And just like that, autumn is upon us once again! I honestly don’t know where summer went, and it feels like summer left in the blink of an eye. Even though I’m going to miss warm, sunny weather and long days spent without the stress of classes, I’m more than ready to welcome back the cool, windy days of fall. Autumn is my favorite season for so many reasons, and I feel like there’s a wide variety of activities and fun that everyone can have during this season. From exploring autumn’s beauty in the vibrant colors of nature to enjoying cozy days with friends and family, fall brings a breath of fresh air to every year. If you’re looking for some fun things to do and see this autumn, I’ve got you covered with a list of some of my favorite activities for fall.
Bucket lists are so fun because you can collect all your ideas in one place and check off each item that you’ve done. I made my fall bucket list on a piece of paper and personalized it by using stamps and fall-inspired images from an old planner I had. You can customize your bucket list in any way you choose, such as handwriting it, creating a digital bucket list, or even simply typing everything out in your phone. However you choose to create your bucket list, the point is to have a list of fun things you’d like to see and do this season.
Now, let’s get into the fun part: looking for all the autumn inspiration for your bucket list! I’ve included some of my favorite activities for fall below, but there’s so much more that you can do for fall. Include whatever gets you excited and in the mood for autumn in your bucket list, and get ready to have an amazing autumn.
