I do try to take time off and enjoy the stuff I like other than managing projects.
Walking pet, reading watching some good movie and catching on the missed episodes of "Inside West Coast Customs".
Najim, thanks for sharing nice though

Sante - you crack me up... I suppose one way to not be surprised by a Black Swan is to eat one :-)!

I'm coming in late on this thread but my hobbies (in no particular order) are:

- Reading (non-fiction & fiction)
- Working out at the gym
- Golf (weekly when weather permits!)
- Baking (I've a very sweet tooth)
- Evolving my palate for red wine and single malt Scotch
- Binge-watching Netflix original content

I don't include my blogging and presenting here as that is very much related to project management...

Kiron, "TOO LATE THE HERO" no it is never late for you you must remember that movie. You have a quite nice collections

I'll take red wine from that list. I forgot to add watching UFC. Been addicted to that for over a decade now.
Sante, likewise I do watch UFC, Boxing match the big ones.

Used to be marathon MTB racing, now its trail running. Also skateboarding, contributions and active in some Linux communities, but no so much this past year.

Not as a participant, I especially enjoy european cycling and other sports in general, and listening to radio programs and podcasts.
Andrew, that's cool this is the secret for healthy living, nice though

Everything in your life is relevant to project management because people performs project management from the time they wake up to the time they go to bed. In my case, I am Certified Professional Tennis Coach Level I where I got that certification from ITF, ATP and AAT. The certification is earned after long time of work on the field and mainly long time to study about science applied to tennis.
Sergio, That's very nice and it requires big stamina, this is really wonderful to see that you are certified even in your hobby. congrats

Very true, I eat Black Swan.
Sante, was Mila Kunis in the black swan, in that case I will eat with you,

However if you meant (Cygnus atratus) the large waterbird, a species of swan which breeds mainly in the southeast and southwest regions of Australia, hunted by M?ori then I will not join :)

Vincent I also do gardening but the problem here we have very short window of summer from mid May to August rest is all cold and covered by snow.
Imagin last year I took out my cucumber from the green house in April then Frost came in and all died I have to re do it in May this is an example of cost of quality rework :)

Sante, you do not like Red Wine ?
I love red wine, I think my wording wasn't good. What I mean from Kiron's list is I only like red wine from that list for myself lol. I'm half Italian, we drank red wine as kids ;-)
