With such a beautiful world surrounding us, why not try out some hobbies that are based in the #outdoors? Hopefully, some of these hobbies listed below will inspire you to want to go outside, look at the beautiful world surrounding us, breathe in the fresh air, and try something new.
1. Gardening
Not everyone may have a green thumb but it’s good to give #gardening a try. It’s very pleasing to see all the fruits and vegetables you’ve grown on your own. Not to mention, you get fresh fruits and #vegetables right out of your own home-grown garden! Another great thing you can plant is flowers. Flowers brighten up your yard, making you feel a sense of peace.
2. Astronomy
Looking above into the unknown brings calmness to some people. The peace and quiet of the night provide you with the opportunity to be alone with your thoughts and de-stress from the day’s activities.
3. Bird Watching
Many people have the same wish: for life to slow down. #Watching the #birds fly above us, seemingly having not a care in the world, brings people a sense of peace, curiosity, and anticipation for the upcoming events.
4. Cloud Watching
Looking at the clouds above us stimulates our imagination. It’s always so much fun trying to decide if a cloud looks like a dog, pig, or penguin riding a bicycle. There’s no age limit to this hobby; children and adults can both equally enjoy this activity.
5. Butterfly Watching
Like bird watching, watching all the different coloured butterflies fly around, not seeming to care, brings upon a sense of #curiosity about bigger and greater things in life.
6. Bonsai Trees
This hobby allows you to grow trees in small pots in such a way that they look #artistic, old, and interesting. This outdoor activity allows you to be #creative and #imaginative. This hobby is believed to have originated in China but is now practised all over the world.
7. Camping
When some people think of camping they think of peaceful rivers, the quiet of a forest, and crackling campfires. For those people, camping brings a sense of peace and calmness. However, others who are asked to think about camping think of mud, bugs, and fears of animals attacking you. For those people, #camping is not as fun and not nearly as relaxing. Before deciding to go on a camping trip, know whether or not you’d enjoy sleeping in the woods for a couple of nights.
8. Travel
Travelling to places you’ve never been can provide you with many #lessons about yourself as a human and about the different cultures surrounding that specific place. Travelling to new places is stimulating to many #people, making it one of the most popular outdoor hobbies today.
Not everyone enjoys the outdoors, but for people who do, some of these hobbies may be a great thing to add to their everyday life.
