| Popis: | 103 The tendency toward population aging is happening all around the world. Thus the leisure activities for the life after retirement to the aged people had become an important issue. The qualitative interviewing approach is applied in this study on senior citizens above 65. The result is described as below. Through the interviews with 19 tour operators and people of relative professions, the researcher have had an insight of their lives—experiences, feelings, either joyful or depressed, and analyzed with qualitative approach and verified with present theories; which illustrate the effect of travel companion or escort to the traveling for seniors. The result shows that the travel companion or escort is critical for seniors. In the everyday life, we can see the retired people are the major participants of the leisure activities—senior lady travel with daughter, or the elderly couple view the booming flowers together. All these indicate the importance of leisure activity for the senior group of people. If the internal, social, and structural issues are banished, the elders may have many benefits from the leisure activities and traveling. According to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, the silver generation needs more spiritual and psychologicalsatisfaction. Erikson’s psychological development theory also indicates the importance of the adjustment from depressions and inner conflicts for elder people. Leisure activity can meet people’s many kinds of needs; to arrange it well is the key. This study was conducted with referring to the relative report, observing the tourism market for the senior citizens and the effect of the companion and escort to senior people’s travel. Based on the theory of the necessity for aged people to keep participating social activities and to remain as much as possible the life he/she had in their middle age, this study was led to this result: the senior citizens are highly interested in having an enjoyable life, travels and leisure activities after retirement. To develop tourism opportunities for the silver generation is becoming an important issue to study on. |
