What are some activities which are free or inexpensive that I can do to entertain myself / keep good mental health while searching for a better paid job? (sh.itjust.works)

I recently moved to a new city and don’t know anybody here yet.

I want to try out some things and meet new people and avoid sitting at home all day (but sometimes is ok)

My ideas are hiking, volunteering and reading. What would you recommend? Any good ideas?

Disc golf. Low bar to entry, many free courses.

Martial arts are also a great outlet. Many have forms practice on their school sites.

No disc golf options nearby sadly. Martial arts , I have a few options. I think there is an aikido and a jijutsu dojo nearby.

Prices are pretty high for classes here though. I’m also not sure what kind of martial arts i would enjoy. I tried judo and Brazilian jijutsu in the past, but found it a bit difficult to enjoy.
