   Yes, travelling is a hobby. Other hobbies are cooking, dancing, swimming and playing computer games. I think hobbies make our life more interesting.

3. My hobby is playing the piano. I play it at home almost every day. I started when I was a child. I like learning new songs and playing music for my family. It makes me feel happy and calm. Sometimes I play fast songs, and sometimes I play slow ones. I think music is a great way to show feelings. I want to get better and play more difficult music. Playing the piano is my favourite hobby.

4. Yes, I have seen a good collection of coins. It was my granny’s collection. She keeps it in a special box. There are coins from many countries, and some of them are very old. One coin is from Italy, and another one is from Japan. I liked looking at them because they are all different. Some coins are big, and some are small. The pictures on them are very interesting. I think collecting coins is a great hobby.

5. My mother is a theatregoer. Her favourite theatre is the Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow. She likes ballets best. The Nutcracker and Swan Lake are her favourite performances. She also enjoys plays, but not as much as ballets. Sometimes she takes me with her, and I like it too.
