ROUND-UP

🌍 What 30-Something Hobbies Reveal About Each Country

In short, hobbies are a mirror of reality.
30대의 취미는 그 나라의 일·삶의 균형, 도시 구조, 소득 수준, 문화 코드가 그대로 비친다.

서유럽·미국은 피트니스 + DIY + 아웃도어, 한국·일본은 콘텐츠 + 카페 + 짧은 클래스, 중국·인도는 디지털 + 성장 산업, 브라질·호주는 바다·음악·야외에 강하게 물들어 있다.

나의 취미를 한 번 떠올려 보면, “내가 어떤 나라, 어떤 도시에서, 어떤 시대를 살고 있는지”가 생각보다 선명하게 보일지도 모른다.
