#4I build boats.
I work in an office/workshop for my 9-5 and then I build dinghy, canoes, catamaran and so on. have sold some, been commissioned for some. depending on what it is and the materials needed can take a month or six fitting it in around work and family.

#6I have kids and live in a part of the world with zero family and friends, it rains a lot and there's a pandemic going on. I spent 99% of the last 6 months in exactly the same house. That's my Side Hustle.
