In order to support my weak speaking, here I'm posting what I'm trying to say about the topic. Hope it helps a bit, and feel free to post your comment or voice recording.
This startling caption drew my attention when I was reading a magazine the other day. The content of the article was about a 94-year-old German grandmother, who was sent to a Polish nursing home by her daughter for a better life and more affordable care.
For about a third of the German price, she enjoys her new home in a picturesque villa that provides her with good physical therapy and round-the-clock nursing. Like this Grandmother, one in five Germans would now think of going abroad for an affordable nursing home. Nowadays, in many countries, birth-rates have been decreasing while life expectancy has been increasing. In other words, this situation may lead to a big challenge for governments and individuals in providing long-term care for seniors. Besides this, how to provide a dignified life for them is also a matter of concern. Does your country have the same situation? If so, does your government provide a nursing-friendly strategy to adapt to the increasingly ageing population?

Thank you for the nice recording and the news. I also read an interesting article long time ago which said that a smile of a person could produce the same equivalence of our brain stimulation as if we ate up to about 2,000 pieces of chocolate. It's kind of a great inspiration, isn't it? Have you smiled yet today, Aariz? :)
