Photography - added benefit is that you will usually go out for this
Music - an instrument is good
Drawing/Painting
Programming (hit or miss, I found learning unity was fun)
Video making - recording video games playthroughs, cooking, and so on.
Finally, one that usually everyone probably also may mention - Therapy - not a hobby but having to be able to talk about it is often good
This is of course not an exhaustive list - but it depends on what your interests are. Hope this is a good pointer to what you're looking for.
