| Chabad.earth | https://chabad.earth | I like visiting Chabad houses, especially when traveling. On this site everyone can make a map of their own that shows the Chabad houses they've been to/want to visit. |
| 40k Travel Map | https://40k.earth https://40k.earth/chisness |
Build your own travel map and compare with friends (40,000 km is the circumference of the earth). |
| Carrot Museum | https://carrotmuseum.org | I've collected some artworks including along some unusual themes like carrots (my favorite food). |
| Hotel Eggs | https://hoteleggs.com https://instagram.com/hotel_eggs |
I like eating eggs. Unfortunately most hotels do not make very good ones (or maybe I'm staying at the wrong hotels), not to mention the oils they're likely using. |
| Rotisserie Ride | https://rotisserieride.com | In late 2019 I came up with an idea to ride a bicycle from LA to NYC via Chicago consuming rotisserie (or other supermarket) chicken each day. I hope that this will happen and apparently it is only seasonally viable in fall. |

| Travel | I spent perhaps a bit too much time traveling. Highlights:
|
| Outdoors | I enjoy walking, hiking, and cycling, and living in a place with rental bikes is very critical! |
| Indoors | I like food, but mostly eat the same thing every day. (Send me taste enhancements.) I also like playing games, including poker. |
| Tennis | A childhood normal hobby, then very occasional interest, then semi-obsession from 2021-2023, and now TBD. |
| Art | I think art collecting is overlooked and lots of the best art (and furniture) is not very expensive and more accessible than you'd expect, even if you also know nothing about art history! |
| Clothing | I like getting a good deal and for a period decided that I should therefore spend unprecedented amounts of time on getting good deals on clothing that I certainly did not need and would often never wear. But now I know a lot of things about clothing brands and value and, kind of, what to wear. Or maybe not in the case of this hoodie:
|
| Investments | I've made a few small investments in startups including Manifold Markets and Clearspace. |
