Ask HN: What kind of hobby should I take?

Climbing is a good one. It gets you out of the house, usually out of the city. It engages your mind just as much as your body, and sooner or later you get bored with the stuff nearby and leads you to travel for new climbs. There's also ice climbing in the winter.

Does this hobby depend on where you are located? I assume some people have better places to go than others, but I can't think of a single place near me to even try this (Ohio).

Also generally getting into this hobby alone seems hard.

See if there are any gyms near you! Also, the climbing community in general is very welcoming. I've met tons of really nice people by just hanging around the gym, and I'm not a particularly social person
