Topic in English hobby. My hobby essay in English with translation

Hobby is a person's favorite occupation, something that he likes doing in free time. It is very important for us to do what we are really interested in and what we are good at. It lets us show our worth and become aware of the importance and usefulness of our life.

Usually people choose hobbies according to their interests. Some people are fond of collecting different things. They collect coins, postcards, toys, objects of art and stamps. I have a friend Vika. Collecting coins is her hobby. She is a numismatist and her collection includes about 100 different coins. Others like to draw pictures or they are fond of singing. Thus, everything depends on the person.

As far as my interests are concerned, my favorite occupation is reading. I like to read story books, detectives, historical books and any kind of material that I find interesting. I like to read because my grandmother always read me some fairy tales and stories during my childhood. When I was about 10 my parents always bought me books to read. They always told me that habit of reading is one of the best traits that a man can brag. Now I read about anything that is available. Reading enables me to learn about so many new things. I learn about some historical facts, different human achievements, space travel and other fascinating things of our world. My room is full of different books and I dream of becoming a writer.

my younger brother, on the opposite, is not hopping to make his computer hobby his future profession. He just plays computer games and doesn’t see any sense in combining career with hobby. It simply became his favorite activity in his leisure time and is helping him relax. I respect his choice. But anyway it is great when your hobby is your profession.

An example of a hobby story in English

Example

I have several hobbies and each of them is equally important to me. First of all, I cannot imagine my life without learning foreign languages. It's so interesting to compare English with Spanish, Russian with German and so on. I have found out that there are a lot of English words in my native language too. This idea makes me look for more common features and share them with others. It's wonderful to understand foreign music and popular movies.

When I have some free time, I tend to embroider something. This helps me relax and I seem to inherit it from my grandma. She also enjoyed sitting with a needle in the evenings before TV. I like presenting embroidered pictures to my friends. Such things are better than gifts from the shop.

Reading is my third favorite pastime. It’s a good idea to read before bedtime to focus on something different from work and get ready to sweet dreams!

My hobby is reading comics. I enjoy reading comics when I have free time. I started to do it when I was three years old. The first time I did it, I felt delighted. So I kept reading comics. The teachers always taught me that comics are useless. I think they are wrong. I know a lot of serious comics. I enjoy reading comics because it can make me calm and relaxed after a hard day in a school. I can learn the different cultures and customs of other countries in the world by reading comics like Persepolis. I read at least two hours every day. I usually read it at home. I have many comics and I want more.
