Your hobbies

[Skipp]

I was looking for a similar topic on the forums but couldn't find one so I decided to start it myself.

Obviously, you're all gamers - doesn't take a braniac to know that, but what are your other hobbies? What do you do in your spare time?

I play piano/keyboards and guitars in various bands (soul/blues/jazzy/pop/southern rock mostly) and I did a couple of covers for some of my lovely singers.

Also, 3 years ago I decided it was about time to get my fat ass into shape so i started riding a bike and fell in love with it ever since. When home, I have a big mountain right above the city and 2 huge parks with lots of woody-areas, and once my summer vacation starts, I go back to my hometown on the island and pedal my way through the lovely Mediterranean surroundings (hot as hell though )

Here's a small gallery

I am not touching that.....



On a personal note I am a lazy nerd through n through. So no sports for me, hence my current fitness level :\
Anyhoo.

For the last few years I have been less into gaming and more into Audio/video entertainment aka setting up a hone theater. Not that gaming doesn't benefit

Granted my screen is merely 1080p, but playing skyrim and other shooters etc on 'real' sound system is something I would recommend. Now I just need to find a fix for my comp so I can get it working with proper surround again and build a cockpit...

Interesting topic!

Besides gaming I am a football fan (that's soccer for anyone across the pond). Used to have a season ticket at Bruges FC and did several away games both in Belgium as well as European matches. Since I have kids and in the process of building a house, priorities have shifted somewhat but the aim is to pick it up again as soon as everything falls a bit into place.

Besides that I am a HAM radio operator, talking to people all over the world. No rig at the moment though because I live in an apartment

Mine hobbies include Camping, Writing (duh!), and Motorcycling.

I had to sell my Bike before moving to Switzerland, and I am hoping that I can get another bike in the near future. Have borrowed a friends to ride around a bit and I was drooling on the roads here.

The wife and I are looking at a new tent for next year, and seriously considering getting a caravan. The serenity of sleeping outside after sitting around a camp fire in the evening is one of the best things in life.

i have a little 32-track recording studio set up at home, but i don't use it anywhere near as much as i should. i bought a new guitar last week in the hope it would entice me back in there but it hasn't happened yet. maybe tonight.

Hobbies, eh?

- playing guitar, writing / recording music, gigging with band

this includes all the clichés and guilty pleasures like:
- consuming food and (lots of) beverages, inhaling smoke from mostly legal substances...

- taking care of my pet bunnies, reading books and taking a nap on the weekend after a good lunch

[Skipp]

I love how you just went from inhaling substances to taking care of bunnies LOL

hopefully those bunnies are not a product of those said substances

bunnies rock. (except when they chew on electrical wiring and dig huge holes under the back fence.)
