I enjoy traveling, weird building projects (I made a couple viking helmets and built a loft and a ninja warrior course) and lately I've been back to practicing piano. I'm also half-way through writing a novel.4

Dance/Soccer/Music (keys)/ Writing/Reading/ Crocheting annnnddd.. well, I love to sing, but my voice isn't that great.2

I collect old furniture, I also love to upcycle but only things that are broken or need a lot of tlc, I decoupage as well and am just getting into gardening at the moment. As well as my dogs and organising my kids hobbies and social lives, anything creative I’ll try it.2

My work is in the semiconductor design business as an IC layout designer. Presently I am a subcontractor without assignment. My underlying livelihood is in the buying and selling of calendar spreads in my IRA. I say it is underlying because I do it weekly and can live well off it if need be. My oldest and fondest hobby is chess, although I'm not as good as a teenager. My next project is to learn Alpha Zero's favorite openings. The Google machine has effectively pruned 500 years of opening theory.
What else? Well, family and such.1 -
Horses, go figure. Gardening. Thats about it these days.1

I enjoy most anything outdoors. My kids and I have spent most of the summer at the creek behind our house swimming and building forts and sand castles haha. Like another member had mentioned, I also restore old furniture. But my biggest time probably goes to church. Gotta give thanks for all The Big Man has done. 😁Haha2

Too many for the time available!
-Cross stitch, mostly fantasy or halloween designs. Starting to branch out into embroidery and other needlepoint styles.
-Reading: fantasy, some sci-fi, some lite detective (think miss marple, not bourne)
-Video games: JRPG mostly. Play on all consoles. Currently playing Final Fantasy 14, Atelier Sophie & Mysterious book (PS4), Eden (visual novel on steam) and Nancy Drew PC Game. Fave series (that isn't the usual of Mario, Zelda, etc) is either "Tales of ..." or "Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons"1 -

I love to cook.
Go to a lot of concerts. Love live music. In fact, my wife and I have tickets to 5 Concerts between now and September.
I like to hike. Sounds like it is fitness related, but it's not. I usually grab a couple cigars each evening and head out for a 6 mile hike. Not for fitness' sake. For sanity's sake. Like hitting the reset button after a long day.
Between May and October, I usually spend a long time working in the lawn and garden.
Good lord that is some beautifully green grass. Would take cigar and lawn care suggestions from you any day.1 -

You sound a lot like me! I am everything to do with creativity! I also love music and sing a lot with my guitar, although probably shouldn't hahah.... but its fun. I have a piano and that will be my next project.I’m creative I’m passionate about all aspects of art design and making things.
I love music , I listen and sing along but I’m often told to shut up that I can’t sing haha and love dancing, clubbing .
I used to play lots of instruments but only have guitars in the house now, I used to sketch paint design and make costumes wedding dresses.
Love travelling too , used to be a dare devil and adrenaline junky but I’ve been reigned in on that too.0 -

I hear ya, I love the outdoors for sure! Haven't been camping in a while though. I need to. I'm going to get a kayak soon.cwolfman13 wrote: »Camping...and pretty much anything that gets me outdoors...a lot of which would fall under fitness I suppose. I just like being outside and doing stuff.0

I love games, but I also try and do more things away from the computer, when I'm not editing photo or video. I have a hybrid bike and I'm really starting to love riding.xFunctionalStrengthx wrote: »Archery (3D, target, bowhunting. I shoot both compound and recurve/longbow.)
Bicycling (Road, MTB)
Downhill skiing
Trap/skeet (along with other firearms and hunting)
Motorcycles (Dirtbike/Motocross, SuperMoto currently. Used to do trackdays on sportbikes)
Fishing (though, not as much as used to)
I used to be big into computers/games as hobbies. But, prefer to do things away from computer/TV since I work on a computer all day.

I love to sing, all kinds of music. When I go out I drag whoever is with me to Karaoke bars so I can sing in front of an audience. I force my children to have Karaoke contests at home with me, and when I am driving it is literally a concert featuring me. I also love to read, all kinds of books. I can read anything and find interest in it...even the back of a shampoo bottle.
If I could travel I would, all over the place, I also like to sit and day dream. I am pretty imaginative so I often people watch and make up stories about them.
haha I love people watching. Hollywood has the best or actually Venice Beach is the best. I love that you sing so much!0 -

I seriously consider that for the dogs to run around on.1 -
My hobbies are hunting, shooting, camping, and hiking. I also enjoy fishing as well. If I am outdoors I am happy!1

Piano is one of my favorite instruments! So beautiful!vinovinovino wrote: »Art, art history, fashion, gastronomy, music (I play classical piano), meditation, traveling, and my mom’s stubborn elitist dog who would only do tricks for organic peanut butter (she spoils him hard). He’s very cute though.
