Tired of the same old free-time activities?

Are you looking for a new way to spend your free time? If
you are an active person, you may have tried a lot of different
leisure activities. However, there are still some that are rather
unusual and unknown.
Have you ever heard of volcano surfing?
Probably not, right? This is one of the most dangerous hobbies you could do.
Volcano surfing is an outdoor activity performed on volcano slopes1. Riders go
up and slide down, very similar to snowboarding. Some of its dangers include
falling off and possibly getting cut by the rough volcanic rocks. However, if you
are careful enough, you may have lots of fun.
And what about cliff camping?
Well, cliff camping is not for the weak! But if you like the outdoors and
are not afraid of heights, try sleeping hundreds of feet off the ground in a
tiny portable2tent. Even though standing is safe, it may feel
extremely dangerous. So, we recommend sitting or lying in your tent as it is more
comfortable. And you must wear your harness3all the time, even to sleep.
Give these activities a try! You will love them!
