Met 2 60yr plus (we didn't ask) french ladies traveling for a few months, in Burma who had recently travelled India.

Within minutes of meeting us they told us about sh*tting the bed in India 😂 (in a very humorous way to be clear, not as crass as it sounds). Had mad respect for them - no comfy cruises you would usually associate with that age, were backpacking like the rest of us and having a riot.

Learnt years ago there's no 'right way' to travel.

Some people enjoy riding 100mile days on a bicycle. Some people fly everywhere and cram as much as possible into 2 weeks. Some people prefer to sit on a beach for 2 weeks in an all inclusive. I enjoy backpacking for at least 3 weeks to a month in a single country.

Each has merit, reasons and personal preferences. We all rest differently

Yes the above still remains gobbledygook but if you trace through to the game theory 'game' someone else posted, then look at Nicky Case's page (who programmed the game) her YouTube video "How to Explain Things Real Good" is excellent.

Glad the above is working for you! I'll stick to practical advice but will keep an open mind some of the above may be applicable in future
