Tired of the same old free-time activities?

Are you looking for a new way to spend your free time?
There are still some activities that are rather unusual or
unknown, even for people who are active.
Have you ever heard of volcano surfing?
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 the
slope, in a similar way to snowboarding. Some of the dangers include falling and
possibly getting cut by the rough volcanic rocks.
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, you can try sleeping hundreds of feet off the
ground in a tiny portable2 tent, which may feel extremely dangerous. So, we
recommend sitting or lying in your tent as it is more comfortable. And you
must wear your harness3 all the time, even to sleep.
