leisure activity  

Definición

  • Leisure is generally seen as one of the most valued areas of our everyday lives. Many people are impatient to retire from work to pursue those activities that they enjoy the most—for example, traveling, visiting family members, going to museums, and so forth—and thus live a “life of leisure.” The importance that we attach to “leisure,” then, only makes sense when we contrast it with “work,” and this comparison is a relatively recent phenomenon.
