Well hello to you my reader chums! Adventure is my top priority in life and I love exploring the unknown.

Remember that old saying about all work and no play making Jack and Jill dull? While a lot of work might not make you dull or less sharp at your job, a lack of downtime does not encourage a healthy work-life balance. This is why you should always have hobbies that you love and are ready to jump into at any given time.

By taking the time to enjoy recreational activities you are actually setting yourself up for more success in your freelancing adventures, business journey, or just as an employee. If you like a bit of adventure in your downtime then here are some hobbies you need to try.

One of the first things that you need to try out is polo. Maybe you have never heard of this sport before or maybe you have but have never thought that this could be for you.

Climbing up on horseback may be something that you find yourself gravitating towards after you have tried it.

This sport is called the Sport of Kings in part for its gallantry. Get an excellent horseback ride and learn some equestrian skills while you chase after a ball. Polo is also a uniform sport so if you get on a team you will have gorgeous Polo team shirts given to you.

If adventure is your middle name then you can't afford to miss this one.

Parkour is one of those heart-pounding sports that is rated Grade A for adventure. You'll be vaulting, leaping, and flipping on the landscape with this sport.

If you like a lot of physical activity then this is definitely something that you should consider.

Getting around obstacles becomes an art form for those who love this sport. You can blend athleticism with horses.

If you've never heard of this unusual adventure then you are not alone. Many people haven't. However, it's worth it for you to take a deep dive into this unique world of us sporting and hobbying.

You're going to be placed in a room full of trampolines, after which you will start bouncing and dodging balls to your opponent's throw at you.

Get your feet wet with underwater hockey. You're going to get quite a rush when you try out this sport. Of course, since humans are not fish you're going to need some equipment to go underwater.

Masks and snorkels as well as a small stick should help you navigate your way around the underwater with this sport. This is all you need to get going and you are sure to enjoy all the time when you are practicing this sport.

If you're ready to take on a brand new hobby that is going to see you tackling adventures and having something to talk with your friends about, then any of the three hobbies that have been described here may be just what you are looking for. Always do your research into each of them before you select one you think is right for you.
