Weather

In many Eurasian countries, summers are hot, temperatures are debilitating, and the sun stings and burns. Not everyone likes this weather, many feel bad, get sunstrokes and burns, are afraid — and justifiably — to leave home in the afternoon, because it is not only unpleasant, but also dangerous to health.
Autumn, on the other hand, pleases with a comfortable temperature, approaching coolness, and gentle sun. It shines brightly, but it's not exhausting — it's a pleasure to walk through the park on a clear September morning.
In early autumn, the rains are still not cold and bring freshness — the smell of rain is relaxing and invigorating.
Even in the rain, which is especially common in autumn, you can find its advantages. It is a special feeling to sit with loved ones while watching a movie under a blanket, when the rain drums outside the window — the house immediately becomes so cozy, warm and pleasant. Autumn weather is one of the reasons why you can love this time of year, because it is diverse, which means that everyone will find beauty in it.

Bright colors

Many people love autumn because the dullness of everyday life is diluted with bright autumn colors — yellow, red, red. Artists paint vivid, fresh, vivid autumn paintings there is nothing more beautiful than the riot of warm colors of nature outside the window. These colors do not last long, because what burns brightly always burns very quickly — but this is not a reason to be upset.
Of course, falling colored leaves are a harbinger of the approaching cold weather, without them the trees look lifeless and drooping, but autumn gives us plenty of opportunity, albeit in a short time enjoy the warmth of nature, its bright, vivid colors, walk along a carpet of colored leaves, collect a bouquet and remember how happy we can be.

Cozy evenings

In this article, we have already talked about how pleasant it is to be in the company of loved ones watching a movie, cooking dinner together, playing board games, or just chatting over a cup of tea when it's rainy outside the weather, and the house is warm and loving. It is precisely for such evenings that autumn is worth loving — they bring unforgettable emotions, strengthen relationships with loved ones and allow you to forget about routine and life's difficulties for a while.
You can spend such evenings in different ways, for example, cook cocoa, take the warmest blanket and sit by the window, read a book, watch movies and enjoy the sounds of autumn. You can light a scented candle, chat about various topics with your loved one, drink a cup of spiced tea, forget about your problems for a while and devote time to yourself and your loved ones — this is what autumn is for with her cozy cool evenings, which should be spent at home with loved ones.

Spices

Autumn is the time for spicy dishes, cinnamon, ginger, which can be added to tea, cocoa, coffee, and wine. For summer, these flavors are usually too heavy — few people like coffee or tea with cinnamon or ginger on a hot summer evening — in this weather, you usually want cool cocktails, cold water, and fresh juices.
On autumn evenings, the abundance of spices brings real pleasure, warms the soul and inspires. After all, it's a pleasure to come home after work or school on a rainy evening, change into warm dry clothes and make tea with cinnamon, vanilla or ginger. In addition, spices can be added not only to drinks, but also to dishes, such as pies, sauces, pastries and much more.

Harvest

Autumn is an amazing time when healthy, aromatic, and everyone's favorite fruits and vegetables ripen. Sweet sweet apples, large grapes, ripe pears, pumpkins, cucumbers, tomatoes of different colors and sizes — everything you could ask for. All these fruits and vegetables ripen in autumn and can be used to prepare delicious fresh meals for yourself and your loved ones.
Salads, soups, pastries, stews — all this is made from fresh vegetables and fruits, which are abundant at this time of year. In addition, these gifts of nature can be frozen or preserved so that in winter you can enjoy what is quite difficult to get during this cold season.
An interesting fact:
The record for growing the largest pumpkin in the world belongs to a Belgian farmer and is included in the Guinness Book of Records. The pumpkin weighs 1190.5 kilograms, which is slightly more than the mass of a small car. Imagine a car driving at high speed down a sloping road. Believe me, it's not as scary as if such a huge pumpkin were rolling down the road instead.
At the 2019 annual Topsfield Fair, a Connecticut farmer named Alex also presented a gigantic pumpkin weighing 1,040 kilograms. It seems incredible, but vegetables of this size do exist. A happy farmer paid $8,519 for an unusual pumpkin at the fair and said that he slept better that night than he had in 18 years. We can only be happy for him.

Walks

When, if not in autumn, you can afford long walks in the park alone or with your loved one. Enjoy the beauty of autumn — bright leaves and their reflection in puddles after heavy rain, coolness and freshness.
Dedicate the evening to yourself — walk through the streets of your hometown, collect a bouquet of bright leaves, take pictures of a building you have always liked, visit a place that brings warm memories — this the best cure for autumn blues and protection from the evening coolness.
Invite a loved one for a walk. Go to a place you haven't been for a long time, read a book on a park bench — in autumn the air is cleaner and fresher than ever, it invigorates and brings strength, and bright colors are pleasing to the eye.

