One of the few things that the pandemic left us was that as people we began to think beyond and decided to do something more than just stay home, exercise, series or movies were no longer as entertaining as before, that’s why that other hobbies began to emerge.
Build Legos, take care of plants, paint, make journaling or weave have been the choice of millennials and generation Z who are definitely taking their newly acquired tastes and hobbies to another level.
However, wanting to do something is not synonymous with success, many times we want to learn to paint but we are not that good or we get desperate putting together a Lego, the point is that, as long as you find something you like, it is worth trying until you are everything an expert on the subject.
