classic hallmarks of fall at home. </p> <p>“Yes, I would miss fall on campus, but what would I get instead? Watching the leaves and seasons change in a city with parks and green spaces, more bakeries than people, and a reputation built on the concept of coziness.”</p> <p>See how Oli spent his fall in Scandinavia enjoying the transition from summer to autumn, exploring a new location, and finding new ways to celebrate holidays like Halloween and Thanksgiving with friends.</p> <div
