Hello, I'm a 65-year-old man who's still young and active, and I live in Mainz, Germany. I'm separated and have two adult children who are still studying. I work full-time as a construction estimator and civil engineer for a road and civil engineering company. The company wants me to continue working until at least my 70th birthday. But after a long working life in a responsible office job, I finally want to do something for myself. I plan to leave Germany at the end of the year and would like to live in a mixed-gender shared apartment (e.g., co-living), ideally with like-minded, peace-loving people. I particularly enjoy yoga and meditation, and I also like to dance occasionally. My music tastes include rock, new age, Patti Smith and Stromae, Post Malone, Halsey, etc. A private room and, if possible, a private bathroom would be a requirement. My rental budget is around €800-900 per month.  I'd like to try living in Nepal first to see how it affects me and whether I like it. I'd keep my primary residence in Germany for the time being. Last October, I went on a yoga retreat in Nepal and was part of a wonderful international community. Could you please recommend something? I'm not sure if I'm asking the right people, but I have to start somewhere. Please, no Shivananda or similarly strict communities. I'm easygoing and like things relaxed. Thank you in advance for your tips and best regards, Matthias
