In my blog yesterday I talked about my daily life how I balance music and my work lifestyle. Today I’m going to talk about my hobbies and interests and what other things I enjoy to relax and unwind away from my full time job & music life.
While my full time job and music is a huge part of my life, I have plenty of other interests and hobbies that keep me busy when I’m not performing, composing, or editing tracks. Here’s a little insight into what I get up to away from work and music.
Staying Active at the Gym
Once a week, I hit the gym to stay active and improve my fitness. It’s a great way to clear my mind, de-stress, and keep myself feeling good.
Supporting Others on Their Slimming Journey
I’m also part of the Slimming World social team, where I assist my lovely consultant Tracy Haggart in running her group. Helping others stay motivated and work towards their weight loss goals is really rewarding, and it’s great to be part of a supportive community.
Website Development – A Creative Outlet
Many of you might not know that I’m a freelance website developer. In fact, if you’re reading this blog, you’re on one of the websites I’ve built! I enjoy the challenge of creating and maintaining websites, whether for personal projects or clients. It’s another way for me to express creativity, just like music.
A Passion for Transport and Travel
I’ve always been a transport nerd, fascinated by everything from trains to boats and planes. Whenever I get the opportunity, I love to travel and experience different modes of transport. Whether it’s a scenic railway journey, a boat trip, or a flight to somewhere new, I’m always up for an adventure.
Thrills at Theme and Water Parks
Another favorite pastime of mine is visiting the theme and water parks along with my very good friends Adam & Ross. There’s something exciting about the rush of a rollercoaster or the splash of a water ride. It’s a great way to unwind and enjoy some fun outside of my usual routine.
Finding Balance
Balancing work, music, and these hobbies keeps my life interesting and varied. Whether it’s staying active, helping others, creating websites, exploring transport, or seeking thrills at theme parks, I love having different ways to enjoy life beyond my main passions.
