Hi all!

While making a presentation about my family and their hobbies and interests and I found myself using the word "hoşlanmak" in almost every sentence... I don´t like to have a boring and repetitive text, but I´m afraid I don´t know what other expressions I could use when I have to talk about someone´s hobbies and interests.

For exemple: My father likes cooking. My sister likes to work in the garden. My sister-in-law likes swimming. My mother likes reading.

Can you help me to find differents ways to says these things without using all the time the same verb/expression?

Thank you so much in advance for your contributions!
