Long Life in Lugano
By Linda Tancs
Ask German born Rosa Rein if there’s something in the Swiss air, wine or water to account for her longevity. She’s now the oldest woman in Switzerland at a spry 111 years. Living in Lugano, she still enjoys the best of health despite some hearing loss. And she could have a partner with which to toast her good fortune. In the area of Misoexertal, Switzerland four men reside over the age of 100. Maybe longevity really is determined by how you choose to look at life, regardless how life treats you. After all, Rosa was widowed as early as 1973 and lost her mother at a Nazi concentration camp. As Swiss psychologist Carl Jung observed, “It all depends on how we look at things and not on how they are themselves.”
