I intend to live a healthy long life.
My Personal Spare Time Interests and Activities. My hobbies are paid by me and no-one else.
A healthy long life
I intend to have a very long healthy life and I'm aiming to become over 150 years old, that is achievable and a realistic estimate in this century in some countries.
A lot of people will have very long healthy lives in the future.
Water
In all forms and the common theme in my art is water.
Spare time activities
Based on my interests and current needs.
I walk in all seasons.
Seeking the sun in spring and summer. A good year and the sun is already shining in February.
Walking
Walking is a form of exercise that does not allow tax deductions or subsidies. Walking is healthy and a healthier form of exercise than many other tax-deductible/subsidized forms of exercise. Staying healthy should be promoted right? Currently something else is promoted.
I walk in all seasons.
I walk a lot on my vacation wherever I am.
Gin & Whisky & Brandy & Beer
Whisky and brandy can be used for health purposes - autumn and winter are nasty periods.
Gin goes well with fish and seafood - no matter of season.
Beer goes with anything.
I have always consumed alcohol moderately.
Since I do not eat or drink a lot, I will not eat or drink anything that I do not like or attend dinner parties in people's homes.
As my form of exercise does not allow tax deductions or subsidies, I have decided to stay away from alcohol as much as possible to not increase my taxes further.
I've come across a non-pharmaceutical non-alcoholic alternative for health purposes that seems to work, but it's not fully tested - if it works as well as whisky then whisky and brandy will be out from my shopping list. In the long run, the alternative is more expensive than whiskey or any other pharmaceutical drug and it's much healthier.
Behaviors around the globe
I'm familiar with Swedish, American, British and Aussi behavior in certain situations. The rest of the world and how they respond to different situations in life, are completely unknown to me.
Countries that would like to have visiting tourists should somehow explain normality in their countries since they can differ significantly.
My tolerance levels are higher than normal. I'm interested in art and I grow up with people that stretched all boundaries that existed.
I have been working in many companies with different acceptance levels. I like to increase my levels of acceptance within my interests and those who cannot follow are left behind.
A high level of tolerance and acceptance is a very calm and relaxing place.
Eco-friendly lifestyle
Today I have an exceptionally low waste profile in everything. I've never liked take-away or leftovers and I don't buy more than I can consume and need for what I cook. If I eat out, I eat at a restaurant and I leave the leftovers there.
I have changed how I invest and shop for my IT, art, food, everything for my home and I changed how and what I shop and how I travel. This has been an ongoing process as long as I have lived in Stockholm, larger cities offer opportunities for change with an environmental twist if you are interested.
I have a very environmentally friendly lifestyle and there isn't much more I can do to lower it even more. The main reason I have achieved a very eco-friendly lifestyle is that I live in a big city.
Larger cities offer opportunities for changes in lifestyle for those who are open to change. The price you pay for an eco-friendly lifestyle is time and money, if you can't change your time parameters, money doesn't matter - time management and delegation skills do. The delegation part costs.
Trees
Swedish trees and fruit trees have a connection to gardening, art, the color black and health.
Gardens
The building where I live has a small garden in the back yard.
I have a small indoor garden in my apartment. It is healthy and it is also my contribution to the environment and its health.
I also have an IT hobby garden which is my website. My website is regularly replanted and rearranged when it has grown too large.
Each garden you plant generates a small harvest depending on what you have planted.
Each garden costs money but generates no money back.
Staying healthy
Staying healthy is a necessary hobby.
From a health perspective it can be important to know where you originate from.
