When I was about 7 or 8 I discovered comic books at the corner store! They quickly became an obsession that over the course of the next 40 years I amassed well over 100 000 issues of thousands of titles! I have near complete runs of most titles I collected from the late 70s to the early 2010s. My favourite part of this hobby was the joy of reading incredible storylines and making friends from all over the city. My best friend is a co-founder of the Montreal comicon we met in kindergarten if you can believe that!
Let's talk about your hobbies

What is a hobby you're practicing or learnt recently ?
For me, it's the guitar. I've been playing since a bit now. I love it π

Wow impressive my older has 3 years and half and dont manage to focus more than 5 minutes. I hope it will get better later but for now its hard to do complex think like you do with your child. Or im just bad at it :p

To be fair, it's far from being easy. If that can be of any use for you, what I do is I explain them upfront what we will be doing and I give them small responsabilities that they have to accomplish. I usually takes about 5 times longer than it should, but that's fine by me.

Its make sens. Thanks for the feed back i will try. But i dont no if i have enough patience to manage the 5 times longer part π

Omg all your hobbies are quite nice. The brewing sounds really awesome @Mathieu T. 88438 .
Ohhh I hope you will keep practicing guitar @Nicolas R. 33721. Iβve tried in the past, but I kind of gave up. My fingers hurt a lot and Iβm kind of weak in general.π
For myself, Iβm really into arts :) Iβm trying to draw more and right now Iβm motivated to learn the basic of 3d (I was more into 2d before). I know it has already been 1 week since the last reply, but just seen this and it sounded really interesting and a friendly thread.

I always wanted to improve my French. I am now starting to implement a regular schedule of learning French everyday for 15-20 minutes. Small steps to success.
Apart from that: hitting the gym and, once the pandemic is over, back to regular trips :)
4 -
Good luck its more often the other wait around (french people who learn english like myself). French is nice but sometime too complicated for nothing. Mais parler plusieurs langue est toujours un plus dans la vie a mon avis :)
And yes i know my english need many hours for improving :)

Mechanical Keyboard (The vintage kind principally) and Anime. I really love my Alps SKCM Orange and Alps SKCM Blue Vintage keyboard from the 1980'S. Converting those board to USB's a nice relaxing hobby. I wish i had $2000 for buying a IBM Beamspring from the 1970'S.
