- cpach 7y agoUsually it’s just the regular stuff: Browsing the web or watching TV-series/movies. I also try to see some local music gigs once in a while, I find that very rewarding. Doesn’t have to be a world-class performance, it’s nice just seeing friends, listening to some music and grab a few beers.
