The Hobbyist – Unleash Your Inner Artist

*Prices are reflective of the publishing date of this article 05/11/2018

We’re not sure how Amman got the reputation of having nothing fun to do besides stuffing one’s face with food or over-drinking. If this sounds like your usual schedule too, what you probably need is a hobby. And no that doesn’t include binge-watching the latest show on Netflix or being glued to your phone, aimlessly scrolling through memes or watching Instagram stories from your friends abroad. Follow this series, inspired by the many recommendations from our Tipsters, and find out about the coolest artistic hobbies and courses around. You’ll find at least one that’ll keep you busy this winter.
