For example, I play the drums and tend to think of myself as a drummer. Do you love games, consider yourself a gamer? Are you a chef, a bodybuilder, maybe an artist? What is it that you love to do?

[-] CascadianGiraffe@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

Years ago I adopted the identifier 'Cascadian' as I fit most of the stereotypes.

(Referring to those of us that live in/around the Cascade mountain range.)

I know it's not 'a hobby' but being native to the PNW, it really is a lifestyle. We're out playing in the wilderness, hunting, fishing, enjoying the rain. We smell a little like moss & dirt with a hint of patchouli. We grown our own food and prefer our animals over people most of the time. I'm about to move across the country and I have no idea what my life will be like. I spend 90% of my free time outside in wilderness where most of my 'hobbies' take place.
