V’stars, the world is our oyster. So many interesting things to do and experiences to feel. I know there’s tremendous talent in all of us. I’m curious of what you hobby(s) is!
For me, I recently discovered my extreme liking for photography. What started out as a need for more images for Vanae.com, turned into…Damn, I really really like photography!
You’ve seen some of it during my HUG America roadtrip. And I finally set-up an Etsy shop to showcase my photography. (In case you’re interested in any prints, contact me directly. I can personalize it for you and it costs less).
My hobbies are photography and singing/playing the guitar. So for this week’s game, share what your hobby is and a link of it below!
BTW- Here’s the first epiode of the year, on the topic of going full force to pursue your dreams/passion and not letting negativity get in the way. Plus, 8 months of practicing the guitar..and here I am:
My interests are aikido, boxing and working out. i also enjoy skiing. But unfortuneately i live in the uk, so i dont get to do it to often.
hey v’star dan,
funny that you mention aikido. i’ve been reading a book about it:
‘the intuitive body’ by wendy palmer
realy what is the book like?
The art of training in Ki (intention)sensitvity and learning how to meet the needs of the attacker.
Its like real life but in fighting form. you can apply the same principles of aikido to people's relations with each other.

Hey Vanae
Well my biggest hobbies would be photography, drawing and hopefully soon, modeling and dancing.
Here’s the link to my DeviantArt gallery/account, I have some phoyography and drawings in there.

and the link i forgot to put in there
hey cutie,
i like your photography, though i wish deviant let you post bigger images so i can see more of the work, more clearly
keep rocking it!
thank you
actually once ur on the page with the photo, on your left there is a button saying “Full view” or just click the image and you can see it larger.
I’m trusting u’ll take splendid pictures with ur new cannon
Hi Vanae!
I love your videos and messages!. I’m also passionate about photography (I’ve got a contract with a NYC photo agency) And I’m also going to learn how to play guitar (finally!) Recently got a fantastic vintage Morris acoustic. You’re an awesome resource for us, Vanae! Keep up the passion!
hey v’star tom,
do you have a link to your photography?
ah yes, love the guitar. how long have you been playing?
and thanks for the kind works.
My current hobby is funsway; but I’m still doing the research on styles & all that blah blah girly stuff. I’ll eventually figure out that I might find interior decorating to actually be what I like, & might not truly grasp the concept of funsway, currently.
I would say gaming is a hobby; but I intend to make money at it.
Designing and programming websites is both a profession and a hobby of mine. The design for this website you are on right now was created in my free time for Vanae out of sympathy for her goals and her personality, and to enable her to reach you v’stars even better.
Photography too is both a hobby and part of my profession. You can view some of the pictures I shot for fun on my flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/capslockchris/
I taught myself how to play the guitar and I’m working on writing and home-recording my music now. Improvising music is a great way to relax, and gather your thoughts. It’s vital to me, and I can warmly recommend improvising to everyone.
i like your photography.
but you already know that.
I agree with you and think that a hobby can really make a difference in a person’s life. My latest hobby is making knives. The metal the wood together give knife making a very organic feel in a hobby. The designs and styles are unlimited so every hobby has its own advantages but as for me I like to make knives!
knives? that’s interesting.
do you have a website that shows your knives? would love to see
Sports have always been a hobby especially baseball, football and basketball. I try to stay as active as possible nowadays. Very stress alleviating.
Recently, I’ve started doing stand up. I’m horrified of public speaking and what started as a way to conquer this fear has sort of turned into a hobby.
I love writing jokes! One of my unused monitors on my desk has about 30 post its with different ideas for bits. Love it love it!
jokes??
do you have jokes to share with our v’stars??
Vanae,
What camera do you use??
hey there, depends on which photo set.
if you’re referring to the ‘free hugs’ trip or the flea market, i was using my friend’s Canon 50D.
the sf adventures are on a Canon 5D, i believe
My favorite: Salsa Dancing….
