= Hobbies around the world. =

By Sandra Reyes Aramis.
Hobbies are something we all have, to distract ourselves from our daily routine. These help us stimulate our creativity and give us a moment of happiness and enjoyment.

Unusual hobbies
Not all hobbies are what people would consider conventional or normal, there are some hobbies that are "weird" because of the activities they involve, sometimes they are even dangerous. Some of these hobbies are...:

Beetle Fighting
This is what it sounds like: people putting insects against one another in small arenas.

It’s more than just some people playing with bugs when they’re bored. They film the matches and post them online, take bets, and some even breed the best fight-worthy beetles for the competition.

Toy voyaging
Did you know that your toys can have wacky wonderful adventures on their own?

Toy voyaging is a hobby where you can send your toy off on a vacation somewhere around the world. You can even host another hobbyist’s toy on vacation too. People take photos of their toy seeing the sights and taking part in activities, as well as filling out travel journals.

Soap Carving
This artistic hobby is definitely not as intense as the one above, much more suited to creative and calm individuals. This is about carving intricate works of art into soap. The use of special tools and techniques is needed to really create something amazing out of blocks and bars of soap.

Many people like to share their creations in time-lapse videos on social media, or share their skills on YouTube.

Quidditch}
Any Harry Potter fan would appreciate this wonderful sport that has come to life. People around the world play Quidditch, especially in colleges and universities.

These real-life games don’t exactly have flying brooms and magic in their equipment and rules – but the human-adapted game is still fun to try.

Geocaching
Move of fantasy pirates, you can go on a treasure hunt in real life with Geocaching. This hobby uses satellites to locate small boxes of treasures and trinkets to be swapped.

It’s actually free to do, and there’s a logbook to sign each one that is found.

Witchcraft
Witchcraft is actually a very well-practiced art for many people around the world. Modern practices might follow Paganism, Wicca, or Brujeria. Many people in different cultures around the world work with herbs, crystals, trinkets, and spells to heal disease, manifest, and make prophecies about the future.

Tattooing Vehicles
This hobby began in Taiwan, where a pensioner enjoys tattooing Buddist text onto cars. But it also seems like anyone who paints cars in an artistic way is considered to be part of this hobby. You’ll need to have some skill in painting, plus access to cars that you can actually paint (without people freaking out that you’re doing it) so it’s not the easiest hobby to get into.

Element collecting
Element collecting is where you collect each chemical element from the periodic table. You might find a use for the element you collect, or simply collect them without any practical reasons. This one requires study and knowledge to understand the elements.

You can get high-quality samples of each one, or find the element in everyday use. Be careful of the safety level of the element, depending on which state it is in.

My favorite hobbie <3.
I don't enjoy doing activities as “weird” as the previous ones, but my favorite hobby when I have free time, besides singing, is putting on makeup.

I love doing makeup, it is an activity that requires a lot of practice and patience but over time I have been improving and I love the results, I look pretty. :) Here are some examples <3
