A hobby is a favourite occupation of a person. Hobbies differ like tastes. Some people like gardening or travelling, others prefer reading or doing sports, and the others enjoy knitting and sewing, or collecting stamps. If you have chosen a hobby to your liking, you have made your life more interesting.
Sometimes it is difficult to find time for a hobby because of your work or studies. But when I am free, I try to spend my spare time on my hobby.
I like reading, painting, listening to music, going to the cinema of theatre. But most of all I’ am keen on collecting stamps. I began collecting at school. The fact is I had some pen-friends in different countries. It was fun to exchange stamps with them. I’ve enriched my collection since then. And now I’ve got three big albums. Every time I look through my stamps, I remember my friends and forget my problems. It helps me to relax and feel happy.
