‘Retirement doesn’t mean resting,’ says Hong Kong-based Alfred Yu, who leads running and cycling tours, and teaches tai chi and painting
For Alfred Yu, retirement was the beginning of an active, purposeful life.
Growing older had sparked new passions in him and retirement allowed the Hong Kong-based 67-year-old to explore new possibilities, develop different skills and share them freely with others.
After a career running his own training centre focused on computer-aided design and graphic design, Yu’s retirement in 2014 marked a turning point.
With more free time and no financial pressures, and his only child becoming more independent at age 16, Yu had the opportunity to rediscover his own interests.
