Saying goodbye to Puducherry, the group journey north to the foothills of the Himalayas for their final week in India. Following a treacherous drive up narrow, winding roads, they arrive at their new home on the outskirts of Rishikesh, ready to experience the spiritual side of life in northern India.\n\nAfter starting the next day with an outdoor group meditation session amongst the wild monkeys and spectacular views, Duncan and John waste no time exploring the bustling town of Rishikesh, which attracts thousands of pilgrims from all over the world. For practicing Buddhist Susie, a visit to a famous Tibetan monastery with Barbara proves an emotional experience as she learns more about the faith she has followed for almost 30 years. And Henry, a recent convert to alternative medicine, takes advantage of the numerous Ayurvedic doctors in Rishikesh and books himself a warm herbal massage to treat his skin condition. \n\nKeen to discover alternative retirement options in the region, Henry, Britt and Paul check into a luxury senior-living village for the night. On the banks of the Ganges, John and Susie spend the night at the largest Ashram in Rishikesh, where they are granted an audience with its renowned spiritual leader.\n\nThe senior citizens say their final farewell to India on the sacred banks of the Ganges, where they join hundreds of people who gather every night to take part in a fire prayer ceremony that lights up the night sky. They reflect on the country that has had a profound effect on them, and on the true friendships they have made within the group.
