Short Essay On My Hobby

Short Essay On My Hobby ,,,,

A hobby is an activity which is pursued in leisure time, mainly for recreation and replenishing the energy lost through work.There are several hobbies which one may pursue, such as photography, stamp collecting, reading etc. A hobby should be pursued according to one's naturc of work and aptitude.

Certain hobbies such as photography are very expensive. Hobbies like gardening require hard physical work. Reading requires some serious intellectual exercise.

My hobby is stamp collecting. Every country in the modern world issues stamps off and on. Stamps arc used to commemorate the birthday of renowned personalities of the nation, to mark some important events and so on others occasions.

Stamps arc of different colours. sizes and designs. They contain pictures of birds, persons, animals, plants. factories etc. They mention their fiscal value and sometimes dates. months and years.
There are several philately societies concerned with the activity of stamps collecting. I'm a member of one such society known as Indian Philately Society.



I have about five thousand postage stamps. I have arranged them in albums according to the countries belonging to different continents. I have also made a list of stamps of different kinds such as scenery, birds, animals. people, scientific inventions, and discoveries, those relating to historical and geographical spheres etc. I'm happy of my collection of stamps and very proud of them too.
