My older brother has decided to collect mugs, imagine that. He has already got eight mugs from different places he has visited. It's a nice collection but it takes up so much room. Why do people collect things? What do you collect or what would you like to collect? What other hobbies are popular with teenagers in your country?

Hello Ben,

Thanks for your email! Collecting things can be fascinating. People often collect for sentimental reasons, to preserve memories, or because they find the items historically or aesthetically interesting. Some enjoy the thrill of the hunt and the satisfaction of completing a set.

Personally, I collect vintage postcards. I love looking at the old designs and imagining the stories behind them.

In my country, popular hobbies among teenagers include gaming, playing sports like football, and creating content for social media. Many also enjoy listening to music and watching movies.

Best regards,
