    How do you spend your spare time？There will be different answers to it. Most people in Poland(波兰) have their own ways of spending free time. They have many different hobbies, which help them to get away from their everyday problems and spend their free time happily.

    Many Polish (波兰的) people like travelling. They always look for new places that they have never been to and add new and exciting experiences to their journey. Some of them like to climb mountains; others like to go to a sea or a lake to swim, because these can make them get exercise and are good for their health.

    Many Polish people also like to do sports in their free time. They are usually crazy about football, and football is regarded as the Polish national sport. Many football fans may support a certain team, so they go to watch every match of the team they support, and they buy many things that have relations with the team. Watching sport and doing it are both good ways to relax.

    In addition, doctors say that doing sports is very good for health. Many people in town, especially young men, often go to the gym to attend the exercise classes to keep fit.

    People in different countries have different hobbies around the world. For example, in America people's favorite hobby is watching TV in their free time. It is the main entertainment for Americans to watch TV at least one hour in a day. 96% of the Americans see watching TV as their first hobby. The second one is going to the cinema or doing some sports. Next is reading or gardening. Also, fishing is a very popular hobby.

    In England, it's quite different. People there like to go to the flea market(跳蚤市场). They like to go there to see if there is something new. In addition, Englishmen like drinking tea.

    Russians like reading very much. Wherever you go, you will see the people who are reading carefully. Germans like reading as well. According to a survey, Germans read 15 books on average in 2012.

    Different people have different hobbies. Some like growing flowers, some like singing and others like building model ships. I'm interested in stamps and started to collect them in 2008.

    My father works in a big company. He always goes abroad. Eight years ago, when he was working in America, he sent home a letter with a beautiful stamp on the envelope(信封). I liked the stamp very much. From then on I have always asked my father to send me different stamps from different countries. Later I joined a club and I have made many friends there. They helped me learn more about stamps and always traded(交换) stamps with me. And I got some special stamps from them.

    Now I have more than a thousand stamps. When I look through these beautiful stamps, I feel relaxed and happy. I can enjoy the beautiful designs of stamps.
