Hobby is free, it is an interest towards an action but when it comes from action to materialize it, it’s no longer free , it costs you.
Photography, I was once only a point and shoot until my desire of great photos obsessing me to get my first DSLR that I was deemed as tedious, complicated(still does), expensive(very $). I still remembered the rainy night riding a bike to get my first Nikon D40. I knew DSLR is a huge investments for upgrading from a tiny little thing ranging from thousands and more, it is a never ending roads that I don’t regret.
Cycling, influenced from my brother when we were kids. I had a bmx and he had a road bike. It was until last year I had a group cycling with my past tense girl and I’m now getting back to pedaling again and meet a group of nice buddies with great enthusiast on minivelo. The first folding bike I’m having was bought thru online, a made in china now in a clinic. Another investments for second bike, which i am satisfy at the moment, a blue java foldie from minivelo. If looking for an upgrade it too costs a lot to thousands and more, haha now it looks that hobby does cost a penny, to feed them money is the source =)
Ya ho…my hobby is snoopy also $$$..even less than u many many roads =p
some hobby cannot be valued from $, it is by the perception of how you appreciate it. keeping on it.
