On weekends, I don't feel like sitting in the city at all. How can you spend your time creatively, so much so that you can really relax and get a lot of impressions?
PHOTOSESSION
Autumn is a great time for vivid natural photo shoots, without any filters or Photoshop. Even if you are not a photographer at all, take a camera, props and take pictures of yourself and your family. Props can be, for example, a bright checkered blanket, a basket of apples or a mirror. Now it is the mirror that is a new trend in photo shoots. And in the forest with such an accessory, you can create truly mystical shots. Taking pictures of just an autumn forest will also give you great pleasure.
You can try to photograph trees, insects, birds from unusual angles, and then see what you get. Perhaps in the future it will become your hobby.
One day hike
Get out of the ordinary for the whole day. Take a snack with you: soup in a thermos, fruit, sandwiches. But the best thing is to take a pot and cook something for yourself in the open air. Even tea and coffee brewed in the fresh air tastes much better than at home.
Collect natural material
If you have children, this kind of pastime will not only be fun, but also rewarding. Collect twigs, leaves, bark, all this will come in handy for children in kindergarten and at school for decorating crafts. Or maybe you yourself love creativity and create something very beautiful and unusual for decorating an apartment? You can make a bird feeder and discuss where you will hang it.
