What hobbies did you pick up during the pandemic and have you been able to keep them up?

I had been wanting to learn how to play the guitar for years, but laziness, i guess, kept me from it. I picked it up with moderate seriousness and am very greatful i did. I wish i would've started sooner.

Don’t know that I’d call it a hobby exactly, but a habit at least. Finally working out.

I needed something since I was always home and just felt weak. Got a set of adjustable dumbbells and a small lifting bench.

3 years later and they are still by my desk, used 3 times a week!

I would consider that a hobby. There are many ways we can find exercise. You've found one you can regularly incorporate into your life. Like a hobby!

I did the same thing. My wife had bought a set of dumbbells and a bench a couple of years before COVID, but I never used it until the lockdown when I got bored and started lifting. I still try to do it 5 days a week while doing yoga the other 2, but I do skip days if I have a lot going on.
