You are very lucky being alone.
I think when you feel alone, I would recommend going for a walk.
You need a kind of exercise too.
I am 87 living in a foreign country alone and go to gym 3 times a week, getting to gym I walk for 20min. My hobby is eating out.

I agree with the vote for exercise. I am 65 and go to water aerobics classes, regular aerobics, and strength 💪 training. I also walk and bike.
I enjoy the exercise! Pat
Having faith in God. Who knows what is best for us all.
Where are you living and why are you there alone? I lived in the South of France with my French husband. He died of cancer and I stayed about a year and came back to the US with my tail between my legs. The language and writing in French was an issue as was communicating with Government officials, etc. regarding the death of my husband and taxes which they though I should pay and I refused as my income was no derived in France. They dropped that, finally after a battle of sorts.

@hiroko right now I cannot walk very far. My legs are getting weak from severe polyneuropathy. My doctor may send me for balance therapy soon, but until my legs improve I need to stick with short distances around a store or somewhere inside for now.
I like to eat out with family and friends too!
