Well, actually, I think we should balance our outdoor and indoor time because our bodies need a break from cognitive work. For me, doing a sport is very suitable. In addition, I also sometimes like to sit at a café, chat with my friends, or go for a run or a walk. My most interesting activity is going fishing. I like fishing very much, and I enjoy every moment of it.
