[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. I love nature, but I hate all exercises including hiking. I like the smell of grass, soil, wood and I don't mind smell of animals. We don't have pet at home but I am used to having pet growing up like hamster, rabbit, chicken, turtle, bird etc but no cats or dogs.

I am not a big fan of all sorts of flower, and my kids have pollen allergy anyways. I am interested in leaf but I hate all kinds of bugs or insects. I live star gazing, study weather pattern, reading map etc growing up. I am a hobby artists so I love painting landscape.

Life has been hectic, I am exhausted and have not done much with my kids with the things I mention above. I still have passion, but busy work and housework and taking care of 2 kids under 6 are exhausting. I remember my dream job was to work at zoo or aquarium or study soil when I was little. I thought my kids would be like me, just a bit disappointed. DH only wants to stay home every weekend.[/quote]

I find it weird that you claim to love nature yet hate so many parts of it. To me, walking and hiking (and gardening) are the easiest and cheapest ways to be in nature and benefit from the lowered stress levels. I would much rather go for a long walk or hike than pay $20 to see a bunch of animals in cages.

Maybe your kids would enjoy a nice long walk or hike?[/quote]
