ABSTRACT
Leisure time is not one of the topics often addressed by sociologists in Poland, even though it remains the experience of almost everyone who lives in liquid modernity. This issue covers an extremely wide range, it is impossible to include it, let alone close it, in a small volume. However, we believe that the category of free time is worth analyzing, especially since the recent experience of the COVID-19 pandemic has changed our everyday life, also in terms of free time. Perhaps the questions that arise on this occasion can turn into research questions and result in further studies.
