Good morning! This is a fun little question. There are quite a few things I like to do for fun. I wonder if I can come up with just five, but we shall see. Let’s go!

First things first, and these are in no particular order, I like to eat (eat, eat, apples and bananaaaaaaaas). I really enjoy food, and experiencing new foods, especially culture-based foods. It’s like music to my soul. Next thing is listening to podcasts. I have a few that I catch every week just to enjoy some pop culture, comedy, and interesting conversations. Number 3 comes in hot at visiting art galleries. If I had to choose my favorites types, it would be abstract art and impressionism. Both have such a lovely mix of technique, composition, creativity and innovation.

Coming in at number four is watching anime. For the record, they are not cartoons. They are animated shows and movies that capture genres spanning from action and fantasy to drama and suspense. Also, they have some of the best storylines I’ve ever experienced. Reading is coming in hot as the last interest I’m sharing. I’ve already expressed my love of books quite a few times. I typically focus in on sci-fi, fantasy and cozy mysteries.

Looking at them, all these things have a common thread of experiencing culture in different ways. And that just brings more value to my life overall. It’s a blessing to experience others through their work and creativity.
