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?

Great way of learning an area is going for a walk and filling in questions for street complete, it's an app which let's you improve open street map. The data isn used in loads of places especially cycling apps where things like road surface are useful.

Sounds boring but it's actually really interesting

This sounds pretty nice actually. I really like the concept of openstreetmaps and I'm surprised what kind of details you can find on it. Do you know if anything like street complete exists for iOS? Unfortunately my current phone is not an android, but might switch to one in the future.
