which hobby would you like to pick up, but never had a change to yet?

Photography, but that's hella expensive. Many articles tell you to use your phone first to learn about composition and other stuff, but that yields some bad images because my hands are too shaky so I would need something heavier or better at stabilization anyway

Playing an instrument. Either guitar, drums or mess with a keyboard.
Drums is the hardest to achieve from these tho.

Artwork/drawing things. I used to do some scribbles when I was little, and even took a figure drawing class in college, but it's one of those things where I've never had the discipline to keep working to get good.

Miniature live steam. Preferably 5inch gauge or 3½. Both gauges are powerful enough to haul a few full grown humans around a groundlevel/raised circuit.

But the hobby is expensive, and model engineering techniques take time to learn, and then there's having to do annual rebuilds and boiler pressure testing etc.

Skiing. I have done it a few times but would like to get better, and we don't have very snowy weather here.
