationalities. It was really interesting to meet them all. That led to a variety of associated project work and hobbies which I'm still enjoying in my late 60s. The oldest student in our group was 86, so you're never too old, and mature students don't necessarily have to have the same qualifications as youngsters.
I'd hoped to be able to do more travelling, both here and abroad, but obviously that's been curtailed for a while.
