I started to read books when I was Grade 3, 8 years old. I read any kinds of books like comic, story, newspaper, magazine, novella and fiction and so on. Reading books is a good hobby and gave me lots of critical thinking, decision making, problem solving, and how to live; communicate with others people in everyday life. I still recognizable the book I read name is " Pollyanna".

And then I also like cooking. I started to cook when I was 10 years old. My mother taught me how to cook steam rice and some soups.

And I also like to cook dessert.










This dessert is very easy to cook. They include glutinous rice, sago, coconut and palm sugar.

ELLA- MY HOBBY

My hobby- I have a lot of hobby one of my hobbies is to listen to music. For me, music is like my friend and my consultants. Listening to music takes the stress away from my mind. When I wake up the first thing I do is listening to music. In our life, almost the answer is in the music. I have some examples of this...⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇



Sometimes many people don't know why they are living on Earth and they don't know when they die where they will going to. So some music has an answer for us. This is some of the answer(https://youtu.be/Mflekg7ieX0)



Listening to music takes the stress away from my mind. Music is my passion.

My Hobby

Hobbies play an important part in our life. They keep us busy in spare hours and make life happy. They make us forget our worries and give us inspiration. they make life interesting and pleasant. They give us energy and teach us the dignity of labour.


I have too many hobbies hahaha.... But the one I like most is gardening. It is pleasant and economical


I have always had a love for nature and have admired flowers and plants. Gardening gives us a lot of exercises. It teaches us to work with own hands. It brings us into close contact with nature. This kind of physical exercise is delightful and enjoyable.


Gardening teaches us the wonders of plant life. We learn how and when particular kinds of flowers and plants grow what conditions are necessary for hair growth what habits they have and under what favourable circumstances they can thrive. In gardening, we read the very book of nature.


Gardening adds to beauty of the spot and adds to our comfort health .We enjoy the fresh air.The sweet smelling flowers make the air fragrant. It refreshes the brain and invigorates the body.

MY HOBBY PHOTOGRAPHY - Swathi

Hello Friends,

I am going to tell about my Hobby, yes am very much excited to share  about my experience in Photography. In India a women photographer is very rare to see but my father encourage me to study more about camera. I joined my course and in the mean time I applied for my part time job to help myself for my study expenses. after my studies it became my professional and my hobby(I can say my life). Capturing at right time is very much fun, now everybody love to take photos all having their smartphone but having a professional camera and capturing is very good.

Probably the only really tough part is to decide what kind of photography you would like to focus on – while some people enjoy landscape photography, some specialize in portraits and some love children, nature and wildlife photography.

Ultimately, you will become a good photographer only by going out there and shooting pictures. Here are some tips that will help you develop your photography skills.

- Make sure you always carry your camera. Why miss some wonderful pictures simply because you forgot to bring your camera?

- Get really familiar with your camera. Try out all the features it has, several times over. You don’t want to fumble when it comes to figuring out what that sign on your camera means when there is a really exclusive shot waiting to be taken.

- The more pictures you shoot, the better you get. This is easier with a digital camera as the number of photos you can take is unlimited. Take several pictures of the same thing from different angles. Apart from preserving your memories, it helps you analyse how you can improve. By critiquing your own pictures you can figure out how it could be better composed. Watch for flaws and learn from them.

 

- Even if you have learned the basics of photography, you must still respect your instincts for the right angle when you click a picture.

- Always back up your work. Each picture you click is an original – and who knows – a masterpiece. The first thing you want to do is back up all your pictures.

 

It is important to interact with other photographers. The best way to do this is to become a part of online forums and camera clubs. Browse around and you will find plenty of excellent groups that eat, sleep and breathe photography. These forum members are usually more than ready to answer any queries or doubts you might have related to the subject. It is a good idea to become a member of a group whose interests are similar to yours. You will find a wealth of information in terms of tutorials, tips on improving your techniques, equipment reviews and so on.

Thank you Friends, Hope you enjoyed

KEIKO - MY HOBBY

I have some hobbies.

One of them starts when I was kid. I like reading stories and comics. There are many interesting TV programs in Japan, but I could  watch TV for only 1 hour in my family role when I was child. So I read something every day. I was getting to addict in comics. There were varieties of stories, I was never bored it. Many Japanese comics are translated to many languages and they are read in the world now. It is one of Japanese culture and I'm proud of that.

