Hobbies
A hobby is a favorite pastime of a person. Hobbies differ like tastes. If you have chosen a hobby to your liking, lucky you are: you have made your life more interesting.
What are hobbies for some people are professions for others: a game tester may enjoy cooking as a hobby, while a professional chef might enjoy playing computer games. Generally speaking, the person who does something for fun is called an amateur (or hobbyist), as a distinct from a professional.
Numerous hobbies can be subdivided into four large groups: doing things, making things, collecting things, and learning things.
The most popular of all hobby groups is doing things. It includes a wide variety of activities, everything from gathering to traveling and from chess to volleyball. Gathering is one of the oldest man’s hobbies, especially in some countries (Britain, for example). A relatively new hobby which is becoming more popular is computer games.
Gardening is the art of growing plants with the goal of crafting a purposeful landscape. A garden typically is located on the land near a residence; it may also be located in a roof, in an atrium, on a balcony, on a window box, or on a vivarium. Gardening also takes place in non-residential green areas, such as parks (botanical gardens or zoological gardens), amusement and theme parks, around tourist attractions and hotels. Indoor gardening is concerned with the growing of houseplants within a residence or building, in a greenhouse. Indoor gardens are sometimes incorporated as part of air conditioning or heating systems. Water gardening is concerned with growing plants adapted to pools and ponds. A simple water garden may consist of a tub containing the water and plants.