Finally, we came to one of the main reasons why you can love autumn — lovers of delicious food will definitely love it. In autumn, when fresh and varied vegetables and fruits are abundant, you can not only eat them fresh, but also add them to pies.
Pies with pumpkin, cabbage, fragrant autumn apples and cinnamon, cherries and many other gifts of nature are a delicious addition to sweet tea and an interesting movie. Who doesn't love grandma's pies, especially those made with fresh vegetables and fruits? In addition, making such a pie together is a great reason to have fun with your family after a hard day's work.

Bright raincoats

It is not for nothing that most people associate autumn with rainy weather, because this time of year is usually not complete without heavy rains. An umbrella is not always a convenient device for protecting against rain, and it is not always at hand. In this case, a practical thing comes to the rescue — a raincoat that does not take up much space and may be needed at the most unexpected moment.
A raincoat can be not only comfortable, but also bright, stylish and unusual. Such a raincoat will protect not only from rain, but also from a bad mood. Don't be afraid to stand out from the crowd, don't be afraid of bright colors and patterns — cheer yourself up and those around you. Get yourself a colored umbrella or raincoat and keep yourself positive even on the rainiest autumn day.
Autumn is a favorite season

Cozy and comfortable clothes

Many people prefer soft, loose clothing because it is comfortable to move in, does not hinder movement and does not bother you during the day. In summer, for example, it is not always possible to wear such clothes, because most often these are loose pants, long skirts and sweaters that are very hot in. In winter, there are too many clothes, even if they are loose.
Clothing in autumn is a kind of golden mean. In early autumn, for example, you can wear loose T-shirts, long skirts, stretched sweaters, lightweight berets and thin raincoats.
In addition, if it's cool outside, you can bring along a large knitted warm scarf, wrap yourself in it on a park bench, read a book and drink coffee.
You always feel safer and more comfortable in oversized warm clothes. If you are anxious or have a bad day, it's cloudy and sad outside, put on your favorite soft sweater, put on some music that evokes positive emotions or pleasant memories and go breathe fresh air for a walk.

Nature

Autumn is really an amazing time of year, beautiful and fascinating in its own way. It is not for nothing that many brilliant poets dedicated their poems to her. Golden, yellow, orange leaves reflected in puddles and carried by the wind through the city, raindrops on clean glass, flocks of migratory birds — all this has its own unique beauty that is difficult to see and understand.
However, if you succeed, you can be called a truly lucky person, because you know how to see the beautiful in seemingly sad things. However, the fact that nature fades in autumn should not make you feel sad at all, because it means that after resting in winter, it will blossom with renewed vigor.

Changes

Every day people meet, break up, lose or make friends, acquire new things, or, on the contrary, get rid of them. However, autumn is a time of year when the spirit of change is particularly strong, it is literally in the air, and there is no need to be afraid of it at all.
Sometimes changes suddenly appear on the threshold of our lives that frighten us with their significance and surprise — whether positive or negative.
However, change is not always scary and bad, and maybe we should open up and meet them halfway.
For some reason, these changes are most noticeable in autumn. In summer, people relax and travel, in spring they enjoy the approaching warmth, in winter they celebrate the new year and spend cozy evenings with their families. In autumn, nature falls asleep, summer goes away, and changes, whether positive or not, are particularly acute.
People break up, get married, meet, change their lives drastically, move and much more. In fact, everything that is done really leads to the best. Don't be afraid of change, don't be afraid to stand out, don't be afraid to let go of a past you can't bring back. Open up to the world and things will definitely work out.

Rubber boots

Few people like incessant heavy rains, and even fewer people like puddles and mud that lasts for at least several days after such a rain. Shoes get wet, clothes get dirty — in general, it would seem that this weather is just a nuisance.
However, everything has its advantages, and one of the advantages of this weather is the ability to wear bright rubber boots in which your feet will definitely remain dry and your memories will be transferred to the most childhood.
If you consider yourself too old for this kind of thing, don't worry, everyone has every right to please themselves with bright clothes and warm memories, so forget about public opinion — no one will forbid you to enjoy any weather.

It is difficult to meet a person of any age who would not wait for an amazing New Year's time, accompanied by an appropriate mood. The waiting time is sometimes even brighter than the holiday itself — buying gifts, decorating the house, preparing, pre-New Year's chores — all this brings joy, especially if you spend this time with loved ones by people.
Late autumn is the best time to feel the New Year mood and start preparing gifts so as not to do it at the very last moment. This is one of the reasons why you can love late autumn — an amazing, full of vivid emotions waiting for a New Year's miracle is just beginning.

Autumn is probably the most romantic season of the year — bright colors, cozy atmosphere, coffee, hot tea, blankets and favorite movies and books. However, one of the most romantic things is going out in nature with a fire, bright stars and guitar songs. T
These trips bring people together, warm the soul in any weather and leave a vivid mark on memories forever.
In early autumn, the weather is great for hiking with a fire, guitar and hot tea. Go for a few days to the forest closest to your city — but remember, if you don't have much experience in such activities, choose places where people often visit, where you can't get lost and where you can't it's dangerous.
