Drinking. It makes other people interesting.

 

THIS.

 

scuba diving, mountain biking, plus weekly blasts through the santa monica mountains in my gallardo

 

Sounds like heaven! All three things I want to do before I'm 30!

 

 

 

You'll never see anyone sad playing a musical instrument. I find music therapeutic, and try to play guitar more and more often (used to play much more than I do now). Escaping to music is a great way to relax and get the daily grind off your mind.

Just got my open water cert this past weekend. Love it so far.

 

Driving, Wrenching on my car (activities when I had a car). When I move back to the states, I plan on getting a 63-65 Lincoln Continental Convertible.

 

Reading occasionally

Boating (Motor only, sailing is too much work)

Beach

Lake

Pool

Pretty much anything that involves bodies of water.

Music... some might call me an audiophile, but I'd just call myself a music lover who appreciates sound quality.

When I have access to a wood shop, I like to do a bit of woodworking too. Here's my last project.

Fun to build, and fun to play too.

 

I could probably list a hundred other things that keep me entertained, but these days most of my other hobbies aren't quite as relaxing as music. I've gotten into parkour, freerunning, rock climbing, cycling, and alpine snowboarding in the last few years.

What kind of wood is that? Looks very interesting. My dad makes custom knifes so he is always looking/showing me different woods for handles.

My favorite relaxing hobby is to hike. I really enjoy being outside in the sun on a trail headed to a lake to relax for a few hours. I am fortunate to have a lot of beautiful areas within a short distance from my home. I feel much more centered and at peace when I return.

Nothing helps me relax more than the possibility of falling off a rock to my death.

Lets not forget the possibility of sliding down the rock to your death...

As long as sudden death is a possible outcome, I really zone out.

I thought the point of those pics was to show that deep in the woods is where you can relax because no one is going to hear her scream, and even if they do, people slide off rocks all the time!