It is impossible to do snowboarding in Perth, but it's my hobby. I went to snow perk every weekend in winter when I was in 20's. If I have chance to go to Hokkaido in Japan in winter, I will do snowboarding. Hokkaido is the best place for snowboarding in Japan, there is a lot of powdery snow and many Australian visit there.

I love drinking coffee and Japanese tea. I brought some Japanese tea ceremony stuffs in Australia, because I had been learning it. Japanese tea ceremony is not just drinking a cup of tea with sweets. It taught me Japanese hospitality, such as how to organised the ceremony, how to put seasonable flowers in vase, how to cook meals for ceremony, how to wear the Kimono, so on. Most of students were ladies, so I enjoyed learning it with chatting. It is difficult to do it now. I want to learn barista near future. There are many good cafes in Australia, but if I can make it at home, I will be happier.

ELLA-MY CITY

Mae Sot city- Mae Sot city is the city that I was growing up. Mae Sot is a city in Wester Thailand that shares a border with Myanmar to West. Mae Sot is a small city but very beautiful. The city is part of Tak Province. It is home to the district headquarters of Mae Sot District and is the main gateway between Thailand and Burma.

        

Mae Sot is a place of ethnic diversity. We also had a lot of excellent food to try and also had some excellent Thai, Burmese, and India food. Very friendly owners, with great food at an incredibly low price. Mae Sot city also had a great Market place. The city also had Thailand and Myanmar border bridge. If we want to visit Myanmar border we just cross the bridge by foot or get a motorbike or taxi.

                      

                                         

                                    

Mae Sot has also become the most important jade and gem center along the border, with much of the trade controlled by Chinese and Muslim immigrants from Myanmar. Again, Mae Sot is a small city that had a lot of natural beauty places, trees, and clean air. 

                   

                                                   

                              
That's a part of my city (Mae Sot, Tak)...Hope you all like my city.

NAT - DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THAILAND AND AUSTRALIA

My home country is Thailand, I've been living in Australia for four years. I have noticed many differences between two countries. These include festivals and food. 

Thailand has many festivals such as SongKran or Thai new year and Loikratong. Australia has festivals such as Christmas and Easter. During SongKran we have ceremonies using water and a big water fight. For Loikratong we make Kratong, which are little decorated rafts that we float down the river. For Christmas, Australians celebrate by giving presents and for Easter give chocolate eggs and bunnies.

Thailand has very nice food and we have many famous dishes. My favourites are Tomyum soup, Pad Thai, Green curry and Thai beef salad. Thai food is famous for been very spicy. Traditional Australian food includes damper and billy tea. Kangaroo and lamb are traditional Australian meats.

KATHY - MY CITY

I used to work and lived in Shanghai.But I was born in Nanchang which is the capital city of Jiangxi Province.you may not have heard of this name of city.The name literally means"a prosperous south part of China". It is located in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the River through Jiangxi  Province has called Gan River . The Gan River is mother river of local people, traversing through the whole city.Nanchang bordering the Poyang Lake, this lake which is one of China‘s five major lakes。
I think the most impressive things about Nanchang that has a lot of lakes, 16 lakes in Nanchang city which covers an area of more than two hectares.For example,the biggest lake is Yao Lake which covers area of 1473 hectares, and AIXI Lake covers area of 400 hectares,Even Qingshan Lake which we often visit,covers an area of 305 hectares.Lakes and rivers in or around the city bring a special kind of charm to the city.

In addition, Nanchang Port is the most important water transportation transfer point. From this Port you can travel by ships to visit Poyang Lake, Stone Bell Hill, Poyang Lake Bird Protection Area, Dagu Hill and other attraction.

Nanchang is a famous historical and cultural city with a history of over 2,200 .The Pavilion of Prince Teng is the most famous.

The city is also famous for its delicious food. The traditional Nanchang Cuisine (Gan Cuisine) plays a very important role in Chinese food culture. When you are visiting this place, you should have a taste of Gan Cuisine. You can also enjoy other nice cuisines.There are so many famous leisure food streets in Nanchang.

Food and Leisure street in Nanchang (2017)

In the past 40 yeas,China has made tremendous progress and achievements. Every city has invested many manpower and financial resources in infrastructure construction.such as a new international airport in Nanchang and Metro line 1 and line 2 are in service now. But we sacrificed the environment in which we live.Air pollution is a very serious problem,especially in big cities. Fortunately China government has realized this problem. I wish the air in our country will be as fresh as Australia one day
Nanchang is also the birthplace of the Chinese army,so we call it"Hero City".
