My Favourite Hobby — Мое любимое хобби

I have many hobbies. I like playing basketball, watching TV, playing computer games.
But my favourite hobby is collecting postal stamps. When I buy my stamps, I usually ride a bike to do it or run to the Post Office or special shops and buy my stamps there.
When I get my stamps, I will trade with some of my friends and my brother. We also put them into stamp cases. I started this hobby in the summer of 2001.
My best friend got me interested in stamps collecting. Whenever I went over to his house, he had his cards out and we looked at them. He has a huge and very interesting collection of stamps. I usually spend around 20-30 grivnas to buy some stamps every month. I like doing this hobby, because I like trying to get the stamps that are worth a lot of money.
I also like stamps that have pictures of animals and birds. I like flora and fauna stamps. It shows how diverse the Earth life is.

Мое любимое хобби

У меня много хобби.

Мне нравится играть в баскетбол, смотреть телевизор, играть в компьютерные игры.
Но моим любимым хобби является коллекционирование почтовых марок. Когда я покупаю марки, я часто езжу за ними на велосипеде или бегаю на почту, либо в специализированный магазин и покупаю там мои марки.
Когда у меня есть марки, я могу обменять их с некоторыми моими друзьями или моим братом. Мы кладем их в специальные коробки. Я увлекся этим летом 2001 года.
Мой лучший друг увлек меня коллекционированием марок. Когда бы я ни пришел к нему домой, он достает свои марки, и мы просматриваем их. У него огромная и очень интересная коллекция
марок. Каждый месяц я обычно трачу 20-30 гривень на покупку марок. Мне нравится это хобби, так как мне нравится доставать дорогие марки.
Мне нравятся марки, на которых изображены животные и птицы. Мне нравятся марки о флоре и фауне. Они показывают, насколько разнообразна жизнь на Земле.
