In experience interviews which consider aspects of Positive Design and User Experience we assess which elements contribute to a positive experience in the everyday life of older adults. First results show that most positive experiences revolve around other people (family & friends). In total, twelve experience categories were identified which can be grouped into the three experience themes ""connecting with people"", ""expressing oneself"" and ""meeting a challenge"".enconference paper
