Vals' Activity menu

Welcome to a bit of my life! Here I list some activities I like, in case that makes it easier for us to schedule a hang out or find common interests :)

Less liked activities (things I'm generally not into)

I'm able to do any of these, but they're not my favorite for regular activity.

• High effort food (higher end restaurants, or 30min+/person home cooking) — I like usual food a lot already
• Loud noise environments (crowded bars) — I enjoy dancing during parties - music isn't noise when I'm dancing but is when I'm talking to people
• High risk & high danger things (eg. high free solo)
• Doing the same activity too much — I get satiated. Maybe a few days for skiing or hiking, an hour for puzzles, many hours for cuddling or conversation
