It’s here, and I couldn't be happier! Fall (or Autumn, if you will). At least, I think it’s here… you never know here in Taiwan, the past week might have just been a fluke. Don’t get me wrong, I love Summer. But Summer in Taiwan is not quite the tanned skin-cocktails on the beach-beautiful warm nights-scenario that is usually associated with the Sunny Season. Because of the humidity here, it’s more of a can barely breathe-clothes sticking to body-frizzy hair-walking from one air conditioner to the next-fiasco.
I like Fall for many reasons. I love when the trees start changing color, and the refreshing, cool breeze in the mornings while I wait at the bus stop. I like that I don't have to have the air conditioner blasting away 24/7, and that I can snuggle up under my little IKEA blanket while watching TV, with a nice cup of tea.
It's also getting colder, which means that it’s time for my butler to get out my Fall/Winter wardrobe from storage and get it dry-cleaned. And of course, by butler I mean me, and by Fall/Winter wardrobe I mean jeans, and by dry-cleaned I mean wash it in my 93-year old leaking washing machine.
So, happy Fall to all my Fall-loving-Northern-Hemisphere friends, and happy Spring to the ones down under.
YES please, bring on summer, sun, beach, bikini's and brannas!
ReplyDeleteIs the weather getting nicer in South Africa right now? Spring/Summer time there is the best!
ReplyDeleteI definitely LOVE fall. Anytime I can head out in my favorite hoodie, jeans, and boots while enjoying a hot latte is a good day in my book ;). One thing I like about cold weather, you can always add layers and blankets...in hot weather, there is only so much you can take off haha.
ReplyDeleteI love fall, too...too bad about the butler though! It would definitely make life so much easier!
