I’ll start. I have recently gotten into 3D printing, and, while incredibly frustrating sometimes, there’s nothing more rewarding than getting a perfect print.
Calligraphy. The color of the inks are just mesmerizing. But my normal handwriting is really ugly…
I realized a while ago that my true hobby is learning. I love learning new things such as:
- Ukulele
- Tin whistle
- Juggling
- Kendama
- Unicycling
- Ham radio (and morse code and electronics)
- Esperanto
- Fencing
- Sailing
- Krav Maga
- Swing and Ballroom Dancing
I’ve learned bit of all of these, master of none though…
Mi ankaŭ lernas esperanton!
I’ve been at it for a bit over a year, casually chipping away at it on Duolingo. I have a feeling I’m probably in pretty much the same boat as you, there’s no particular reason I’m learning it, just kind of seemed like something different to do.
And I dabble in a bit of ham radio, but I don’t do much with it, and I’m curious if this has been your experience as well. I think the biggest problem with ham radio is other hams, because for a lot of them their biggest hobbies is ham radio so all they want to talk about is ham radio. Don’t get me wrong, I think antennas are cool too, but surely they must have something else going on in their life worth chatting about.
