Hello, my dear friend! It was a great pleasure to get this wonderful letter from you. Sorry for my late answer.
So I'm glad to know that my position related with such question is really important for you.
According to my own opinion, it is always nice to spend your free time reading different interesting books. Frankly speaking, it's my favorite hobbies.
For example, most of all I prefer novels. What's the reason? I consider, this litery genre is able to immerse you in the world which allow you to know about brave and noble heroes and their exciting adventures.
"The Gadfly" - novel written by Ethel Lilian Voynich. The content of this fascinating book impressed me so much! If only I could tell you about that!
The story centres on the life of the protagonist, Arthur Burton, as a member of the Youth movement, and his antagonist, Padre Montanelli. A thread of a tragic relationship between Arthur and his love, Gemma, simultaneously runs through the story. It is a story of faith, disillusionment, revolution, romance, and heroism.
The book, set during the Italian Risorgimento, is primarily concerned with the culture of revolution and revolutionaries. Arthur, the eponymous Gadfly, embodies the tragic Romantic hero, who comes of age and returns from abandonment to discover his true state in the world and fight against the injustices of the current one. The landscape of Italy, in particular the Alps, is a pervading focus of the book, with its often lush descriptions of scenery conveying the thoughts and moods of characters.
Besides, you shoudn't forget to do something else. I can recommend to walk outside, listen to good music, attend addictive exhibitions and theatres, look for new friends, travelling and, of course, relax. Travelling by sea is very popular. Large ships and small river boats can visit foreign countries and different places of interest within their own country.
Have nice holidays!
