7. Metal Detecting

Haha, this reminds me of people on the beach– scouting and combing the sand for coins. Well jokes aside, metal detecting is quite the ‘in-thing’ these days. And the best part is that you never know what you are going to find– historical artefacts, coins, jewellery, scrap and much more. The possibilities are endless. Do you know that many people have found fortunes and treasures worth millions of dollars while pursuing metal detecting as a hobby? I’m sure you wouldn’t mind stumbling upon hidden treasure while you are strolling in the park with your metal detector!
8. Collecting

I know that ‘collecting’ is a vague term, but it’s deliberate. The reason why I’ve left it so generic is that ‘collecting’ is not limited to a few particular items. From sane collections of stamps, cars, coins, pens and more to insane collection of coke cans, bubble wraps, bras, and some other crazy things– collecting ‘things’ is satisfying. I think what draws people to this hobby is the feeling of making your own empire with your collection. Is there anything in particular that amuses you or ignites your fancy? Start collecting it and watch your collection grow larger than life.
9. Reading

Okay, let me warn you – reading is like diving into biggest ocean, the material is very vast and you will lose your way. In a good way of course! Even celebrities like Madonna, Maria Sharapova, Beyonce and many more immerse themselves in books to experience a world away from all the hustle and bustle of their lives. Fiction, romance, suspense, love, action, thrillers and even erotic stories – the options are endless. Believe me, this hobby will keep you entertained whether you are on your cosy couch at home or baking on the beaches of Hawaii.
10. Dancing

No, you don’t need to be Shakira to shake that thing! Dancing is very liberating and a superb form of expression. As a hobby, you can focus on a specific style of dance or simply pick up shaking a leg at the local dance club. Ballet, Salsa, Jive, Belly, Ballroom, Tap, Hip-Hop, Contra, Cha-Cha-Cha, Rumba and much more– the styles are varied and very, very exciting. And hey, what better a hobby to keep you fit, slim and sexy? Dancing is a superb way to burn away those nasty calories.
A hobby is not something that you ‘do’; it is an activity that gives you pleasure and satisfaction. If you think that you have time to pursue a hobby, go through these top hobbies again, pick your fancy and take the plunge. Once you get really involved, you won’t have time for other things!
