Autumn is so good. You can optimistically sip coffee on the terrace, ride your bike to school and invite your friends to impromptu picnics. Deep down you know that winter is quickly approaching. And who doesn’t love to sit by the window, drink herbal tea, covered in a pink wool blanket and take in a book?
