How side hustles turned everyone's leisure activities into work
Tommy Wylde has always enjoyed teaching other people about wildlife. When he wasn't at his office job, Wylde would use his love and knowledge of nature to lead groups on bird-watching and wildlife-spotting expeditions. When he suddenly found himself with a bit more free time during the pandemic, he decided to put this passion to good use and generate a little cash while he was at it. Wylde used his previous experience building websites to launch a wildlife information website called Floofmania in November 2020.
