car mechanics, fixing electronics, fishing

I find getting my hand dirty working on engines or even sanding and painting cars is a great escape for me. Working on electronics is a nice little pastime I like to teach me patience and sharpen my problem solving skills at home. And well fishing is a great escape and a great time to build bonds with friends and family.
